We want women, moms to be healthy, successful, and prosperous.

I'm open to the tough conversations. I think we should all be, but we shouldn't minimize by dehumanizing.

When would an abortion be necessary, quote, to save the life of the mother?

Of course I do. We have fought bitterly. I mean, even if you just look at the last few years here since the pandemic, the pandemic was unexpected, decisions were made, and in hindsight we obviously made some wrong choices. Be that as it…

I was unavoidably detained. Had I been present, I would have voted YEA on Roll Call No. 235. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the resolution. The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that the ayes appeared…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 31, line 17, after the dollar amount, insert ``(increased by $1,000,000) (reduced by $1,000,000)''…

The treatment is not dangerous at all. As a matter of fact, it is offered in at least 11 VA facilities, but only that many, and not all of the VA facilities. It has been around since the 1920s. It is not dangerous at all. As a matter of…

I thank the chairman for his hard work on the bill. None of this is easy. This amendment addresses a potential solution for our Nation's veterans and servicemembers suffering with PTSD and PTSI. Estimates from the VA paint a harsh picture…

By direction of the Committee on Rules, I call up House Resolution 1269 and ask for its immediate consideration. The Clerk read the resolution, as follows: H. Res. 1269 Resolved, That at any time after adoption of this resolution the…

I thank the gentlewoman from Florida for yielding. I rise in opposition to the bill. I think that at this moment, my fellow veterans and the VA are at a critical point in time. We are seeing folks come in, because of the PACT Act, who…

We would actually have taken in enough revenue to pay for the things that we were buying, but a substantial portion of this body, unfortunately, my friends, my colleagues on the other side of the aisle, said: No, no, no. We are going to…

I don't know if you talked about disability, where we have gotten the money for the increase in disability, how we are making up for that, what the growth of that number looks like, and what the plan for the future is.

There it is, laying on the desk. This is the owner's manual. This is the operator's manual. This is the set of instructions for running your country. We all take an oath to follow this thing. However, if you are not going to, if you choose…

No words that we can use today can adequately honor the sacrifices of those who gave the last full measure and signed up to do it. There is just no way you can describe what they endured and what they knew they were going to endure. Many…

I was unable to vote during rollcall votes No. 235 and No. 236 on the floor of the House of Representatives. Had I been present, I would have voted NO on rollcall votes No. 235 and No. 236. PERSONAL EXPLANATION

Somebody wanted that, so I am supposed to go along with that. The people that I represent that wake up early in the morning and go to work and pay their taxes, their money is going for that when they can't afford their electricity bill…

Of course, I have heard it. I have heard it ever since I have been here. There is always some reason: We have a slim majority. We don't have a majority at all. We don't have 60. We don't have the Presidency. We have this House, not that…
