collins to introduce h.r. 244, the m.a.c. transparency act, and we have a lot of folks on board on this, it's a bipartisan bill, at a time when, as mr. collins said, there's not a lot of bipartisanship in this body at the moment. and basically what this bill would do is it would ensure that federal health plan reimbursements to pharmacies keep pace with generic drug prices, which can skyrocket overnight, as we know. i'm not going to go into great detail at the moment we've got time to talk about this a little bit more, there are other things we can talk about tonight. i just want to say a few things at the outset. just thank you again, mr. collins, and mr. carter, for setting this particular time aside so we can really educate our colleagues as much as anything about the problems facing independent community pharmacists. thank you so much and yield back. mr. collins: my colleague, i do appreciate that. that's exactly the issue here. is education. and people can look in on this, they can hear what we're talking about, they can see this education problem and this is found in every district. it's almost like veterans. there's no

bill. senator franks, stabenow, blumenthal and schumer on the democratic side. senators murkowski, collins, vitter and capito on the republican side. and we hope that this coalition of groups on the outside, this alliance with a reform effort in the house that we believe has legislative legs and a good one-for-one list of cosponsors here in the senate will allow us to move this bill forward. and we have to. we have to. and so i'll -- you know, end where senator cassidy began his remarks, which is why the nation's attention has turned to this question of how we reform our mental health system. we lived through a tragic and gut-wrenching episode of mass destruction in newtown, connecticut. senator cassidy has had his own experience with mass tragedy. and the reality is that the reasons why we see these episodes of mass shootings are complicated. but if you read the report on adam lanza's intersection with connecticut's mental health system, you see that it failed him. it failed him and it failed his family. i don't know that correcting the mental health system alone would have changed what h

collins, earlier for this -- the bill that senator murray mentioned. we're trying to create environments, where we can get inventions and discoveries through the process more rampantly. one of the problems we have is the national academies groups have identified the investigators spent 42% of their time on administrative tasks. now, if we're talking about billions more for investigators, shouldn't we be spending an equal amount of time trying to get that 42% down so we create more money there? there's a new report headed by the chancellor of university of texas which includes a research board that would coordinate an approach toward the spending of the 42 billion we put out, not all of that through nih, to colleges and universities to try to eliminate replication. will you review that report and over the next year set up a way to consider making the changes that it makes? and if you have impediments, either within the administration or the law that would keep you from doing that, we might be able to include them in the legislation senator murray and i

bill in recent years. in 2012, the lieberman-collins cybersecurity act of 2012 was on the floor and included a title on informationring which fell to the intelligence committee. it was an important piece of legislation, but it only received one republican vote. last congress, then-vice-chairman of intelligence, saxby chambliss, and i set out to draft a narrower bill in the hopes of attracting bipartisan spowmplet the intelligence committee approved a bill in 2014 by a strong bipartisan vote of 12-3. but it never reached the senate floor due to privacy concerns. so this is the third try. i'm very pleased that chairman burr and i now have the opportunity to bring a bill to the floor that both sides can and should support. this bill is bipartisan. it is narrowly focused, and it puts in place a number of privacy protections, many of which we will outline shortly. i believe the bipartisan vote of 14-1 in the senate intelligence committee in march underscores this fact. i'd like to commend senator burr's leadership and his willingness to negotiate a bipartisan bill with me that can and should -- and i hope does -- rec

carper: six years ago, senator feinstein, you along with senator collins, joe lieberman, jay rockefeller offered the first comprehensive bill dealing with information-sharing. we had a vote in late-2012, came up short and started all over again in the last congress. you've shown great leadership from the start. i want to thank you. i have been joined on the floor by senator burr. i want to thank you for cooperating with us and with others to make sure we have not just a good bill but a really good bill that addresses one of the greatest challenges we face today in this country of ours. the -- i've heard senator feinstein say it time and again. if companies don't want to share information with the federal government rkt the, they don't . in some cases they can form their own groups. they don't have to share information on -- attacks with the federal government. they can share it with other pierpeers if they wish to. imbut if they do, we ask that it be shared with the homeland security because the department of homeland security is set up in large part to provide a privacy scrub. we'll have next month the ability when these t

was ultimately folded into a comprehensive cybersecurity bill that i had the honor of cosponsoring with senators joe lieberman and susan collins and jay rockefeller and senator feinstein. we were not able to pass that bill, but i think it's waived p- it's a paved the way for a number of others amendments that are going to be toferredz that bill. last congress, mr. president, i worked with ranking member on the homeland security, dr. tom coburn, and our house counterparts -- not one, not two, not three, but four cybersecurity bills enacted into law, signed by the president. i believe these bills laid a very strong foundation for some significant improvements on how the department of homeland security carries out its mission and really for this bill before us, too. what the legislation that dr. coburn and i worked on last congress did in essence was to better-equip the department of homeland security to operate at the center of the kind of robust information-sharing program that the burr-feinstein bill would set up. how did it do that? one, to make sure that the department of homeland security would have the ability to attract a

collins: thank you, mr. president. mr. president, i rise today to urge my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to support the military construction and veterans affairs appropriations bill. mr. president, yesterday congress sent to the president a continuing resolution, a bill, to prevent a government shutdown. this was necessary to ensure that vital resources and services that the american people depend on do not lapse and in order to avoid harm to jobs and our economy. but, as my colleagues fully realize, sumly putting government on autopilot through a continuing resolution is not the responsible way to fund government. it locks in last year's priorities, delays the start of vital, new programs, and allows unneeded programs to continue to be funded. we must pass the 12 annual appropriations bills. in july of this year, the senate appropriations committee, on which i'm privileged to serve, reported the last of the 12 bills. this was the first time that all 12 of the appropriations bills have been approved by the committee in plenty of time for the senate to act since 2009. mr. president, it is past time for the senate to take up and pass these funding bills so that we

collins: thank you, madam president. madam president, i rise today to introduce the clean cook stoves and fuels support act. this bill addresses a serious global public health and environmental issue, and i'm very pleased to be joined in this effort by my friend and colleague, senator durbin. nearly half of the world's people cook over open fires or inefficient, polluting and unsafe cook stoves using agricultural waste, coal, dung, wood or other solid fuels. smoke from these traditional cook stoves and open fires is associated with chronic and acute diseases that affect women and children disproportionately. the black carbon from these traditional cook stoves is also a significant driver of air pollution and climate change. alarmingly the world health organization found that in 2012, this type of air pollution claimed 4.3 million lives. millions more are sickened from the toxic fumes and thousands suffered burns annually from open fires or unsafe cook stoves. the global burden of disease study of 2010 doubled the mortality estimates for exposure to smoke from cook stoves referred to household air pollution from two m
