The FBI was among the 17 intelligence organizations concluding that Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered a multi-pronged influence campaign aimed at sowing discord among the American electorate and helping to elect Donald Trump.
The FBI does not have any information suggesting Russia will cease its attempts to interfere with United States elections or to otherwise attempt to undermine public confidence in United States democratic institutions.
I remain deeply concerned that any company beholden to foreign governments that do not share our values are not companies that we want to be gaining positions of power inside our telecommunications network.
We want and deserve environmental protections that work, not money to interests buying off those willing to sell the public health to the highest bidder.
I am concerned with this administration--I would be concerned with any administration, but this one especially with the relentless, politicized attacks on our Nation's law enforcement institutions.
notwithstanding what we sometimes hear about a deadlocked Washington, there are times when both parties work together. Three months ago, Republicans and Democrats came together, and we reached a bipartisan budget agreement. Republicans and…
Your job is not to weaken or unravel the bedrock environmental laws that were put in place by both Republicans and Democrats alike.

Unfortunately, abuse of the patent system is delaying patient access to new, more affordable, FDA-approved medicines.
It is going to be quite a shock to a lot of landowners, ranchers and all, in Texas and elsewhere when they see what it would mean.
Your budget would starve the Department of its ability to enforce environmental safeguards, protect wildlife, and manage our cherished public lands.
we ``new'' Members don't think to look up at the lights. I apologize, but I appreciate being recognized.
I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum call be rescinded. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senate is not in a quorum call. The Senator is recognized.
I have watched with pride a lot of our National Guard units around the country, but they're not law enforcement units, and they're not trained for that, and should not be.
I want to take a moment to highlight the benefits of international students and scholars who come to the United States to live and study and who have been unfairly penalized by the current administration's efforts to limit travel to our…
on March 21, 2018, Vermont lost one of its finest sculptors, Frank Gaylord. Frank Gaylord, a Granite City resident, was a beloved member of the Barre community. Frank influenced the city and its residents, and the city in turn influenced…
I would like to take a moment to recognize the life and achievements of Dan Akaka, a veteran, educator, U.S. Senator, and most importantly, a dear friend of mine. Dan passed away recently after 93 years of life imbued with the aloha…
