Protecting Life in Foreign Assistance
Feb 3, 2021
Madam President,
The whole point of American foreign aid is to assist countries in times of need, and in support of a common interest between them and us.

Sen. Lee Speaks on Counting Electoral Votes
Jan 6, 2021
Mr. President, at the time I prepared my remarks for today—it seems like a lifetime ago; a lot has changed in last few hours. So I’m going to deliver the same remarks, but it has a little bit of a different feel than it would have just a few hours ago.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the family members of those who have been injured or killed today. My heartfelt gratitude goes out to the Capitol Hill Police who valiantly defended our building and our lives.
