I look forward to working with our colleagues, as well as with the Administration, industry, and other stakeholders, to pass critically needed cyber legislation.

I think there may be bipartisan agreement with respect to punitive damages, and maybe general damages.

The Earned Income Tax Credit is the greatest anti-poverty program in the U.S. Government.

Medicaid is not only sustenance for all of long-term care... but it is also the easiest thing to attack.

I have never really understood why it is that the Republicans are so adamant against raising revenues, because it does make sense.

Income inequality is a vast problem for this country, and there are a variety of ways that that can be attacked.
