Mr. President, I yield the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from North Dakota.

Mr. President, I know the distinguished Senator from North Dakota is going to speak, but if she would withhold for 1 moment, I ask unanimous consent that the time until 4:45 p.m. be equally divided between the two leaders or their…

I thank my good friend for yielding. I want to thank Virginia Foxx for her extraordinary leadership on behalf of the weakest and the most vulnerable among us. Madam Speaker, because abortion dismembers, decapitates, or chemically poisons…

I thank my good friend for her leadership and her very eloquent remarks. My friend from New York talked about a narrow agenda and a narrow perspective. More than 60 percent of every poll, in the case of one poll, 69 percent of all women in…

I thank the gentlelady for yielding and for her extraordinary leadership. Madam Speaker, let me again convey to my colleagues the fact that H.R. 7 seeks to make the Hyde amendment and other current abortion funding prohibitions permanent…

Mr. President, I rise in support of the Homeowner Flood Insurance Affordability Act, which I have sponsored with Senator Isakson. It is a bipartisan, bicameral piece of legislation to ensure that families will be able to afford flood…

I am afraid the bill before the House today, H.R. 3362, the Exchange Information Disclosure Act, is simply an effort by Republicans to continue to impede the efforts of the administration to implement the Affordable Care Act. Transparency…

Again, this GOP bill is designed to harass the Department, preventing it from doing its job. It is an unworkable, unnecessary bill that places onerous, unrealistic, and costly reporting requirements on HHS, with no benefit to the general…

May I just ask how much time remains. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from New Jersey has 5 minutes remaining. The gentleman from Pennsylvania has 10 minutes remaining.

Thank you very much, Ambassador, for your very eloquent comments. I would like to yield to my good friend and colleague from Michigan, Tim Walberg.

Mr. Huelskamp, thank you very much. And thank you for your work on the Pro-life Caucus. You have really stepped up, and it is deeply appreciated by all of us. Thank you so very much. I would like to now yield to, we have a number of…

Thank you, Mr. Pittenger. May I inquire of the Chair how much time I have remaining? The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from New Jersey has about 2 minutes remaining.

I thank my good friend and colleague for his leadership, for standing so strong, and for reminding everyone about the importance of the crisis pregnancy centers, which are a lifeline to so many women who might otherwise abort and make that…

Thank you very much, Dr. Benishek. Just to close, Mr. Speaker, 41 years ago next week--January 22--marks the U.S. Supreme Court's infamous, reckless, and inhumane abandonment of women and babies to abortionists. Forty-one years of…

I thank my friend. I would like to now yield to the gentleman from North Carolina (Mr. Pittenger).

Thank you very much. I would like to now yield to my good friend and colleague from Colorado (Mr. Lamborn).

I thank my friend for his very, very wise comments and very eloquent comments. I would like to now yield to the gentleman from California (Mr. LaMalfa). Mr. LaMALFA. Thank you, my colleague from New Jersey, for leading this discussion here…

Mrs. Roby, thank you very much for, again, underscoring the viable option that is available and that is far too seldom selected, and that is the loving option of adoption. I now yield to the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Latta).
