Do you foresee, as we look at making sure that drugs can get to the market... that there is a special category, though, for those types of drugs?

the American people deserve a government that is in their corner fighting for them to take on drug profiteering and price hikes.
I'm extremely proud of my work with Chairman Marino and our introduction of H.R. 2122, the CREATES Act, a targeted solution to reduce drugs prices by increasing generic competition.
I think he should come before our committee. We should be able to have access to all of the evidence so that we can again confront him with it to see just what is the truth.
We have to tell the country that the so what is that our democracy has been undermined by a foreign adversary and we have to do everything now as leaders in Congress to never put our country in a position like this again.
I think Attorney General Sessions should step down, given tonight's breaking new news, which cast doubt on the attorney general past statements on contact with Russians.
This is a time for Congress to thoughtfully and aggressively put a check on this president.
The Senate should not recess or do anything that would allow a recess appointment to take place. They should ensure that whoever would be appointed next, if he does step down, is somebody who is going to allow the Russia investigation to…
For all of those reasons, so that the Justice Department can function without this chaos, I don't think he should any longer be the attorney general.
Attorney general Sessions should no longer serve, I believe for other reasons. He's already lost the trust of the American people. He wasn't forthcoming about his contacts with Russia as they were interfering in our campaign. He…
I certainly support our ranking member. We want to interview all relevant witnesses. And what we want to find out with any witness that was talking with Russians during the interference campaign is, what was the nature of the relationship…
I can't speak for anyone else, but for me, Anderson, to receive damaging information from a representative of a foreign adversary, that's a betrayal of our country.
Well, Anderson, the fact that we have an investigation and the FBI has an investigation shows that there is evidence of collusion.
We want to know are there tapes, or did he make this claim as a way to intimidate or chill James Comey from putting forward his account of what happened.
The president has gotten in the way of the FBI's investigation, the House Intelligence Committee's investigation. And we just want to start making progress again.
We are seeking these voluntarily right now. That's always the best way in an investigation is to have cooperation.
It appears that the president may have just made it to be deceitful, as he did against President Obama.
I think that's inappropriate and I hope that he stops doing that because we still need to work with him on non-Russia related matters and he needs to have credibility when we do that.
There are also, John, other witnesses who will be relevant here. Jeff Sessions apparently was in the room. Jared Kushner was in the room.
This is a serious investigation. He was standing in quite a prestigious place, the Rose Garden. And he was asked, are there tapes?
As far as I know, we have not heard from the White House. And these are the words of the president. You know, he a few weeks back said that Director Comey at the time better -- or former Director Comey better hope that there are not tapes.
I thank the gentleman from Florida for yielding. I urge my colleagues to defeat the previous question and allow an amendment to come forward so that we can debate having an independent commission on Russia's interference in our past…
I saw how our country responded after the last serious attack that occurred on September 11. Outside, on the Capitol steps, Republicans and Democrats joined hands. They sang ``God Bless America.'' But more importantly were the reforms that…
