That is right. As we talk to young people and we listen to these stories across the country, it is heartening, though, to offer solutions. I know you are a part of many of the solutions that the Future Forum has been promoting. One of them…
Eric Swalwell
The Public Record
Eric Michael Swalwell is an American politician serving as the U.S. Representative for California's 15th congressional district since 2013. A member of the Democratic Party, Swalwell has focused on issues such as gun control, healthcare, and technology policy during his time in office. He gained national attention for his role in the impeachment proceedings against former President Donald Trump and has been an advocate for progressive reforms within the Democratic Party.
That is right. A lot of times I have told young people our generation is the least home-owning generation America has ever known. In the bay area and the L.A. area, they say: Forget home owning. We just want to be able to rent near where…
In your district, you have one of the best universities in the world, UC-Berkeley, and we have heard on our Future Forum's tour from young students who are either right out of college or about to be out of college that the amount of debt…
Do you think that shining a light on workforce data is probably one of the best ways to kind of reverse an unconscious bias, that unless you are forced to look at the numbers and the behaviors of your company, you are not going to make a…
I believe your office is familiar with this because the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, EERE, has yet to follow through on these directives. And our office and our constituents in the bay area has found this a little bit…
I represent the East Bay out in California, where so many of these apps have been created, are being developed, and being used by my constituents, and other folks in the Bay Area.
You wrote a New York Times op-ed on this that was very frank, very passionate, and I think, for a lot of people, very disturbing to hear how much time Members of Congress have to spend fundraising. I just want to ask you as you start your…
I thank Delegate Plaskett. That was so eloquently said. On Twitter right now under the #futureforum, people are speaking about their democracy and their right to access the polls. Anna Little- Sana tweeted: Election day should be a Federal…
We talked to a lot of innovative young people in Dallas. If I have learned anything about young people--and I remember being up in Manhattan with Congressman Israel and Congresswoman Grace Meng. We were at a district co-workspace. The…
Thank you again, Congressman Sarbanes, for your work. I want to empower young people across America right now, #FutureForum. There is a poll right now: Do you believe Congress should vote to update campaign finance rules? We have had over…
If you look at this chart here, 158 families gave nearly 50 percent of the early 2016 donations. How does that make you feel? If you are a part of the largest generation America has ever known, 80 million people, the most diverse…
I want to again thank my colleague from the Baltimore area in Maryland. I want to ask Congressman Kilmer. The Future Forum went to Seattle. We visited college campuses in the Tacoma and Seattle area. We went to a couple of the big…
Regulation and the threat of new regulation continue to be a major issue of concern for our members.
I too am quite frustrated that it seems that individuals are able to attack networks and individuals with relative little punishment.
Thank you, Congressman Gallego, for participating today. Thank you, Congressman Lieu, for your service to our country and for standing up for Americans now in this new world and understanding that this is a national security issue as well…
That is right, Mr. Boyle. Mr. Gallego has seen this with me. He came out to my congressional district and spoke with millennials in the San Francisco Bay Area. We are aspirational. We are optimistic. We are collaborative. In fact, we came…
Congressman Lieu, an interesting fact about that number. NASA projects that by 2050, between $66 billion and $106 billion worth of existing coastal property will likely be below sea level nationwide, with $238 billion to $507 billion worth…
If oil companies believe in climate change, you can, too. I think that is the message here today. In Paris, over the past few weeks, over a hundred countries, thousands of world leaders, gathered to declare what over 98 percent of the…
Now, Congressman Lieu, talking about this statistic, in the Los Angeles area, there is a lot that young people are doing with startups, especially in clean energy. I had the opportunity to visit an incubator hub, thousands of square feet…
Congressman Gallego, I am curious. You look at this poster board, and we see that 73 percent of people aged 18 to 29 believe that the Earth is warming. Clearly, 73 percent of people in that age range are not Democrats. They are not…
Thank you, Congressman Lieu. Something that is quite interesting to me is that for millennials, when polled or asked about climate change, it is not a partisan issue. In this House, it feels quite like a partisan issue. My question for…
I thank my colleague from Texas for his service in the intelligence community, and I appreciate the bipartisan nature of this bill. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentlewoman from Alabama (Ms. Sewell).
An overwhelming majority of scientists believe that climate change is real, it's caused by man, and we should do something about it.
A majority of Americans have elected the person trying to take on these negotiations.
I do share a belief that, you know, these scientists who work on national security programs shouldn't be treated any differently when the eligibility is considered for student loan forgiveness once they serve for ten years.
