I can't wait to see my grandson, i'm on my way to Iowa.

We intend to be reasonable, but we don’t intend to abandon our priorities just as our Republican friends don’t want to abandon theirs. We have some leverage.

We’ll need new legislation to account for the Republicans’ latest attempt to undermine our health care system.

Under this law, if Wyoming or Alabama said any person could carry a concealed gun, they could come to Times Square, Penn Station carrying that gun -- concealed, the chaos that would result would be utterly amazing.

To lavish them (corporations) with huge tax breaks and ask the middle class to bear the cost—that’s about as backward as it gets.

We believe we ’ll get it in the omnibus( spending) bill because both House Republicans and Democrats want it, if DACA is in the bill,( President Trump) wo n’t veto it.

The bottom line is, the president listened to the arguments, we think we made a very reasonable and strong argument. And, to his credit, he went with the better argument.

Rather than writing a partisan bill that will benefit the wealthy and special interests, they should commit to working with Democrats, through regular order, to craft a bill in the light of day that puts the middle class and those struggling to make it first.

When you lose to somebody who has a 40 percent popularity, you don’t blame other things -- Comey, Russia -- you blame yourself, so what did we do wrong? People didn’t know what we stood for, just that we were against Trump. And still believe that.

We know the ACA is not perfect. But we also know what you’ve proposed is much worse.

We have an opportunity to go back to the drawing board, we are willing to debate and compromise on health care but we have to be included.

Time is not the problem in the present health care bill, the problem is the substance. It slashes Medicaid, which has become something that helps middle class New Yorkers and millions of Americans.

If I were them, I wouldn't want to go home and face the voters either.

The story coming out of the White House about why Mr. Comey was fired continues to change, and there is not god explanations for the change.

To destroy them would be a violation of law, he should turn them over to Congress and to the investigators. If there are no tapes, he should apologize to both Jim Comey and the American people.

The actions of the last week make all the more reason that he should not be attorney general.

Nothing less is at stake than the American people's faith in our criminal justice system and the integrity of the executive branch of our government.

I think we had a strategy and it worked, democrats and Republicans in the White House and Senate were closer to one another than Republicans were to Donald Trump.

If the President continues this way, there is a chance we could take back the Senate.
