I reject the idea that passing criminal justice reform somehow means we are soft on crime.

If a state, let's say New York, enacted a law saying that any interactive computer service... doesn't remove CSAM within one hour of it being posted is liable for damages up to $ 1 million, a church with that type of interactive website could be strictly liable under that New York law.

I'm a little concerned that the current language inadvertently mandates interactive computer services to do for the government what the government itself is prohibited from doing.

That's especially telling here, he doesn't even have 51% of the votes in the Senate. This place is spit 50-50.

Senator Schumer's rash, partisan power grab should be seen for what it is—desperation and a failure to do what Joe Biden and Democrats ran on: unify.

Unvaccinated Americans aren’t the enemy, we should not be forcing employers to fire some of their valuable, and now hard to find, workers. We shouldn’t be threatening business owners with closure who do not wish to police their workforce’s decisions. Many simply cannot incur the cost of this enforcement in this economy.

We don't arrest people before they commit crimes. That's the sort of thing that's reserved for bad post-apocalyptic dystopian novels and movies.

You said, ‘The only people who benefit from this bill are gun lobbyists and criminals who want easier access to deadly weapons,’ how does this reflect the careful, measured judgment of one who would be in charge of enforcing our nation’s gun laws?

Because of the coronavirus, people have started to pay more attention to their diet and health, people now are more afraid of getting sick.

Upon learning that Senator Paul tested positive for COVID-19, I consulted the Attending Physician of the U.S. Congress Dr. Harding. Senator Paul advised me that because I have no symptoms or other risk factors, a COVID-19 test was not warranted, however, given the timing, proximity, and duration of my exposure to Sen. Senator Paul, Senator Paul directed me to self-quarantine for 14 days. That means no traveling or voting. But I will continue to make sure Utah's voice is heard as we shape the federal response to the Coronavirus through phone, text, email and whatever other means are available.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., supports the legislation and had hoped to pass it last Thursday, but Mitch McConnell was forced to delay consideration past the expiration date after Mike Lee, R-Utah, and two other senators Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and Ron Wyden said they would object. The House legislation, negotiated by White House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Republican leader Kevin McCarthy, would renew several provisions the FBI sees as vital to fighting terrorism but also aim to ensure stricter oversight of how the bureau conducts surveillance. PAUL : MY FISA AMENDMENT WILL KEEP Mike Lee had proposed a deal on the Senate floor Thursday extension of the current authorities if the Senate would consider several amendments to the White House bill that would further limit them. Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr, speaking on the floor for Mitch McConnell, objected to that deal, saying the Senate should instead pass the House bill. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., has pushed for FISA reforms. ( AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite) Were not a rubberstamp for the House of Representatives, were certainly not a rubber stamp for the Deep State.

This should not be controversial.

Congratulations @realDonaldTrump. I'm looking forward to your next five years in office. Those who voted to remove you were wrong. Very wrong.
