It’s a sorry statement about how broken Washington is that we could not take advantage of this unique and sad moment in history and enact serious lobbying reform. We owed it to the people who sent us to Washington to root out corruption, and the Senate ...
Senator John Kerry
The Senate and the country need Senators of courage who are prepared to make their mark on history by standing with past profiles in courage, and defending not party, not partisanship, but defending principle and democracy itself.
Senator John Kerry
Our Founding Fathers would shudder to see how easily forces outside the mainstream now seem to effortlessly push some Senate leaders toward conduct the American people don`t want from their elected leaders: Abusing power. Inserting the government into our...
Senator John Kerry
In some ways she [Hillary Rodham Clinton] would be better because of what we did together. First, she has the Senate experience I didn`t have. Second, she would have had the eight years in the White House. I think she wouldn`t make as many mistakes becaus...
Bill Clinton
It would be nice to have a woman President. I think half the Senate should be women, half of Parliament, half the ruling mullahs. But that will never happen, darling!
Meryl Streep
You would like me to say that the veil will be ripped from the voters` eyes sometime between now and November, thereby restoring the proper version of Democracy to the House and Senate. I won`t say that, of course. The simple reason is, I don`t know.
Gwen Ifill
You know, there were 29 Democratic votes for censure in the Senate. And if the Republicans had any sense, they would have censured him before the `98 midterm election, and they would have won the election.
Chris Matthews
You cannot declare martial law without the support of Congress. It will be crazy for the President to declare martial law when we know that Congress does not approve of it, what with the present climate in the Senate,
Raul Gonzalez
Yesterday Jerry Springer bowed out of the Ohio Senate race. He said, `If I can`t run the most embarrassing campaign in America, then I`m out of here.`
Craig Kilborn
When you have a Senate that is 50 Democrats and 49 Republicans and one independent, it`s quite obvious that the only way we are going to get something done is if we work together.
Alicia Munnell
When his nomination comes before the United States Senate, Timothy Batten can count on my strong support... He is the right person for the job.
Andrea Hoffman
What`s going on in the Senate is kind of a politics of escalation. We`re getting sort of like the Mideast: pay back everybody when you`re in charge.
Alois Fabry
Well, my constituents are happy that the Republican Party has finally gotten off its duff, seeing that we do control the House and the Senate and the presidency, and taken up the issue of illegal immigration.
Alan Norquist
We`ve passed an energy bill in the House, to help us be less reliant upon foreign oil so we can get gas prices down. But nothing happens in the Senate.
Andreas Scheuerle
We`ve been working on this day in and day out. We`re optimistic that we can still pull it off, but the action of the Senate doesn`t help.
Eric Matthews
We respect the role of the Senate. We respect the authority of the Senate to look at the qualifications of Judge Roberts, and at the end of the day I`m optimistic that if given a fair hearing and a fair opportunity, that he will be confirmed.
Aidan Troy

Aidan Troy
We feel like the elected officials in the House and the Senate should be the ones looking at this legislation and making a decision. Just like we would not put to a vote for the public anything such as health codes, speed limits or things of that nature.
Heather Williams
We are worried about the size of the deficit, which is why the president is pleased that the House and Senate have followed his lead in cutting the deficit in half over the next five years.
Ken Mehlman
unveiling a plan and enacting one are two different things and that`s why I think action by the Senate is necessary to break the logjam. The House would not be considering the issue if the Senate hadn`t taken the lead and announced a comprehensive prison ...

Tonight, you are hearing from the Democratic women of the Senate... We stand together on so many issues: economic prosperity, quality education for all, protecting a woman`s right to choose.
Barbara Boxer
