U.S. House of Representatives

The Department of Education lacks the authority to transfer offices and programs to other federal agencies without congressional action, and are now trying to cover for the unlawful actions already taken.

Republicans in Congress know that the Department of Education lacks the authority to transfer offices and programs to other federal agencies without congressional action.

Has said that it is her mission to shut down the Department of Education, something she does not have the authority to do, but that is exactly what she is doing, disguised as a series of interagency agreements.

Will actually contribute to the creation of miles of bureaucratic red tape, inconsistent education policy and enforcement across the federal government and a significant waste of the taxpayers’ money.

Is completely and totally out of control.

Clean up corruption

Are you ready to help us take back control of the United States House of Representatives in November?

Are we going to take our country back?

Organized labor has always been there for me, and organized labor is there for the American people,

The additional defense funding is necessary to support our troops and supply them with the munitions and anything else they need to fight, win and return home safely.

My colleagues use the deficit as a pretext to excuse increasing hunger and deepening poverty in this country.

Over the last 18 months, we have seen where Republicans’ priorities are: trillions of dollars in tax cuts for billionaires, tens of billions of dollars for war and absolutely nothing for the American people.

We are going to use reconciliation to make a run at doing what we think will save this country for our children’s future and for the remainder of this century.

I don’t have a lot of confidence in that bill. The original bill that I had was the bill they should have passed. We need to eliminate stock trading by members of Congress.

If Republicans were serious about cleaning up corruption in this town, they would start at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

It’s so filled with holes it would make Swiss cheese blush.

I'm opposed to all foreign aid. I didn't pick on Israel here. I proposed an amendment to defund Egypt and also to defund the aid to Jordan…but I am particularly concerned this year about the foreign aid to Israel.

I'm concerned that the other funding mechanisms that they're talking about, or commingling our technology and supply chains, will have even less transparency than what's going on here today.

Netanyahu said he wants to reduce Israel's dependence on US aid; let's start now.

We’re devastated by the tragedy of what happened, but we want you to know that we stand behind you and your service.

If you’re a 100% rated veteran and your family is covered under your disability rating as well for your medical benefits, you know, VA wasn’t originally designed for pediatric care, for example.

One of the things that the secretary has been very adamant about, that I think has been a good thing, is having a standardized framework within the VA.

There will not be a default.
