Mr. President, I am here to talk today about a subject of urgency for our Nation but a subject that many Democrats in this body don't want to talk about. I mean Afghanistan. Thirteen American soldiers, dead; 169 civilians, dead; hundreds…

Madam President, obviously, when you look at what needs to be done in the fall and, frankly, if you look at what needs to be done in the next few weeks, there are important items ahead of us. One of them that my colleague from Florida just…

Mr. President, I am here today to talk about the crisis in Afghanistan and to honor the distinguished service of those who gave the last full measure of their devotion protecting Americans there. For the last month, Americans have watched…

Mr. President, I rise today to join my colleagues in honoring the 13 servicemembers who were killed in action in Afghanistan last month doing what only the bravest and the most extraordinary Americans do: risking their lives to save…

I thank the gentlewoman from Minnesota for yielding. The last 24 hours, we need to just step back and look at it. And I need to remind my colleagues and remind the folks across the aisle that what we just witnessed is a circus; and also…

I ask for the yeas and nays. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The question is on agreeing to the amendment. The yeas and nays have been ordered. The clerk will call the roll. The senior assistant legislative clerk called the roll.

Mr. President, I rise today in support of hiring more law enforcement officers across this country--100,000 more, to be precise. And here is why. We are in the midst of an unprecedented crime wave in this country, a crime wave of violent…

Mr. President, I ask that my amendment be called up, No. 2734, and that it be reported by number. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the amendment by number. The senior assistant legislative clerk read as follows: The Senator…

Madam President, when President Biden was campaigning last year, he made the pledge over and over again that he wouldn't raise taxes on any American making less than $400,000 a year. Frankly, I think that is a good pledge, and it is one…

I thank the gentleman from Oklahoma for yielding. Madam Speaker, we are debating a spending bill under a budget that doesn't exist. Six months into Joe Biden's Presidency and a Democrat- controlled Congress, we have still not passed a…

But as we are here today, Democrats would rather bypass their budget process and talk about their liberal wish list. Mr. McGOVERN. Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. People always ask: Why don't you work together…

Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea'' on rollcall No. 218. Ms. DeGETTE. Mr. Speaker, on July 22, 2021, I was unable to be present to cast my vote on the Averting Loss of Life and Injury by Expediting SIVs Act of 2021 or the Allies…
