I am truly grateful for the brave and heroic service of Lance Corporal Weaver. Let us not forget the ultimate sacrifice that he and so many other young Americans have made in promoting freedom and in protecting our great Nation. I urge all…

I'm glad to be here with my colleagues from Pennsylvania. My thoughts of Coach Paterno go way back to the time when I was a really young guy in Butler, Pennsylvania, and Coach Paterno at that time was an assistant coach for Rip Engle…

we are all pro-worker people, we are all pro-labor, we want to see people back to work.

we want to make sure that we protect the constitutional rights that people have under the First Amendment.

nobody should ever force you to give money to a political candidate you do not want to give money to.

I don't think anybody should ever be forced to donate to a political campaign or a candidate.

I thank the gentleman from California. I do stand in strong support of the Civilian Property Realignment Act, and I'll tell you why. I come from the private sector where sometimes assets become liabilities. An asset becomes a liability…

I am glad we are having this hearing because I know back in my District quite a few of the companies that are involved in this are also wondering about how difficult it is and how more difficult it is going to become for them to compete in…

I thank the gentleman from Texas. I come from a family that in 1953 started in the automobile business. My father came from being a parts picker in a warehouse for General Motors, surviving World War II and then coming back home and…

I agree with the gentleman, and I will tell you that I join in your fight. This is not only a fight that we must fight; this is a battle we must win. {time} 2100 I will fight with you every step of the way. We cannot continue to take a…

It's all price point and it's all affordability, and it comes down to: How much per month does it cost for the average, hardworking American family to keep private transportation? We are raising the price by $3,200 per car. We are…

Yes, absolutely. We talked about that. The loopholes in this program are not for the hardworking American families that go to work every day to support their kids and their families and their well-being. The folks really don't buy these…

Again, I appreciate the gentleman for bringing this topic up. We have to understand that, if we are really going to get this economy back on track, it is the people who make things--and we talk about making it in America. If we're really…

the responsibility that we all have to the American public is the same thing: to protect them from health care costs or economic costs related from an injury.

General Motors does not need the help of the taxpayers to subsidize their cars.

it's a matter, Mr. Kucinich, of protecting people from harm, and in this case I think we're protecting the administration more than we are the American public.

We are not some benevolent monarchy that showers favors on people. We take it out of hardworking American taxpayers' pockets.
