I want to be a part of the U.S. Senate that confronts the problems we face, and not the politics of our problems. I want to be part of a Senate that talks less and does more. I want us to argue less and accomplish more. To Our Members We have very clear choices to make. To meet the challenge of a and Friends changing global economy, we must provide our children with the best educational programs. Happy, Healthy New Year We can choose to protect our environment rather than waste our natural resources through neglect and direct assaults on clean JEWISH CLUB air and water. We must not allow the Department of Energy to break the law and put the nation's nuclear dumpsite in our state. OF We must appoint only the very best-qualified individuals to the WASHINGTON judiciary. I do not want right-wing ideologues imposing a narrow litmus test on the Supreme Court for years to come. Judicial nominees are too important to be subject to political deals and trades. We must ensure that the line between church and state is not broken.
