and just days ago, i was on the phone with one who just had his 98th birthday, bob dole.ause] but no one worked harder than tony coelho to get this done. house majority leader steny hoyer. others weren't able to join us today but were instrumental in bringing this to life - dear friends, as i said, like tom harkin and bob dole. bob wanted to pass on his regards, as did tom. tom is up in wisconsin working on - he said on ada, doing something up there. now, he didn't explain exactly what. there are still more with us that are here in spirit, like ted kennedy, congressman major owens, and countless other advocates. i was enormously proud to be a co-sponsor to the ada as pat leahy was, as well, if i'm not mistaken, as a member of the united states senate. and i'm proud to be here today, as president, alongside so many fearless champions, who represent the ongoing legacy of this law, from the foundations to its future. thirty-one years ago, after its passage, many americans have never lived in a world without the ada. generations have grown up not knowing a time before it exis

nothing about the policy in bob dole's republican health care bill, just demonize dole. it would eventually die. from that frustration came the message, demonize dole. i know there were no more than a couple of democratic senators in that room who might be willing to do that. the rest of them fully respected bob dole, and many were proud to call him a friend. the wounded combat veterans in the room shared that special bond with bob dole, who was severely wounded in world war ii in combat in italy. one of the veterans in the democratic senators' lunch was senator bob kerrey of nebraska, who lost a leg in vietnam. he said nothing but as soon as the meeting was over, he walked on to the senate floor and asked chairman moynahan for time to speak. when you hear what senator kerrey had to say that day, consider how far we've come, and how impossible it would be to apply these words to the current republican leader of the senate. >> i have read senator dole's bill. i see principles in this bill that are similar to principles that i haveim as well. i w believe that the distingui

he was a conservative republican senator in the bob dole mold, who took governing reasonably serious. he respected senate norms. as chairman of the senate ethics committee in the 1990s. he recommended the expulsion of a republican committee chairman for sexual harassment, and he forced that republican chairman to resign from the senate. then in 2005, mitch mcconnell became the republican leader of the senate, and everything changed for mitch mcconnell. the last fully honorable thing mitch mcconnell did in the senate was in 2006 when he proudly voted to reauthorize the voting rights act. then with the obama presidency came mitch mcconnell's vow to block barack obama's re-election by trying to block every single thing on president obama's agenda in the united states senate. instead of using his powers as senate majority leader to tame donald trump, mitch mcconnell became trump's errand boy. long before tonight, mitch mcconnell had become the most dangerously malevolent senate leader in history. he fought to preserve the trump presidency in two senate impeachment trials when he knew dona

have about biden, as someone who came up in a very different era, who dealt with republicans like bob dole and howard baker and robert stafford early in his career. does he recognize the reality of the moment that he is living? and the same thing, by the way, on the vaccine. where he basically argued that, you know, the key to increasing vaccination rates was simply exortation. more effort to reach out to those who are skeptical and there are a lot of people skeptical that, by itself, is going to make much of a dent given the ideological underpinnings of the problems he is having expanding vaccination rates and whether he needs to look at more kind of forceful measures like supporting mandates. so, you know, it was the best of biden but it was, also, the biggest question about biden i thought crystallized over 80 minutes. >> yeah. but let me push back, then, i guess, channeling him. even though the -- the test vote on infrastructure failed. biden said it was irrelevant, given there is so many positive noises coming from both sides about a bipartisan deal. biden's using that as an example t

just that phrase that bob dole is a patriot before he is a republican. what happened to that?ed states senate? >> well, some of it has to do with american people themselves. they've become more polarized then in the 1990s. it has to do with the early conversation you had with facebook, you don't have into -- attention on facebook unless you unsolved people. president trump blew away the norms, we set norms of behavior and there's no law, no rules, nobody is going to enforce them if you blow up the norm. he reveled in insulting people. he reveled in lies. reveled in doing things that were different. a lot of his supporters said at least he speaking his mind. that is not normative behavior. we shouldn't where ward people who are violating what we consider to be normal behavior. i have to say i give former president trump a lot of credit for having destroyed those norms, and made it a lot more likely that people say well, he's lying, why can't i. he's insulting people, why can't i? it makes it very difficult for the congress to resolve conflicts over immigration, trade, health ca
