That's the lesson that emerged from the November general election. And it's our hope that we will actually start to see some ideas, some plans, some legislation from our Republican colleagues to accomplish that objective.

What it required was divestiture and American ownership.

And so we're going to stay together on our side of the aisle, be prepared to find common ground when possible, but push back when necessary to defend things like Social Security and Medicare and Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act…

The incoming president indicated that he has a big, massive historic mandate. And so it's our expectation that he will present some ideas which, to date, have not been forthcoming from House or Senate Republicans as it relates to building…

As House Democrats, we are prepared to find bipartisan common ground with the incoming administration on any issue, whenever and wherever possible, in order to make life better for the American people, particularly as it relates to driving…

first, a few words on SALT. A few days ago, the House Freedom Caucus made a ridiculous proposal that Congress should extend the SALT caps after they are set to expire this year by imposing a new cap on New York businesses, large and small…

I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum call be rescinded. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. Recognition of the Minority Leader The Democratic leader is recognized. SALT

The Republican majority has chosen to begin this year with a series of bills intended to fearmonger and demonize immigrants. This legislation not only perpetuates that effort, but it would also have serious consequences for survivors of…

Let's be very clear. Sexual offenses and domestic violence are serious crimes and are already grounds for deportability and inadmissibility, as they should be. Unfortunately, this bill is so poorly drafted that it would result in extremely…

They're surreptitiously passing around USB ports as if they're vials of heroin or cocaine.

I have no regrets at all. I'm on the side of justice, right, and truth.

Didn't I explain to you that I'm not afraid of anything? Because I'm on the side of justice and right. And when history writes about this era, I'm going to be a hero.

let me begin by speaking of the recent news of a cease-fire agreement in the Middle East. I have good news. I have just been informed by the administration that a deal has been agreed to. It is welcome news that there is an agreement that…

now, on the Hegseth hearing, the takeaway from yesterday's hearing on Pete Hegseth is very clear: Pete Hegseth is woefully unfit for the job of Secretary of Defense. For Mr. Hegseth, yesterday's hearing was an exercise in obfuscation. When…
