Mr. Speaker, yesterday's decision by the Supreme Court to uphold ObamaCare is discouraging for America's small businesses by destroying jobs and threatening families with the loss of their insurance policies. When the President lobbied for…

Mr. Chairman, you all know that last night was the 51st annual Congressional Quarterly-Roll Call baseball game for charity, and I'm pleased to inform the House this morning that the Democratic team won 18-5 last night. Mr. Chairman, there…

We want to give a round of applause to our Chaplain, too, for playing in the game. One final look: here's the trophy, guys. Amendment Offered by Mr. Lankford The Acting CHAIR. Without objection, 2-minute voting will continue. There was no…

I think it is also notable that our House Chaplain, Father Conroy, did get a chance to play in the game last night. We put him in as a pinch runner. I think it's notable to say Father Conroy stole home.

Mr. Speaker, my question is simply this: What percentage of the truth do you want? When we're asked to negotiate; when the Attorney General comes and asks us for an extraordinary accommodation, whatever that means; when we're asked to…

Mr. Speaker, I thank the chairman. This is a sad day, Mr. Speaker, for those of us who respect the rule of law as the foundation of this Republic, for those of us who proudly worked for the Department of Justice, for those of us who…

Mr. President, there are a couple observations I would like to make about the historic ruling by the Supreme Court today. No. 1 is about the legislative process. Members of Congress during the debate on Obama health care had a very…

I ask consent to be recognized for 5 minutes to speak about the Supreme Court's ruling. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.

We have been trying for 18 long months to get to the bottom of this issue, and yet we are being stonewalled. Yes, we hear that the Federal Government has provided 7,000-plus pages; but, Mr. Speaker, there are over 100,000 pages that we…

I thank the gentleman for the time. Mr. Speaker, it seems to me that my friends on the left need some clarification on why we are here this afternoon. This is not a good day for America, and it is certainly still not a good day for the…

Mr. Speaker, today's decision by the Supreme Court is extremely disappointing, undermining limited government and expanded freedom. The decision reveals ObamaCare as a huge tax increase on middle class taxpayers, destroying jobs. We should…

Mr. Speaker, Americans will find out what we've been anxiously awaiting for the past 2 years: whether or not the government health care takeover bill is constitutional. Tomorrow, at 10 a.m., people across the Nation will be closely…

I want to commend Mr. Huizenga for, especially for proceeding in as bipartisan a fashion as possible.

Mr. Speaker, yesterday, the Supreme Court upheld section 2(b), or the ``Check Your Papers'' provision, of the Arizona immigration law. This requires the police to check the immigration status of persons whom they detain before releasing…

It baffles me that when we can grant licenses for 30 or 50 years... we require something that is so complex, expensive, and lengthy in the re-licensing process.

Somebody as a member of a foreign terrorist organization coming into this country is absolutely your responsibility. Absolutely.

I would like to once hear somebody from this administration admit they made a mistake, and own up to it, and see some disciplinary action, if necessary.

I thank the chairman. There can be no national security without energy security. Let that sink in. There can be no national security without energy security. House Republicans support a truly all-of-the-above energy policy, not one put…
