Madam President, over the past week, the Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas has launched more than 3,000 rockets at civilian targets in Israel. Violent mobs have taken over the streets of Jerusalem, and even seasoned veterans of the…

I remind the House that we were under attack on January 6. Earlier this week a freshman Republican said that January 6 could have been seen as just a typical tourist day in the Capitol. Well, let me tell that gentleman that on typical…

I thank Chairwoman Waters for her important work on this bill and for helping with my amendment to be included therein. The amendment that I have is cosponsored by Representatives Ocasio- Cortez and Bonamici. It adds a section to the law…

In the beginning of this week because of the routine inspection by the Department of Transportation in Arkansas, it was discovered that the Hernando De Soto Bridge that crosses the Mississippi River between Memphis and Arkansas had a major…

Madam President, as I offer these remarks on the Senate floor today, tensions between Israel and Palestine continue to escalate to levels we haven't seen in years. Innocent lives have been lost, and hundreds face injuries. While the global…

Mr. President, I was on the floor earlier this week, and I made a point that I think is really relevant to the discussion that we are having today as we are now looking straight into these proposals coming from the administration that…

Before I jump into my remarks, I would like to echo what my colleague from Texas said. The interesting thing about the Major League Baseball decision is, only 2 days before they decided that voter ID was too tough for them, they signed a…

This week is National Police Week, and I rise to honor the brave men and women of law enforcement who gave their lives to protect our communities. In 1962, National Police Week was established by President John F. Kennedy, a Democrat. But…

Mr. President, I rise in support of amendment No. 1458, which I introduced. It will narrow the scope of the tangled web of regulatory guidance that the bill calls for and keep politics out of the process of reporting and addressing hate…

Madam President, I rise today to discuss my serious concerns about the judgment and the temperament of the nominee Colin Kahl, the controversial nominee to be the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy, the third highest position in our…
