May we stop seeing people as black, white, brown or wearing blue and see them instead as husbands, wives, sons, daughters and children of God.

Today, let’s pay tribute to the Founders who declared our independence and to the brave men and women who have fought to maintain it.

Deeply saddened to learn of the horrific attack in Orlando. Our hearts go out to those who lost loved ones.

"Today is the day we put aside to remember fallen heroes and to pray that no heroes will ever have to die for us again." - Ronald Reagan ‪#‎MemorialDay‬

It is disqualifying for a modern-day presidential nominee to refuse to release tax returns to the voters, especially one who has not been subject to public scrutiny in either military or public service. Tax returns provide the public with its sole confirmation of the veracity of a candidate's representations regarding charities, priorities, wealth, tax conformance, and conflicts of interest. Further, while not a likely circumstance, the potential for hidden inappropriate ass...ociations with foreign entities, criminal organizations, or other unsavory groups is simply too great a risk to ignore for someone who is seeking to become commander-in-chief.

Mr. Trump says he is being audited. So? There is nothing that prevents releasing tax returns that are being audited. Further, he could release returns for the years immediately prior to the years under audit. There is only one logical explanation for Mr. Trump's refusal to release his returns: there is a bombshell in them. Given Mr. Trump's equanimity with other flaws in his history, we can only assume it's a bombshell of unusual size.

(Anticipating inquiries regarding my own tax release history, I released my 2010 tax returns in January of 2012 and I released my 2011 tax returns as soon as they were completed, in September of 2012.)

Heartbreaking to hear that Thomas Rolfes was killed this weekend while in New Orleans looking for a wedding venue with his sweetheart, a fellow Tulane graduate. A senseless and tragic loss. Thomas was a highly valued member of our 2012 campaign team. His warm smile and engaging personality lifted our spirits. His commitment and dedication to our effort made him an invaluable part of the campaign. Ann and I send our love and prayers to his family and fiancée.

Ann and I have heavy hearts tonight as we have learned that our friend, Senator Bob Bennett, has passed away. For many years, Bob has been a friend and a counselor. When I ran for public office, he spent hours with me, offering advice and sharing his experience. When I moved to Utah to take responsibility for the 2002 Olympic Winter Games, he helped me navigate the government agencies and U.S. Senate committees to secure essential resources that would make the Games successfu...l. His keen mind made him a leading figure in the Senate on issues as disparate and far-reaching as emerging technologies and federal budgets. He was respected by men and women on both sides of the aisle, not only for his expertise but also for his common touch, his common sense, and his commitment to uncommon virtues. What I will remember most about Senator Bennett is his unwavering commitment to principle; his is an example of integrity and character that will long live in the memories of all of us who knew him. God be with you, Bob, till we meet again at Jesus' feet.

With Barbara Anderson's passing, the Bay State has lost a tireless champion for tax fairness, personal freedom and government restraint. She waged her fight to limit the tax rate through several decades and through several administrations. During my term as governor, she provided valuable counsel and helped provide the political support that was needed to curb spending and taxation.

A modest woman with bold ideas and unrelenting determination, Barbara was not only an endurin...g fixture of the Massachusetts political scene, but also one who succeeded time and again.

We really have Barbara's tireless and successful efforts to thank for changing Massachusetts from one of the highest tax states in the country to a competitive state that is vibrant and pro-growth. She was a woman who put her ideas into action, and never stopped fighting for the principles of individual freedom she held so deeply.

With the passing of Nancy Reagan, we say a final goodbye to the days of Ronald Reagan. With charm, grace, and a passion for America, this couple reminded us of the greatness and the endurance of the American experiment. Some underestimate the influence of a First Lady but from Martha and Abigail through Nancy and beyond, these women have shaped policy, strengthened resolve, and drawn on our better angels. God and Ronnie have finally welcomed a choice soul home.

Watch my speech on the state of the 2016 presidential race LIVE on Facebook at 11:30 AM, ET.

The state of the 2016 presidential race
Today, I spoke with Neil Cavuto about the state of the 2016 presidential race.
“I'd like to see a number of things from the candidates, not just their positions on issues, in some detail. And some candidates are more thorough in laying out what they're going to do than others. But I'd also like to see their back taxes. I'd like to see where they filed their taxes in the last several years. I'm not talking about their taxes this year. I'm talking about the taxes that have already been filed with the IRS. And Donald Trump and Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz have not shown us their back taxes. You know, ...

Today, Jeb Bush followed his family's pattern of putting country above himself. His campaign has been about answers to real problems and about policies to strengthen our country. It has been a campaign conducted in the finest tradition of dignity and integrity and Jeb Bush gave it his all: he can have no regrets. I am proud to call him a friend.

One of the Greats has left us. Stein Eriksen was a champion for Utah and for the 2002 Olympic Winter Games just as he himself was a champion Olympic athlete. His prowess was not only on the slopes but also as a visionary entrepreneur and leader in the development of Utah's burgeoning industry. He lived and led with honor and integrity, leaving a legacy of uncommon character. Ann and I will miss following in the tracks he left behind on the slopes of Deer Valley; his enthusiasm, exuberance and grace will long warm our hearts.
