A budget reflects one's values. President Trump's budget shows he values polluters and profits over people. With the ink barely dry on the Republican tax scam, Trump's budget proposes we pay for their corporate giveaway by gutting public…
Today I rise to commemorate Korean American Day, which celebrates the arrival of the first 102 Korean immigrants to the United States on January 13, 1903. The first Korean immigrants came in pursuit of the American Dream and initially…
From California to New York and everywhere in between, the Republican tax scam steals from working class families to give the top 1 percent and large corporations a massive tax break. The Republican plan eliminates deductions like State…
if the price kills us, we are not really getting ahead. So we really need the President and all of us to get involved in trying to do legitimate things to contain this, in my view, price gouging.
President Trump has said that he wants--he said that the pharma companies on pricing are getting away with murder.
I thank Congressman Espaillat for leading this important Special Order. It is no secret that many cities in our country face an affordable housing crisis. That crisis is particularly acute in California, as everyone in my State, from the…
Congratulations to Houston: Houston strong, and Houston proud. ____________________
I thank the gentlewoman. In the spirit of good sportsmanship, I accept the gentlewoman's wager and the barbecue that I will get to enjoy next week. The Houston Astros are an amazing team, with 101 wins, but the Dodgers are better, with…
The reason why it is so important is that there is a historic undercount in these communities.
You have a tough, tough job. I appreciate that there has been thought about the political environment and the immigration enforcement.
I am fearful that that will go up in this next census because of the immigration policies, especially the interior enforcement policies of this new administration.
I am pleased to join my colleagues in consideration of H.R. 294, a bill to designate the facility of the United States Post Office located at 2700 Cullen Boulevard in Pearland, Texas, as the Endy Nddiobong Ekpanya Post Office. Endy Ekpanya…
When I was sworn into Congress, I said that one of my main duties was to fight for my constituents, no matter where they were from, no matter what God they worshipped, no matter the color of their skin; if they came here, they believed in…
I am pleased to join my colleagues in consideration of H.R. 2254, a bill to designate the facility of the United States Post Service located at 2635 Napa Street in Vallejo, California, as the Janet Capello Post Office Building. H.R. 2254…
I believe that this administration's repeated attempt at a Muslim ban, the normalization of racism by this Department of Justice, and the brazen attacks on the LGBT community undermine our moral authority and undermine our ability to…
Unfortunately, religious freedom under this administration means nothing more than giving certain groups the license to discriminate against people of color, Muslims, people of a non-Christian faith, and the LGBT community.
I can't believe Congress has closed legislative business for the week without addressing a critical deadline that will impact the health of our country. On September 30, authorization for the Community Health Centers and the Children's…
We all know nuclear waste is a serious health hazard. It threatens the health and safety of Americans from 329 congressional districts across 44 States and the District of Columbia.
the deal that was made was we paid the Federal Government to remove it, and it's not being removed.
It would be almost impossible to find a dumber, more dangerous, more completely irresponsible place to dump nuclear waste than West Lake Landfill.
Waiting for a nuclear waste crisis is a recipe for disaster, and I'm glad that this subcommittee is here today to explore this issue further.
I think over the years we have seen Republicans and Democrats agree that conserving America's ocean fish makes good economic and environmental sense.
I believe that safety needs to be the top priority in selecting a permanent site for our nuclear waste.
It is my hope that this Committee continues that tradition of bipartisan support for the MSA, and preserves its legacy of success by opposing any efforts to weaken the law.
The U.S. Government created a nuclear waste problem 75 years ago, and we have a responsibility to finally clean it up.
Politicians like Jimmy Gomez
