So I would ask the gentleman, I am looking through our Twitter feed here, and we have got a number of people who have kind of chimed in on it. One young person just tweeted at us, Dolores Tejada. She is a child of immigrants from…

Actually, I have a question for the gentleman from Massachusetts. I know you are active on social media, I follow you, and I see you are very in touch with your constituents, particularly those on social media. I am wondering: What are you…

I would ask the gentleman from Pennsylvania, you talk about your call to service and after September 11, and you think back to that day, and I don't know if you remember, but I remember Members of Congress, Republicans and Democrats…

Tonight is the inaugural Special Order hour of the Future Forum. Today young people across America are asking themselves how they are going to afford their education. And if they are even lucky enough to get an education, how they are…

I yield to the gentleman from California (Mr. Ted Lieu), someone who has served our country not just in California's Legislature and not just in the Congress but also in our armed services, and is currently serving in the Air Force…

I thank the gentleman from Massachusetts. I thank my colleagues from California, Colorado, and from Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I will close by saying, as Mr. Moulton alluded to, our principal responsibility can be found in, literally, the…

That is right, Mr. Boyle. Mr. Moulton talked about this. We are taking an issue--immigration--that there are two sharply different sides on in this House, and that is fine. That debate needs to happen. Most people on our side, almost…

While the workers are going to still have to do the job and not get paid, much of the Department will shut down, and an important part that will shut down will be Department of Homeland Security grants. I have had the opportunity in just…

Thank you, Mr. Polis. Something we haven't really talked too much about yet, and we have alluded to the fact that we are charging these transportation safety officers with detecting these hidden bombs that al Qaeda is determined to put on…

It is a message of dysfunction. And I know Mr. Polis, just like Mr. Moulton, is also very much in touch with the doers and DREAMers who are defining the innovation economy, whether it is in the bay area or Colorado or Philadelphia or…

I would ask my colleague, knowing that, as we speak--and the gentleman from Pennsylvania pointed this out, Mr. Boyle--three Americans are in custody right now because of their intent and the steps they took to want to join ISIL. As we…

I thank the gentleman from California. Mr. Speaker, I would like to invite to join our conversation another freshman Member from Massachusetts, somebody who has also served our country very honorably in the Marines, Seth Moulton.

I also wonder, Mr. Speaker, what the gentleman from California thinks, as somebody who is serving in the Reserves right now and serving shoulder to shoulder with some young DREAMers, what would it do to the morale of the ranks if DREAMers…

I thank the gentleman from Massachusetts, and I invite to join the conversation a leader in our party, someone who serves on the House Rules Committee and also the House Appropriations Committee, the gentleman from Colorado (Mr. Polis).

This week, the President put forward his budget. Now, this House has an opportunity to put forward one of our own that reflects the values of those we represent. We have a choice. We can embrace and support the President's budget that…

As the President noted in his State of the Union address last evening, we should be proud of the progress we have made since the Great Recession. But there is too much to do still on growth, especially on the issue of paycheck progress…

Today we mourn with the people of Paris. Americans stand with Paris and attacks on innocent people everywhere across the world. Terrorists are escalating their attacks on innocent people across the world as we speak. Americans here at home…

You were always open, I think, to whatever ideas were out there that could move our country forward.

I and many people in my district have strong concerns about the safety of nuclear energy.

And I was hoping you could tell us about the role our national labs are playing to keep us safe.

I have enjoyed working with you. You were very kind early on when we both were selected to lead our respective sides.

I believe when it comes to energy if we can make it safe, we should make it happen.

I have stated a number of times that I just referenced that I believe and support an all-of-the-above 'if we can make it safe, we should make it happen' approach to clean energy.

It is truly an honor to pay tribute to two legislators, two lions of the United States Congress whom I am honored to have had the privilege to serve with for 2 years. Henry, it is often said that there is nothing more important than one's…

I look forward to working with my colleagues on the other side of the aisle and with all of the stakeholders in this critical, critical area moving forward.
