paulsen from minnesota. this bill gave state and local police another tool in terms of recovering missing children. incredibly, the tax code prevented state and local law enforcement to getting access from tax returns from adults who actually had abducted children. incredibly, those adults were claiming these children who were in their custody, illegal custody as a tax credit and tax exemption but state and local officials were, again, barred by privacy provisions from the i.r.s. code from accessing that information. on the one hand, you had one arm of government looking for children and the other arm of government who knew exactly where they were based on the tax returns where they were. ncmic is in the process of disseminate the new tool which an audit of the i.r.s. demonstrated there are roughly 2,000 tax returns each year where adult individuals are actually claiming children as a tax deduction and obviously with their residence and eye departmentity included. again, that just is another example where we

senate in minnesota history in one of the most effective members of the u.s. congress. that is not just me saying that it was reported last year she was ranked number one in the senate with the most bills enacted into law in the 114th congress. [applause] she has worked on a lot to crack down on sex trafficking and led the legislation to combat the '03 '08 epidemic and has reached out to work with democrats than republicans on the 2014 farm bill of legislative record is amazing. in a recent poll 72 percent of minnesota in disapproved of her work including the majority of republicans. [applause] the majority of republicans for of most recently by other for senators to call for the independent commission on the trump campaign ties to russia. [cheers and applause] anything she will continue her work investigating because there is much more to find out. speaking of that guy a somehow of sexist voss from every '70s centcom got into the oval office. a lot of us don't know for sure how that happened but one thing that is clear from the women's march it will take the women of t

they all lived in a mobile home in mankato, minnesota. he was the middle child and he got forgotten a lot. in fact, one time they actually forgot him the gas station. they did not realize it until they were miles away. i have never done that to him. but, we all know it is not easy be in the middle child. this time, those of us in the middle going into the 2018 and the next year's in the middle of this country, we will not be forgotten. we have a voice and people should listen. because, both iowa and minnesota have a strong tradition of grass roots of politics, yes a party caucuses, yes but we also have independent voters. not all of the states and country have that. if you don't believe me about minnesota three words for you, governor jess even to our. so what do we do now as we move forward. first we have to acknowledge the elephant or the donkey in the middle of the room. that is what happen this fall. it was a tough, tough night. i was going around our minnesota party with my junior senator, al franken. we were going around in the nigh

that helps iowa and minnesota. instead, we should measure our success by how mainstreet drives in the long-term. and i have seen what success looks like.i visited the energy company in mason city where they are creating jobs in the midwest instead of feeding oil sheiks in the mideast. or when i saw popcorn heaven in waterloo where innovation has led to popcorn flavors like dill pickle and southwest hot wings. the small business owners that we see across town to my state show us what is possible. that is really the center of this competitive agenda.so i think of it with four corners. it is kind of like the state of iowa. square but cool, right? first, the nation can only compete in one corner. if workers are paid fairly and prepared for the 21st century economy. the basic bargain this used to be that if you work hard and play by the rules, you could get ahead. you can make sure that your kids and grandkids were better off. now, far too many times the cost of that basic programs too high. people are working two or th

they all live in minnesota. he was the middle child and he forgotten -- in fact, one time, this is true. they forgotten him at a gas station. they did not realize it. i never have done that to him. we all know it is not easy being the middle child. those of us in the middle in the middle of this country will not be forgotten. we have a voice and people should listen. because both iowa and minnesota have a strong tradition of grass root politics and party caucuses and yes. we have a lot of independent voters and not all the state in the country has that. if you don't believe me about minnesota, i have three words for you. governor, jesse ventura, all right? >> what do we do now as we move forward? >> first, we have to acknowledge the elephant or i will call it the donkey in the middle of the room and that's what happens this fall and it was a tough night. i just like doing that. so we are going around and night goes on and it is getting worse and worse and finally i got home. and i get a text from my daughter and

i was at minnesota up parties -- with my junior senator, al franken. as the night goes on gets worse and finally i go home. i get a text from my daughter and i realized she was at hillary's party in new york. i felt guilt because i have had forgotten she was there so focused.s mom, what should be do now? i wrote this long text. go now, the subway is still running. you need to leave. you have class tomorrow she probably will not speak to my i mean our country. so, i told her the next morning. the country has been through tough times before. wars and discrimination a financial crisis with deep-seated discord but through it all we have always had a peaceful transition of power and that is what we need to do now. i still believe that today. what does moving forward look like when you have an administration that is exhibiting -- zigzagging this way and that and you have republicans in congress to one who want to hold us back with big money? that is what the democratic party needs to focus on. while there are plenty of reasons we lost in 2016 at least one we
