Orrin Hatch

as we continue this historic effort in Congress to repeal harmful regulations, I rise today in support of H.J. Res. 66. Due to the aggressive regulatory posture taken by the Obama administration in its final months, Congress has had to…

I rise today to discuss the epidemic of suicide--a growing crisis that has devastated millions of families across our Nation. Over the past 8 years, the rate of deaths by suicide in our country has tripled. Let me repeat that. It has…

last Wednesday, the Trump administration unveiled the outlines of a tax reform plan, and, predictably, the plan has met with both praise and scorn from the usual sectors. Regardless of where the people might come down on the specifics of…

I rise today to speak out against the abuse of the Executive authority. Before I do, I want to compliment the distinguished Senator from Alaska for his cogent remarks here today on the floor. He is one of the great new additions to this…

I appreciate the testimony of all of you here today.

I ask unanimous consent that I be permitted to complete my remarks today. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
