Contributions that have become a very part of the very fabric of our lives and our society. Millions of foreignborn millions of foreignborn who have come to the United States legally have become successful, patriotic citizens of the United States and we have been the beneficiary because of the opportunities that o...

Partisan issue. Plenty of democrats understand that the president s action has made it significantly harder for us to get off on the right foot in the new year on a number of issues that we already agree on, by and large. The junior senator from north dakota said the immigration order quote could poison any hope of compromise or bipartisanship in the new senate before its even started. Well, i agree with the sentiment. I hope shes wrong and i hope we can prove that wrong by saying that were not ...

Is a tax imposed by the virtue of this protection, the antitrust exemption that allows the league to threaten the blackout. I will split out point out that they Sports Coalition pointed to allegations that were provided to us from an executive that wishes to remain anonymous that the reason why those three playoff games that you alluded to in your opening statement, green bay, indianapolis, the reason why those threaten blackouts didnt occur, it was alleged was because the nfl pressured broadcas...

Now, im not going to let my government colleagues off the hook, because we also used to see a lot of senior government officials on the Government Coordinating Council side of the house engaged frequently in that business. Ive seen a diminishment of senior level engagement over the last decade. We need to fix that problem in two ways. Ceos and coos need to get supportive of this, so do senior government officials. We need tough decisions and risk outcomes to be decided and thats not going to hap...
