later today, the Senate will vote on the latest power grab by our friends across the aisle, a bill that is called the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act of 2021. The most important reason to vote against this legislation is that it…

in the coming days, thousands of politicians from 200 different companies will convene in Glasgow, Scotland, for the U.N. climate summit. They will step off their private planes and into meetings about the need to reduce global emissions…

I thank my friend, the senior Senator from Vermont, for his courtesy. Tomorrow, the Senate will vote on the latest iteration of what has come to be known as the Democrats' partisan power grab over our elections conducted overwhelmingly by…
if I may respond to the Senator from Maine. I am always interested in working on bipartisan bills and finding common ground. I think my record--and as the Senator knows, we have worked together on a number of things. The fundamental…
