Today I spoke on the Senate floor about the retirement of U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-TX) after representing Texas in the U.S Senate together for nearly 10 years:

Groups like FAIR, NumbersUSA and the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) have long worked to deepen and widen a wedge between conservative Hispanic citizens and the Republican Party.

French actor Gérard Depardieu elicited a barrage of criticism for leaving France and settling in Belgium on the grounds that he has had it with “redistribution” and “paying, in 2012, an 85 percent tax-rate on my income tax.”

For those who have not seen the movie (which ends differently than the Broadway play), here is a brief recap: A young man and a young woman are working in a small, struggling flower shop in New York City when they are confronted with the possible closure of the shop. The young man (who happens to have a crush on the young woman) finds a strange plant and shows it to the young lady who, in turn, suggests to the owner that he display
I issued the following statement on the passing of U.S. Sen. Daniel Inouye (D-HI), the longest-serving sitting member of the U.S. Senate:
A member of this nation’s Greatest Generation, Sen. Inouye was a decorated veteran who received the Medal of Honor for his courageous service and bravery fighting tyranny and evil on battlefields across the globe. His decades of public service on behalf of the people of Hawaii were marked with passion, honor, and selflessness. He will truly be missed. Read more about Cornyn Statement on the Passing of Sen.
