.@60Minutes Correspondent Scott Pelley: "We are all experiencing trouble getting people to appear on our broadcast because of the fear that has spread across the country."

.@SenAmyKlobuchar: "Today, we mark 40 years since C-SPAN began its coverage of the United States Senate, bringing the work of this body directly into people's living rooms. It doesn't seem very radical right now … but back then it was revolutionary."

We've been sharing several historic videos from the Senate floor today on the 40th anniversary of the Senate on C-SPAN2.

Here's some less-historical moments which are still worth remembering, in no particular order. (cont...)

RUBIO TODAY:
saw a "a speech, they were playing it after he passed away on C-SPAN, Jesse Jackson at 1988 Democratic convention calling for U.S. to get out of NATO."

JACKSON 7-19-1988:
"We're spending $150 billion a year defending Europe and Japan 43 years after the war is over."

Secretary of State Marco Rubio: "I happened to see a speech, they were playing it after he passed away on C-SPAN, Jesse Jackson at the 1988 Democratic convention calling for the United States to get out of NATO.

Sen. @ChrisCoons: "I was there."

C-SPAN is a national treasure.

.@LeaderJohnThune: "On this day 40 yeas ago, C-SPAN broadcast the United States Senate for the very first time...it's ensured that what happens here is lost neither to the day's news cycle nor to history."

[Jeremy Art @cspanJeremy]

Sen. @ChuckGrassley: "40 years ago today, I voted no on the Senate being televised...on reflection, I'm glad that the Senate is televised to make government more real to the American people. So, I guess I'd have to confess that I cast the wrong vote 40 years ago."

[CSPAN @cspan]

Sen. @ChuckGrassley: "Happy 40th Birthday to C-SPAN broadcasting democracy in the Senate to the American people."

[CSPAN @cspan]

#OnThisDay 1986: "We are going public."
