U.S. House of Representatives

I will tell you how I use the word ‘failure,’ Peters said. 'I use the word ‘failure’ to their leaders. You, sir, are the failure! Not the men and women that are on that front line.'

I think my main focus is really genuinely just the midterms right now, and we have to make sure that we win this majority,

I think there’s two things, one is that you know polls are polls, and a horse race is a horse race. I am, of course, I think very deeply humbled and grateful to you folks who participate and convey that confidence,

I know that may not be popular within every corner, but I think that’s their mandate and their charge.

I think that’s what all of us up here want them to be focused on.

The DCCC is focused on winning elections.

Our country faces threats and DoD has modernization needs, but I will not support making massive cuts to critically important domestic programs and slashing taxes to meet those needs.

As always, Republicans support our troops, our farmers and election integrity and we will demonstrate that again this week.

Trump claims his war on Iran is about stopping an authoritarian country from enriching nuclear fuel. Now he’s letting his best friends in Saudi Arabia — one of the most brutal dictatorships in the world — do exactly that. This is absurd…

I predict someone will introduce a resolution of disapproval and I invite members of this committee who have worked with us to prevent nuclear weapons in the Middle East, from non-democratic countries, to join in that effort.

Is there any reason we should be bombing Iran because they won’t agree to limit their nuclear program while telling Saudi Arabia we give them the green light and they don’t even have to agree to these additional inspections?

There are those who think that the Saudi possession of nuclear technology is totally benign, but I’ve been involved in this for a long time, and I remember when the most powerful monarch in the Middle East was a good friend of America. And…

We need to be developing not just New York and Silicon Valley and Austin – we need to be developing industry in the midwest, in the south-west, in the south, and I believe an industrial investment bank is a concrete step towards that.

We have a country right now where all the capital is going to build AI, technology apps and financial firms, but we need capital also for our small and medium-sized businesses, for our manufacturers.

We need what I call the ‘modern Marshall plan for America’.

It would be an effort to re-industrialize the country.

This is one of the boldest industrialization proposals since FDR’s industrialization efforts, and it’s in the tradition of Hamilton’s efforts.

Section 219 is a betrayal of our sovereignty.

This budget resolution is our best shot at enacting as much of the Save America Act into law as possible.

While millions of Americans are struggling to afford basic necessities, Congress is choosing to authorize over $1tn for the Pentagon, once again funneling billions of taxpayer dollars to defense contractors instead of investing in the…

This young girl, who we didn't know, 18 years old. I’m sure had her own plans and dreams that have all been cut short.

I'm devastated for the impacted family.

I'm just really centering the victim right now. And that's what we all should be doing.

In every job I've ever had, there's a simple expectation. You actually have to be able to do the work. Either you can do it or you can't. And Congress shouldn't be any different.
