I thank the gentleman for yielding. I rise in strong support of this amendment, the Beyer-Eshoo-Esty amendment, which restores funding to make it equal to the fiscal year 2018 level agreed to by Congress earlier this year for ARPA-E, which…

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 21, line 24, after the dollar amount, insert ``(increased by $1,000,000)''. Page 32, line 1, after the…

The threats we faced in 2001 have not gone away. They have evolved and new threats have emerged.

I think it's important for all members to know that the stockpile isn't moving anywhere. It's going to remain with the CDC.

I think that even in the meeting that we had we came over to the agency, you sensed my lack of confidence in what ASPR is doing.

The official government death count for Hurricane Maria, relative to Puerto Rico, was 64.

We need to give the agency the tools that they need and the resources they need to respond to the threats that confront us.

It's important that this committee work to reauthorize PAHPA in a timely manner before it expires at the end of this fiscal year.

First, I want to acknowledge the hard work that my colleagues Congresswoman Speier and Congressman Panetta have done, along with myself, to address airplane noise in our Bay Area congressional districts. I am pleased to support Mr…

I may be elected but I'm not a fool. That's really a lousy answer from someone that has a high position in the federal government.

public officials and public office have a public trust to live up to.

I think it is an embarrassment to our country, and I think it is offensive to constituents.

I may be elected, but I am not a fool. That is really a lousy answer from someone that has a high position in the Federal Government.

if a public official loses the trust of people, his or her ability then becomes crippled because of the trust factor.

I thank our beloved John Lewis for yielding time to me. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in strong support of H.R. 5444, the Taxpayer First Act. This is bipartisan legislation, and it was unanimously reported out by the Committee on Ways and…
