>> senator bozeman? >> i've got sympathy for what the senator is trying to do the problem is to pay for. the economic adjustment assistance program. is a very popular program. it's kept many mills across the country in business. and certainly this is a jobs situation also. currently 44 companies in 14 states participate in the program. many states are represented on this committee. for that reason i would encourage a no vote and work to at some point see if we can find a different pay for. >> mr. chairman, i appreciate the senator's sentiment. we can work together. but i think the reason we have such strong support for this on this committee is $3 billion was set aside for cotton in the last budget which is significantly more than some of these other programs. that's why given what we're facing in the midwest right now. with the prices and the lowest prices since 2006 and the issues that senator grassley has so nicely identified, that we're dealing with on the biofuels side, we think this is very importa

at a round table discussion about agriculture in bozeman, a local farmer and fooze processor said tax reform contributed to his decision to double his staff from six to 12 employees. senior officials at the boeing facility in helena indicate they will add over 20 new employees this year. montana small businesses credit tax reform for their decisions to expan at a round table with women, small business owners in bozeman, one entrepreneur said the new tax policies were a big part of her decision to launch two new business this is year. montana businesses are making investments, thanks to ax reform. lowenborough in great fall, an industrial manufacturing firm that employees more than 600, said the taxeform immediately added 15% to their bottom line. tax reform is leading home to increase worker benefits, enhance training programs, and invest in construction equipment that will createore jobs. billings flying service credits the full expensing provision for its decision to purchase new equipment. the company's also investing in new research and development for expanding fire fighting equi

senator bozeman. >> thank you, mr. chairman. right off the bat i want to thank you and the ranking member for their hard work over the last several months. as you mentioned, you know, you all are great and work hard but your staffs are excellent. so we really do appreciate that. and, again, for crafting a truly bipartisan piece of legislation, especially during a time when budgets are tight and tough choices must be made. as we are all aware, the farm economy is a much different place than the last time we were around this table debating a farm bill. net farm income is approximately half of what it was then, farm bankruptcies are up 39% over the past two years, financing is becoming more expensive, input costs are rising and the trade outlet look is volatile and uncertain. farmers across the country ard regardless of which state at the reside in and which crops at the grow are hurting. now is not the time to be cutting the farm safety net program. as members of this committee we must provide a timely farm bill to provide certain

wilkie, as you know senator sullivan, senator rounds, senator bozeman, senator chester and other members of this committee represent states where our veterans are long distance away from our va facilities. sometimes a full day's drive. as you may know in the debate on the mission bill and in the markups, choice program that works to make these healthcare services available to the veteran is key to the argument that debate. we work as hard as you can and tell us what you plan to do to see to it that choice is a reality in the time an appointment is good and the problem we've had with veterans not being able to reach the services they deserve and they are. >> yes or. >> and this goes to something that we talked about, and i will say that those of us from the east, even in the 21st century, do not understand the scale of the american west. in montana a normal journey will sometimes take 600 miles round-trip to get to the va facility. choice means giving those veterans and their family care diverse the opportunity to engage with va anytime of the day and also with the development of the comm

1986, i proposed to my sweet wife cindy after we hiked to the top of highlight peak just south of bozeman, a peak a little over 10,000 feet. seven and a half miles from the trailhead to the top and back. a long 15-mile day. i'm grateful she said yes. in fact, during the summer, i spend a lot of time backpacking in the bear tooth with our family. we bring along our mini australian shepherds and bear spray. it's good practices. in montana, outdoor recreation isn't just our way of life. it's our economy. in fact, outdoor recreation directly supports some 1,000 montana jobs. it generates $2.2 billion in wages and salaries. and estimated over $7 billion in consumer spending. we see it every summer, every winter, now every shoulder season. people from around the nation and around the world come to visit america's great outdoors. but in montana, it's all right here in our very own back yard. it's hiking in glacier. fly fishing the gallotson, jefferson, madison, stillwater, the yellowstone, the missouri, the bighorn, or skiing in places like big mountain or red lodge or bridge or big sky. or floa

after the great fukushima quake in march of 2011 i was running the software business in japan from bozeman, montana from my vice president called me from downtown tokyo after they experienced a 9.7 quake. a pretty chilling conversation. what happened in japan? they used to have 53 nuclear plants. they decommissioned them because of the problem they had with some contamination from a 9.0 quake. they have brought up about seven of those 53, but what are they doing? they are pivoting over to coal, to coal, as well as renewables, but that's a very important part of their long-term energy plan for grid resiliency and grid reliability, and what do they want? they want more u.s. coal because president xi has militarized the south china sea. they have australia and indonesian sources of coal, montana and wyoming coal has lower sulfur so it's very environmentally friendly, lower cost, can help us in our economy in the united states and montana. helped japan, a critical ally. i just hope we can have a common sense discussion. japanese are investing in clean coal technology and we can do that in amer

finally, that at 2:00 p.m., the senate vote in relation to the bozeman and reed amendments in the order listed with no second-degree amendments in order to the amendments prior to the votes. the presiding officer: is there objection? mr. paul: mr. president? the presiding officer: the senator from kentucky. mr. paul: reserving the right to object, two bedrocks of american jurisprudence is the presumption of innocence and the right to a trial by jury. i have one amendment that i would ask unanimous consent be included in this bill. this amendment would ensure that no american is ever held indefinitely in prison without a trial by jury. i can't imagine why we can't have this. one republican senator has been blocking this for six years, so i object to this unanimous consent and ask, mr. president, unanimous consent -- the presiding officer: your objection is heard. mr. paul: and i ask you, mr. president, i ask unanimous consent that we allow my amendment to be heard and voted upon in the upcoming bill. the presiding officer: the senator from oklahoma has the floor. mr. inhofe: reese reserv
