Over 80 members of Congress have joined the bipartisan Congressional Dyslexia Caucus co-chaired by Rep. Bill Cassidy and Science Committee member Julia Brownley.

We need more schools to embrace and replicate this model so that students can achieve their fullest potential.

Resolution 456 submitted by Representative Bill Cassidy of Louisiana and Representative Brownley provides an up-to-date universal definition of dyslexia.

The purpose of the caucus is to educate other Members of Congress and advance policies, to break down barriers faced by dyslexics.

It urges the House of Representatives to call upon schools along with state and local educational agencies to address the implications that dyslexia has on a student's education.

It is our hope hearing the depth and breadth of the scientific knowledge of dyslexia will alert policymakers to act and to act with a sense of urgency.

I have a personal connection with dyslexia since my niece is dyslexic.

Greater strides need to be made in ensuring that every dyslexic child and adult has a chance to read, to learn, to demonstrate and to realize his or her full potential.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Thank you, Chairman Hudson, for convening this meeting today.

As the Members of this subcommittee are well aware, terrorists continue to target our commercial aviation sector for attack.

How confident are we that we are communicating enough with State police, local police, wildlife and fisheries, and all the other departments to make sure that our facilities offshore and our facilities that connect are covered?

So one of the most important things we can do here in Washington is get the fiscal House in order.

Good morning, sir. You know, you all promised Americans under the Affordable Care Act that they could keep their health plan and their doctor at a lower cost. But as my constituents are seeing, those promises are just empty promises. They…

So that is a hardship on America, isn't it?
