If there were an ounce of courage in this body I would be joined by other senators… saying they will not tolerate this.

There's 150,000 students here from the Middle East. If 40% of them have overstayed their visa, don't we need to know where they are, what they're doing, are they obeying our rules?

I believe people ought to be treated fairly under the law. I see no reason why if the marriage contract conveys certain things that if you want to marry another woman that you can do that and have a contract. But the thing is is the religious connotation of marriage that has been going on for thousands of years, I still want to preserve that. And you probably could have both. You could have both traditional marriage, which I believe in. And then you could also have the neutrality of the law that allows people to have contracts with another.

I tell people I won't vote to go to war unless I'm ready to go or send my kids.

Some people say I chastise the Republican Party too much.

Giving someone a one-time stimulus check, or a one-time tax cut that expires doesn't allow the predictability that business needs.
