I want them to understand they have a mission that is bigger than they are.

They understand. We all understand that we have to refill that well of credibility because of recent events and mistakes.

Absolutely. I totally agree. You are absolutely right. I would commend the gentleman for being one of those leaders in our country who is standing up for the working people of this country. I would just note the president of the Teamsters…

Absolutely. This is commonsense reform. Again, I commend Congressman Young and other colleagues who have sponsored the Save American Workers Act. This is a simple piece of legislation. It would simply repeal the 30-hour definition of…

I thank my friend, the gentleman from Indiana, Congressman Young, for his leadership on this very important issue. Mr. Speaker, it is an important issue because ObamaCare is hurting American families. It is hurting American employers. It…

I am very appreciative, and I thank you so very much for focusing on racism, discrimination, disparate impact, and intentional discrimination.

I am not interested in scoring any political points on an issue as important as discrimination and retaliation.

I want nothing but swift justice for Ms. Martin, and I want to thank her for her service to our government and to our country as a member of our Nation's military.

I like your leadership on racism and discrimination.

What we heard today about racism and about the way that employees are being treated is a story that I have been trying to tell.

I know that Members on the opposite side of the aisle have dismissed this as a legal theory.
