3/3: In essence, my vote tonight was a vote to proceed to find common ground. It is only by finding common ground that we can fulfill our duty to govern effectively. -Doug

2/3: Working w/ @SenBobCorker & @JeffFlake, and leadership of both parties, a commitment was forged that we would proceed with debate but that no further votes would be taken until an agreement is reached that would pass both houses of Congress and be signed by the President.

1/3: On Wednesday, the Senate passed with unanimous bipartisan support a bill that would have funded the federal government. Unfortunately, the House sent us a bill that clearly could not earn the necessary votes to pass in the Senate. pic.twitter.com/YmxX1DqNuq

Important: The Civil Rights Cold Case Records Collection Act – introduced by @SenDougJones – passed the Senate unanimously this week. The House should pass this bipartisan bill to add transparency to civil rights cold cases before it adjourns for the year. bit.ly/2PPiUrg

I agree – more prisons aren’t the answer. In the Senate, we just passed the #FirstStepAct to begin reforming our criminal justice system, but we need leaders to step up at the state and local levels, too. -Doug twitter.com/dothaneagle/st…

With the #FirstStepAct, we have an opportunity to make history by working together to solve one of the most important, most challenging issues of our time. I urge the Senate to take the first step by passing this vital legislation. – Doug pic.twitter.com/A6SbjoeNia

As a recreational fisherman myself, I knew I wanted to be a part of this effort to bring our fisheries management practices into the 21st century. This is a smart policy change that will protect our fish stocks & support a vital part of our state’s economy. - Doug twitter.com/sportfishpolic…

Many high school students are making big financial decisions that will follow them the rest of their adult lives. Along w/ @SenatorHassan & @SenGillibrand, I’ve introduced legislation to help prepare young adults for these financial choices well before they’ll need to make them. pic.twitter.com/s95jWr2Sv9

Today in 1646, the U.S.’s first militias formed in Massachusetts, causing December 13 to be celebrated as the birthday of the @USNationalGuard. Can you believe we’re 382 already? Time sure flies when you’re upholding America’s proudest traditions! #Guard382 #HappyBirthday pic.twitter.com/zXHadLA09b
