thank you, madam chairman. >> thank you, senator barrasso. senator wyden. >> thank you, senator for your leadership. we, of course, have the fire borrowing language on the books. i think that is going to be helpful for the long-term. miss christensen, we look forward to getting the plan at the end of june on how you're going to deal with the backlog on how the fuel reductions, that's what we talked about here in this committee and i very much appreciated the fact that you've been in discussions with us how you're going to be attacking that and i look forward to that as well. i think the country very much wants to know what the game plan is for reducing those hazardous fuel. for the country, and sometimes it feels like all of us individual senators are running weather bureaus because our citizens are so concerned about this. for the country, may is the ominous month for the fire season, and that really traditionally gives you a sense of where things are and like many of my colleagues, it looks like we're going to have some real challenges in o

it took my staff and senator barrasso's staff digging around to find out the total cost of the repair was $31 million. this means, according to corps, the remaining cost share was about $5 million. because there is not a detailed accounting, other questions have been raised about whether the corps built it correctly. if the corps had accounted for this program correctly, the cost share would have been about $1 million. that difference may sound like a lot of to us here in the united states senate but $4.5 million to a local rural irrigation district is a lot of money. sadly, as i said before this has not been provided to many cost-share partners is the law and we need to get to the bottom of why and where it is happening. senator alexander and i believe that this report as being requested sets the stage for more transparency and better budgeting at the corps, which is also a theme in the america's water infrastructure act that we'll be addressing, i hope, next month. so let me just conclude if i could, by once more thanking chairman alexander for working, his staff, and working with m

let's bring in senator john barrasso member of the senate foreign relations committee. to have you in studio this morning. nice to see you. hard to believe we're a week out. do you think it will actually happen? >> i do. credit to president trump. he has replaced the policy of weakness with a policy of strength for the united states in his 16 months in office. around the world leaders whether kim jong-un, vladimir ancan elakness.pect streng the prident is doing the right thing and i congratulate him. >> sandra: what do you give the president credit for? how did he get us to this point? >> a lot of posturing over the last 16 months. he found a north korea that had a nuclear weapons syin place more sophisticated because what we believed it was. it has gotten them to the table with a demand. he knows what he wants. a complete denuclearization of the korean peninsula. he is very firm. he doesn't want more or less. that's what you have to do when you are working on a deal like this. >> >> sandra: part of that negotiation has shown the president being willing to walk away if

barrasso: thank you, madam president. madam president, as you well know, last december republicans voted to cut the taxes that american families pay. we simplified the tax system, we made it fairer, we cut the rates, and every single democrat in the senate voted against giving americans this tax relief that they needed -- every single one of them. democrats claim that only rich people would benefit and that businesses would never share their savings with the workers. well, the democrat leader, senator schumer, actually said that tax cuts like these, he said, benefit the wealthy and the powerful. he actually said to the exclusion of the middle class. so what happened? what have we seen all across america? well, the american people know that the democrats were wrong. the very day -- the very day the tax bill passed the congress, at&t came out and said that they were giving their workers a bonus. the company said that 200,000 hardworking employees were going to get an extra $1,000 each directly because of the tax relief law.

barrasso: thank you, mr. president. when i'm back home in wyoming, as i am every weekend, people often tell me about how they've suffered under the health care law known as obamacare. and i've been able to give them some very good news recently about things that republicans in congress and this administration have done to help people get out of the obamacare problems that they have been having and escape some of the problems that have been caused by the law. this is a headline in the "wall street journal" from june 20. exit from obamacare, which is something i've been working on ever since the law was passed. and what i've been able to tell people at home in wyoming is that we have now scrapped the law's terribly unpopular individual mandate. done that successfully this past year, so that people aren't forced to buy insurance that may not be right for them or their families and certainly much more expensive than they'd like to pay. you know, that individual mandate is part of the law that said every american, everyone h

barrasso: thank you, mr. president. i ask unanimous consent that the quorum call be vitiated. the presiding officer: without asso: thank president. mr. president, last week, i traveled all around my home state of wyoming. many senators have done the same in their home states over the last week. i will tell you, the people i talked to had a great sense of optimism, confidence, and just positiveness of how things were going with their lives. people are feeling very positive about the american economy and about their own lives, and of course about their future. we have just seen new numbers on friday showing that the american economy has created more than one mlion new jobs since we passed the tax relief and jobs act in december. since president trump was elyot more understand that 3 million more americans working. unemployment is now at 3.%. that matches the lowest rate in 50 years. even "the new york times" ran a headline saying, "we ran out of words to describe how good the jobs numbers are." think about that. "the new york times," "we ran out of words to describe how good the

senator barrasso. >> thank you, chairman murkowski. mr. chatterjee, april 26th senator risch and i introduced the act to bring the 40-year-old public utility regulation policy act in line and to protect consumers from unnecessary costs. back in '78, things were different then. we have access to transmission, abundant renewable energy, so i believe that the regulations need to be updated to reflect these modern realities and insure electric utility customers aren't footing the bill for power that they really don't need and don't want to pay for. so, you know, i'm encouraged by the commission's announcement on may 17th that you're going to be reviewing the regulations. would you please give us some additional detail on the scope and the timing of the review and any of the specific rules that you believe need to be updated. >> thank you, senator. i commend you for introducing your legislation. i have said repeatedly, i think major changes need to come from this body. but that said, the time has since passed. we immediate to take a look at our

since coming to the commission, and i know it is also of great interest to the committee as senator barrasso recently introduced a reform bill. i am grateful for my friend and colleague chairman mcintyre's recent announcement of the commission will review its current policy to ensure it point continues to promote element of renewable resources and cogeneration. i look forward to engaging with numbers of this committee as part of the support and exercise, and i take seriously your comments senator cantwell, that we have a transparent record. turning to another critical topic, i would like to discuss our efforts on bulk power system reliability. congress delegated to the commission, the responsibility to improve and enforce mandatory reliability damage to the grid. with our partners at the north american reliability corporation, we are reviewing the standards, and ensuring they evolve with the industry and form an effective baseline for addressing day-to-day grid reliability issues. they also work to overhaul ancillary services markets, for instance, we have taken actions to ensure all new gen

barrasso: thank you, mr. president. last week, president trump took what i believe is a historic first step in making america and the whole world more safe, more stable, and more secure. his efforts to end north korea's nuclear weapons program has already, i believe, produced tangible results. north korea is dismantling a test facility. it is also committed to recovering and sending home the remains of americans killed during the korean war. now the trump administration is taking the next steps. the state department is hard at work at follow-up discussions. secretary of state pompeo says he may return personally to north korea before very long. when we heard from president trump about his trip to singapore last week, he was upbeat about the talks. he understands that these follow-up talks were going to be where the specifics, where the specifics really start to be discussed. that's where, as they say, the rubber meets the road. now, i think the talks have a very real opportunity for success. success means an agreement t
