I again, thank the chairwoman and her team for making this very important piece of legislation that is so important to our seniors and to our vulnerable adults happen. Again, in 2018, the SEC put this together as something we should be…

I urge my colleagues to support H.R. 2989, and I yield back the balance of my time.

I thank the chairwoman, again, for her strong legislation. I would urge all my colleagues to support H.R. 4111, the Sovereign Debt Contract Capacity Act, and I yield back the balance of my time.

On August 26th, 13 American families experienced the worst day of their lives. They received the knock on the door that every parent of a servicemember prays will never come. For those families, the conversation that followed was the most…

Mr. President, I want to thank my good friend Senator Moran for actually all he has done to try to make it possible to see the FIFA World Cup games come to Kansas City. This is the biggest sporting event in the world. Frankly, soccer has…

On that I demand the yeas and nays. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to section 3(s) of House Resolution 8, the yeas and nays are ordered. The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 365, nays 51, not voting 15, as…

To close. Again, Mr. Speaker, this process has been horribly managed, and it is unfortunate that we didn't take this action before transportation programs were shut down and people were furloughed. Having said that, we need to provide this…

Today I rise in opposition to the Democrats' infrastructure proposal. This weekend the President said that his Build Back Better agenda costs zero dollars and that it adds zero dollars to the national debt. With all due respect, I…

I truly hope that my Democrat colleagues don't believe the garbage that they have been spouting, but I would say that they probably do. Unfortunately, for months Democrats have been pursuing a radical partisan agenda that contains the most…

I reserve the balance of my time. Mr. DeFAZIO. Mr. Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. Hoyer), the majority leader.

Mr. President, I object. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard. The Senator from New Jersey.
