House Republicans have yet to bring up a single bill that meaningfully addresses the climate crisis, not a single one.

I thank the gentlewoman for yielding and for bringing us together tonight. It is hard to stand here and look over here. Where is Don? Every night, here he was speaking truth to power. Tonight, I rise with my colleagues in remembrance of…

I really want to make sure that you are not forgiving this $30 billion in California, that that money went to all these criminal rings.
