I am so pleased that you are holding this hearing, because information regarding Emergent is absolutely concerning.

Continuing with this restructuring argument, however, I think touting these restructurings as successful ignores the pain and suffering that any sovereign debt crisis inflicts on a country's citizens, especially the poor.

I am pleased we finally have that leadership in the White House with President Joe Biden.

This bill provides urgently needed protections to individuals and families from unfair and abusive debt collection practices. Consumers should not have to face harassment or threats from abusive debt collectors, especially in the midst of…

May I inquire as to how much time I have remaining. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Suozzi). The gentlewoman has 10\1/2\ minutes remaining.

On that I demand the yeas and nays. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to section 3(s) of House Resolution 8, the yeas and nays are ordered. The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 215, nays 207, not voting 8, as…

In a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out there and you create a crowd and you push back on them, and you tell them they are not welcome here anymore.

Well, we have got to stay on the street. We have got to get more active. We have to get more confrontational. We have to make sure they know we mean business.

We created a Subcommittee on Diversity and Inclusion, and your Task Force on Artificial Intelligence works very well with that subcommittee.

I am so delighted and excited about artificial intelligence, and I am very pleased that you chose to provide the leadership for this task force.

I think that our committee will provide the leadership in the Congress of the United States for dealing with this issue.

In recent years, the United States has experienced more frequent and intense natural disasters attributable to climate change, displacing tens of thousands of people and costing hundreds of billions of dollars in damage.

That is why I strongly support Congressman Green's priority for one-for-one replacement of affordable housing units in his CDBG-DR proposal.

Thank you very much, Chairman Cleaver, for convening this hearing on the need to improve the resiliency of our country's housing infrastructure in the face of climate change.

I have been working across Congresses, now with Members on both sides of the aisle, to reform the National Flood Insurance Program.

I will continue to speak truth to power. And I will continue to be an activist legislator.

I want to tell you my struggle against police abuse started many years ago.

You would think that we would have even Republicans on the most conservative side who would say, this is too much, even though I support the police, and I think that they shouldn`t even be challenged in their work, they know what they`re…

And so, when they take words like confrontation, which certainly confrontation was used in the sit-ins, in the -- for the civil rights legislation, the marches, the prayers. All of that is confrontation.

I am very hopeful and I hope that we are going to get verdict that say guilty, guilty, guilty. And if we don`t, we cannot go away. We got to stay on the street. And we`ve got to get more active. We`ve got to get more confrontational. We`ve…

We’ve got to stay on the street. We’ve got to get more active. We’ve got to get more confrontational. We’ve got to make sure that they know that we mean business.

My struggle against police abuse started many years ago.

It`s not going to be that easy to get this bill passed out of the United States Senate.
