I always appreciate hearing from the gentleman from Texas. Don't always agree, but he is a friend and he is a gentleman, and I always enjoy seeing him down on the floor. Madam Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Green).

And still I rise. And still I rise a proud descendant of the enslaved people who are the foundational mothers and fathers of the United States of America. They are the foundational mothers and fathers because many of them had their entire…

My Republican colleagues love to pray but can't stay, stay and do the job we were elected to do because, frankly, they aren't capable of governing. Don't believe me? Just think back to the first few days that we were here, the days in…

Thank you, Chairman Luetkemeyer, for holding this hearing today.

I appreciate and thank the gentleman from Alabama for having this Special Order hour. Mr. Speaker, we are here tonight to shed light on the fentanyl crisis that continues ravaging communities nationwide. I must say, I am infuriated when I…
