U.S. House of Representatives

For decades, we have accepted this ritual of springing forward and falling back, even though it disrupts routines, throws off our sleep and creates unnecessary frustration for families across the country.

I don't really know yet, but I do know that I'm surely not ready to retire. I'm 50, but I feel like a real young 50, and I'm still filled with plenty of piss and vinegar. Let's go get it done.

Well, I think an absolute onslaught of negative ads the last three or four weeks against me, they really worked. Told people I was a career politician, that I was a RINO, that I was a liberal, and we saw in the polling that that was…

The other thing we have to acknowledge is one party's not going to get this done. And I know that's hard for Republicans to hear because so many Republican office holders have sold the American people a bill of goods that this can be done…

Well, everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die. I've certainly rolled out a number of plans that would have some pretty substantial reforms to our entitlement programs.

I think the biggest mistake is that we're basically sleepwalking through this competition. I mean, every day the leaders of China get up, and they try to figure out how to beat America, how to destabilize our country, how to get an…

Because that’s the Michigan way, right?

I am going to be working on our behalf. I am going to be telling the stories on our behalf. And you better believe I’m going to bring it with a little bit of enthusiasm, a little bit of energy and a little bit of stick-it-to-them.

Acting AG Todd Blanche has spent this confirmation fight doing what he's always done for his client Donald Trump: Denying the obvious, defending the indefensible, and lying under oath. He's already made it clear that we can’t trust a word…

He's got a record. It's not what he says. It's what he's done and what he's consistently done is put Donald Trump above everything else. So his actions, this is a person who's got a very clear record.

I look forward to confirming Mr. Blanche as Attorney General so he can continue his great work to crack down on crime, eradicate the two tiers of justice, and wipe out fraud. That’s exactly what Lindsey would’ve wanted us to do to honor…

We have a dysfunctional House.

If John Thune strips it out in the Senate that will be on him and the entire country should be watching what he does.

Donald Trump does not get to drag the American people deeper into a war he cannot explain and does not know how to end, and then demand Congress look the other way.

The NDAA cannot become a permission slip for that recklessness that we see occurring in Iran.

Yet Republicans want the Senate to take up the NDAA, the defense bill, as though none of this is happening?

Permanent daylight savings time was repealed within a year because it didn't work.

The clock changes disrupt schedules "for no good reason."

I don't really know anybody who wants to change the clock anymore.

Trust me, I will hold him to it.

I still think I’m 37.

I would love for there to be no PACs at all, get rid of Citizens United, take money out of politics. But in the meantime, we’ve got to fight fire with fire.

We spent an enormous amount of time trying to help people connect to state and local services, whether it’s everything from housing, to getting food, to health care, job search.

The biggest part of affordability is energy costs, and if we can break through with the creation of fusion energy, we can solve climate change, lift the remaining two billion people out of poverty and also dramatically reduce costs for…
