Floor Speeches
Merkley spoke on the floor 89 times on 63 session days in the 119th Congress.
- Senate, September 30, 2026, 3,951 wordsTaxpayer Assistance and Service Act
We have a challenge--a problem--and that is the President is exercising a line-item veto, and line-item vetoes are unconstitutional because the Constitution assigns the power of the purse to Congress, not to the President of the United States.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record ↗ - Senate, September 29, 2026, 725 wordsWildfire Emissions Prevention Act of 2026
They say an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and that is certainly true when it comes to wildfires and smoke. And as climate chaos makes the fire season longer and hotter and more dangerous, wildfires are ravaging States across our country, certainly including my home State of Oregon.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record ↗ - Senate, September 28, 2026, 2,450 wordsUnanimous Consent Request
I come to the floor to propose that Democrats and Republicans join together to stop a monumentally horrific idea, an idea called Trump's triumphal arch. It distorts our history while destroying historic views. It disregards the Constitution's separation of powers. It disrupts air safety at DC's Ronald Reagan Airport, and it disrespects the sacrifices of our veterans and their families.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record ↗ - Senate, September 24, 2026, 927 wordsDirecting the President, Pursuant to Section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution, to Remove United States Armed Forces from Hostilities with Iran
The Chinese Government will do anything, at any cost, anywhere in the world to silence its critics.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record ↗ - Senate, July 22, 2026, 1,202 wordsUnanimous Consent Request (Executive Calendar)
Americans are worried that the money in their pockets will not cover the increasing costs of gas and groceries and housing or healthcare. Meanwhile, the President of the United States, Donald Trump, is worried that the money in Americans' pockets doesn't currently have his face or his signature on it.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record ↗ - Senate, July 22, 2026, 1,940 wordsIran
Thank you. The Senator appreciates your pronunciation of my home State, which people across America have a hard time often figuring out.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record ↗ - Senate, June 24, 2026, 1,958 wordsIran (Executive Calendar)
Donald Trump's Operation Epic Fury has become ``Operation Epic Failure.'' He started a war of choice. It turned out, Iran had a lot more leverage than he ever anticipated.
