    Today, I announced that I’ll be seeking specific legislative, regulatory, or sub-regulatory solutions to help .

    #LowerHealthCareCosts
    I am asking health care experts for specific ideas in priority order about how to reduce cost to taxpayers, employers, and families, in writing, by March 1, 2019.

    Over the last two years, the Senate HELP Committee I chair has produced solutions that will have an impact on the lives of virtually every American.

    This shutdown is a failure by negotiators, both Democrat and Republican, and will produce a success for no one.

    This shutdown wastes taxpayer dollars, adds uncertainty to the economy and hurts small businesses around our national parks. A government shutdown should be as off limits in budget negotiations as chemical weapons are in warfare.

    When the government shut down under President Obama, I said that I was elected to make the government work for taxpayers, not to shut it down. The same is true under President Trump.

    I want to make sure Tennesseans know, as I have said from its beginning, that I believe there is no excuse whatsoever for this partial government shutdown.

    I was not elected to shut down the government, I was elected to make it work for taxpayers. This is a complete failure of negotiations and a success for no one.

    Shutting down the government should be as off limits to budget negotiations as chemical weapons are to warfare. I was not for a government shutdown under President Obama. I'm not for a government shutdown under President Trump.

    There is no excuse for even a short-term, partial government shutdown.

    I want to put a stop to this practice of the Senate breaking its rules to change its rules. I will not vote to turn the Senate into a rule-breaking institution, and I hope that my colleagues will not either.

    This is a country that prizes the rule of law – I’ve heard President Trump say that, and I've heard President Obama say that. How can we expect Americans to follow the rules when their number one rule making institution, the U.S. Senate, will not follow its own rules?

    Ending the legislative filibuster would be like allowing the home team to change the rules in the middle of the game, saying a nine yard gain is a first down, or a three point shot counts as four. That's not the rule of law.

    Good news— just signed the First Step Act, bipartisan prison reform legislation I cosponsored that was introduced by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman .

    I am glad to cosponsor Senator ’s First Step Act because it will help improve the federal criminal justice system and reform federal prisons.

    We have rules to follow. I want to put a stop to this practice of the Senate breaking its rules to change its rules. I will not vote to turn the Senate into a rule-breaking institution and I hope that my colleagues will not. Read my full statement here:

    In the final week before Christmas, the U.S. Senate accomplished quite a bit—and signed my PREEMIE reauthorization bill into law.

    Good news— has signed the into law.

    Agriculture is one of Tennessee’s most important industries, with more than 66,000 farms contributing tens of billions of dollars each year to our state’s economy. Today’s Senate passage of the farm bill is a big win for Tennessee’s 340,000 farmers.
