Mr. Speaker, it is important, I think, to come over here and discuss H.R. 1428, the Judicial Redress Act. Echoing a lot that has been said already, this is a great starting point for, really, a broader conversation about privacy rights and…

Mr. Speaker, I move that the House do now adjourn. The motion was agreed to; accordingly (at 8 o'clock and 56 minutes p.m.), under its previous order, the House adjourned until tomorrow, Wednesday, October 21, 2015, at 10 a.m. for…

I thank all of my colleagues for coming here tonight. I am going to go back to where we started: Live your ``why.'' Live your ``why.'' That is all we are asking. Our independent pharmacists and our community pharmacists are just simply…

When things change and when they say that we can't give input because we are scared, that is just a problem. We are coming up on our time of closing. Any last comments, Mr. Loebsack?

Thank you, Mr. Blum. I think what you have recognized are the struggles that are going on right now. And what I have found--I was speaking with a Member tonight from one of our Midwestern districts. It was on the floor as we were voting…

Well, Mr. Scott, I don't disagree with you. I thank you for being here. You have been a great champion to this cause as well. I think the interesting thing here--I want to repeat--basically, what we are going back to is some simple fixes…

It is baffling. That is why H.R. 244 simply says you have 7 days to update the list, number one. Number two, it says that patients will not be forced by PBMs to use a PBM-owned pharmacy, an obvious conflict of interest. And according to…

Mr. Speaker, I appreciate my friend from Georgia and his passionate defense of what we are doing here tonight. Earlier this month many of my colleagues and I sent a letter to CMS in support of proposed guidance to ensure part D plan…

the American people are really getting tired of, and our farmers are really getting tired of, is, we have to export 80 percent of our cotton in my district.

Mr. Loebsack, you hit it right. There are so many times we get to talking policy and big picture up here. The bottom line is what we do up here--and when I was in the State legislature, you could see it because you were a little bit…

I thank my colleague. I do appreciate that. And that is the issue here: education. People can look in on this. They can hear what we are talking about. They can see this education part of it. This is found in every district. It is almost…

Thank you, Representative Collins, and thank you for hosting this tonight. This is certainly a very important subject. It is very important to me, personally, yes, but it is more important to our healthcare system. Mr. Speaker, for over…

Well, there is no question about it. As I said earlier, I am a free market guy. All I want to do is compete, and I want to compete on a level playing field. Let me compete. You know, when I first entered pharmacy before PBMs became so…

Oh, there is no question about it. In fact, I have experienced it. Look, I have been a community pharmacist, as I said earlier, for 34 years. I have been in business for myself for almost 28 years now. I live near where my pharmacy is. I…

I do see that. I want to mention just two things. First of all, as an American taxpayer, you can imagine my being in business and having what we call ``taxation without participation.'' Here we have Medicare part D plans that are paid for…

I will very quickly. First of all, again, I want to thank you, Representative Collins and my colleagues--all of you--for participating in this. This has been a great exercise. Among my proudest possessions are the plaques that the baseball…

Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of National Forest Products Week. The forestry and wood product manufacturing industry support over 44,000 jobs in the State of Georgia. Over the past several years, many architects around the world…

North Korea continues to supply technology, components, and even raw materials for Iran's highly enriched uranium weaponization program.
