Russia will not be allowed to have a veto on U.S. missile defense plans, programs, and decisions.

General Dunford, as the United States and Afghanistan negotiate for a troops presence in the country, can we continue to expect similar miscalculations in the future as referenced in the question above?

General Dunford, a U.N. report in February stated that Afghanistan lost $3.9 billion in 2012 due to public sector corruption.

DOD is currently spending about $10 billion more conducting the war effort in Afghanistan this year than was estimated would be necessary.

I do have some concerns with this legislation and just wanted to run through those really quickly.

I worry a little bit about the precedent that that decision might set.

Telling half-truths to maintain a monopoly or near monopoly position.

More broadly, I worry that such voluntary commitments take the Commission away from enforcing antitrust standards according to the rule of law, and instead toward an informal, and in my mind illegitimate, regulatory approach.

I believe that coordinated statements of policy engender confidence in the agencies and provide clearer guidance for businesses and practitioner, and that is what I would strive for, if confirmed.

I've co-sponsored both of these bills with my colleague Senator Hatch.

It's a pleasure to be here today. I thank you for chairing this hearing on a number of water and power measures.

The U.S. Supreme Court has recognized various substantive due process rights, and if I were fortunate enough to be confirmed as a district court judge, I would apply that precedent.

If I were interpreting a statute, I would look, first and foremost, to the text and the plain language of statute

I think some people may have 'ist' descriptions of me.

I question whether this prescribes a judicially manageable standard.

At a time when partisan suspicion about the electoral process is potentially corrosive, the court needs to exercise its independent judgment about laws such as Indiana's and guard against unfair burdening of the right to vote.

Even with current advancements, present-day technology and the cost of that technology places some real significant practical limitations on the use of drones.

I assume that part of your analysis in that has to do with the stealth factor by virtue of their size and the way many of them are operated.

A number of commentators have expressed concerns about the impacts that the proposed merger could have on certain so-called hub airports.

Many of my constituents in Utah complain about high fares flying into and out of Salt Lake City.

The financial stability of the airline industry is one of special concern.
