Supports Blunt Amendment

Feb 29 2012

Senator Boozman spoke on the Senate floor in support of the Respect for Rights of Conscience Act, legislation introduced as amendment by Sen Roy Blunt (R-Mo.) to the Highway Bill. The Senate will vote on the amendment on Thursday.
U.S. Senator John Boozman (R-AR) complimented Senate leaders for taking steps to try to enact all the appropriations bills and committing his support to accomplishing this, in a speech on the Senate floor.

“The American people are tired of the finger pointing that has stalled much of the work they sent us here to do, but I’m hopeful we are seeing a light at the end of the tunnel. That starts with trying to enact all appropriations bills through a regular process this year,” Boozman said in his speech.

Boozman joined the bipartisan effort on the Senate floor highlighting the need for regular order in the chamber and trying to enact the appropriations bills as a good example.

Senator Boozman spoke in support of S. J. Res. 6 which would put a stop to the FCC's Net Neutrality rules from going forward. He spoke on the Senate Floor talking about how the rules will stifle innovation, investment and ultimately job growth.

Senator Boozman answers questions about the Joint Congressional Committee or what is more commonly referred to as the Supercommittee, the No Child Left Behind Reauthorization and Social Security in this edition of "From the Mailbag."
