I, along with a united Virginia congressional delegation, do believe that northern Virginia would make the ideal location for the new FBI headquarters.

Now it seems to me that the health care side of VA has done things that apparently the benefits side has not because the number of complaints about the quality and access to health care has diminished significantly and the number of…

What process is in place that allows you to prioritize those claims in which, if you fail to provide the benefits, the veteran suffers dramatically?

You can sense the frustration that many of us have on this topic and part of it is that we have heard the potential for success so many times without seeing the results that we want to see.

I would like to draw the House's attention to the compelling issue of climate change that the House majority continues to refuse to address. There are a number of us who plan on speaking every day on the House floor on the need for…

I really do believe that we can unlock lots of opportunities for Americans in job creation.

Well, I would, again, through the Presiding Officer, ask a question of the Senator from Kentucky. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Kansas.
