The Public Record
U.S. Representative
If I heard the gentleman correctly, he wants an open rule. Let me restate: we had no amendments offered at the committee of jurisdiction and no amendments offered before the Rules Committee, so that would fly in the face of our desire here…
They brought up the EPA over and over again. I hear about the EPA everywhere I go.
They are angry about a Federal Government that is overreaching and hurting them. That is what they are angry about.
I am pleased to yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Louisiana (Mr. Boustany), who is a tireless advocate for the energy interests of his State of Louisiana.
For the purpose of debate only, I yield the customary 30 minutes to the gentleman from Colorado (Mr. Polis), pending which I yield myself such time as I may consume. During consideration of this resolution, all time yielded is for the…
I am going to do everything I can to make sure that we preserve what has been a system that has worked so well.
I think in Europe and in Asia, they look at this model and they must just shake their heads in disbelief.
This Board is going to do whatever the union wants them to do, and that is not the way this was set up.
It makes no sense at all, unless your goal simply is to try to get more people to belong to labor unions.
I cannot imagine that he and the other people that sat in the Constitutional Convention would have dreamt in a second that the government they were creating would take away from people the opportunity to create that.
What happens to that economic development model for Alabama, and for southwest Alabama, and for other southern States... if the NLRB changes the joint employer definition?
Issues like the NLRB's definition of a 'joint employer' under national labor law affects Main Street businesses in a real way.
The last thing we need is for an unelected and unaccountable board of bureaucrats to make it more difficult to pursue the American Dream.
I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will report the amendment. The Clerk read as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds made available by this Act…
I want to thank the gentleman from Texas for his superb work in this area. We are in great debt to you for all that you have done. And I am 100 percent confident you will continue to do that. I don't know the new leadership over there. I…
I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will report the amendment. The Clerk read as follows: Page 33, line 19, after the dollar amount, insert ``(reduced by $250,000,000)''. The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House…
Where in the world are you getting your information that business people don't take that into account?
For the purpose of debate only, I yield the customary 30 minutes to the gentleman from Massachusetts (Mr. McGovern), pending which I yield myself such time as I may consume. During consideration of this resolution, all time yielded is for…
And Ohio as we do about these alternative energy programs that we are subsidizing. No one is subsidizing those coal miners; no one is subsidizing their families that have lost their means of living, but we are going to subsidize all these…
I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will report the amendment. The Clerk read as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds made available by this Act…
The Board's rule eviscerates the right of employers to speak freely to employees during an organizing campaign.
I urge the President and every member of Congress to choose the latter by supporting H.J. Res. 29.
This executive order represents an overstep of authority by the President at the expense of employers and workers and the taxpayers.
These aggressive new regulations are going to unreasonably block responsible parties from participating in federal government contracts.
Politicians like Bradley Byrne
