Sen. Lee Objects to the Unanimous Consent of Chai Feldblum's Confirmation to the EEOC
Dec 19, 2018
My objection to this nominee relates to my belief and religious freedom. You see, religious freedom is very important to me. I am the descendant of people who were ordered exterminated by the Governor of Missouri on October 27, 1837. Religious intolerance cannot be tolerated in this country, and I see a growing wave of religious intolerance. I see a growing wave of sentiment of people suggesting that on the basis of people's religious beliefs, they can be subject to adverse government decision-making.

Utah Farmers Deserve Better Than This Farm Bill
Dec 14, 2018
Utah farmers and ranchers need a good farm bill. They need reforms to existing crop insurance and subsidy programs that unfairly favor large corporate farms over small family farms. They need reforms to the federal government’s grazing permit process. And they need clarity from the Environmental Protection Agency on which wetlands and waters are or are not subject to costly Clean Water Act regulations.

Remarks on Retiring Sen. Orrin Hatch
Dec 12, 2018
It is with mixed emotions that I rise today to honor my friend and senior Senator, the gentleman from Utah, Orrin Hatch.
This year marks the end of an astounding 42-year tenure serving the people of Utah in the Senate. In that time, Senator Hatch has made an indelible mark on our state and our nation.
People who follow Washington politics closely know what he has meant to this institution, his party, and the republic. But for those of us from Utah, Orrin Hatch is more than a name in the newspaper. He is the towering political figure not only of his generation, but also of the generations that have come along in his wake.
