Madam Speaker, I thank Chairman Brady for yielding. I thank all the people who we have worked with to get to this point because passing the United States-Mexico-Canada trade agreement is going to be a major victory for American workers…

Madam Speaker, I raise this point of order for failure to disclose the waiver of clause 2(j)(1) of rule XI, pursuant to clause 6(g) of rule XIII, which requires the Rules Committee to specify in their report any waiver of a point of order…

Madam Speaker, impeaching a President of the United States. This isn't about some solemn duty tonight. Let's talk about what this is really about. This has been about a political vendetta, a political vendetta that didn't just start with…

Madam Speaker, President Trump, on January 20, 2017, raised his hand and swore to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution. Now we must preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution from him. Madam Speaker, I rise today, not to…

Madam Speaker, I raise a point of order. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Louisiana will state his point of order.

Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Collins) for yielding. Mr. Speaker, the Founders of this country warned us against a single- party impeachment because they feared it would bitterly and perhaps irreparably divide our…

Mr. President, I rise to discuss the spending bill, which we are about to vote on, which is going to increase our deficit by almost a fourth of a trillion dollars over 10 years and of which I think I might be the first speaker. We are…

Mr. Speaker, I have descended into the belly of the beast. I have witnessed the terror within, and I rise committed to oppose the insidious forces which threaten our Republic. America is being severely injured by this betrayal, by this…

I would like to say that your leadership in holding this hearing is a positive sign.

Mr. Speaker, I would not discount things like this letter from the Secretary of Defense, who, on October 7, 2019, received a subpoena and on October 15, 2019, responded. That is not delay, and that is not obfuscation. A week later, they…

Mr. Speaker, I appreciate that. We stand ready to continue this work in good faith, which it has been from the beginning. Obviously, President Trump negotiated this deal, but his trade representative, Ambassador Lighthizer, has done…

Mr. Speaker, I rise for the purpose of inquiring of the majority leader the schedule for next week. I yield to the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. Hoyer), my friend.

Mr. Speaker, we are encouraged by the progress that we are seeing and involved in on the appropriations bills to properly fund the government. As we have both discussed for some time now, the important job of Congress exercising its power…

Mr. Speaker, I share full agreement with what the gentleman talked about in regard to all the agencies as we have had these negotiations and look forward to seeing them come to fruition early next week, to get that approved then. Of…

Mr. Speaker, just to keep the record clear, when the President made that phone call, the oft-misrepeated quote was this: ``I would like you to do us a favor though because our country has been through a lot and Ukraine knows a lot about…

By the way, if the President is victorious in the courts, would the gentleman recognize that he did lose that case, or would the gentleman say that was obfuscation, following the legal process? Again, President Obama, for 6 years on Fast…

Mr. Speaker, I just hope the gentleman isn't asserting that the President of the United States, like any other American has the right, shouldn't have the right to appeal a decision. Ultimately, the courts at some level will resolve any…

Let's keep in mind, President Obama, it took us 6 years to get to the bottom of the Fast and Furious scandal, and we still didn't get all of the information we wanted. For 6 years, President Obama fought various ways in the court. Was that…
