How to use headway in a sentence?

  1. Mitch McConnell:

  3. Josie Znidarsic:

  4. Larry Kudlow:

    We are making headway in a lot of areas. That includes enforcement, that includes IP theft, that includes forced technology transfers, ownership, cyberspace, commodities and all the rest of it, those are of course in the middle of the negotiations that are ongoing, but we've come further and farther than ever before.

  5. State Senator Tom Davis:

    I made some headway yesterday in making a bad bill better, but it's nowhere near the point where I can support it, and I recognize to a significant degree that I'm breaking with my Senate Republicans brethren.
