Mr. Rose, I believe, said that there are constituents who say: Don't stop my overdraft. However, did they say: Charge me exorbitant amounts for overdraft? I don't think so. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentlewoman from Michigan…
It is interesting that my friend, Chairman Hill, raised process concerns over the CFPB, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, rule that would include following the Administrative Procedure Act. Mr. Speaker, really? This doesn't make good…
Democrats are no on this budget. It is outrageous that you all have the audacity to come here with this budget that harms so many Americans and ask us to support billionaires.
I strongly oppose the Republican budget rip-off. I hear from constituents every day about the high cost of living. Under the Trump administration, healthcare costs are rising, and putting food on the table is getting harder as egg prices…
Given recent reporting, we do not doubt that the approach Musk has taken at other agencies will soon come knocking at the SEC's door.
Had I been present, I would have voted NAY on Roll Call No. 38. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the resolution. The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that the ayes appeared to have it. Recorded Vote Mr…
The CFPB has ordered institutions like Navy Credit Federal Union, Regions Bank, and Atlantic Union to refund millions of dollars to customers who've been harmed by the bank's illegal surprise overdraft fees.
Here is the richest man in the world bragging about eliminating an agency that has delivered $21 billion back to working-class families since its inception.
Musk's takeover of the CFPB is a five-alarm crisis and a frightening violation of millions of Americans' data privacy.
I have no further speakers, and I am prepared to close if the gentleman from North Carolina has no further speakers. Mr. McHENRY. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time for the purposes of closing. Mr. Speaker, I have no…
I thank Chairman McHenry for his generosity. I thank the gentleman for his support. This is one of the last actions my colleague may be taking prior to the closing of this session, and I want the gentleman to know we are very appreciative…
At a time when our Nation faces an unprecedented affordable housing and homelessness crisis, which House Republicans have done nothing to address over the last 2 years, it is unthinkable to consider reducing support for the very…
In recent months there has been a lot of rhetoric around Project 2025, but many Americans still don't understand its very dangerous implications. Donald Trump's Project 2025 is a well- funded Presidential transition plan which would…
On that I demand the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays were ordered. The SPEAKER pro tempore. This will be a 5-minute vote. The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 215, nays 203, answered ``present'' 1, not voting 12…
I also point out that this bill is opposed by over 40 organizations and investor advocates. I include in the Record the letter these groups signed indicating their opposition to H.R. 4790. September 17, 2024. Re Opposition to anti-ESG…
As I laid out in my opening remarks, this bill confusingly duplicates and conflicts with existing law. To be clear, this bill would add new language rather than amending the existing language that is already in law. Having two conflicting…
I want to highlight just how rushed the process for this bill has been. I remind my colleagues that this bill was only introduced 5 days ago, on Friday of last week. The notice of the Rules Committee hearing for this bill went out the same…
My colleague across the aisle has pointed out that the language that we passed into law as part of the Appropriations Act just 6 months ago may expire along with the appropriations. While that may be the case, it is simply false to claim…
Several groups have come out in opposition to this bill over concerns of racial discrimination and profiling, including the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus, the National Iranian American Council, the Stop AAPI Hate, the Asian…
On that I demand the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays were ordered. The SPEAKER pro tempore. This is a 5-minute vote. The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 269, nays 149, not voting 12, as follows: [Roll No. 415]…
And we will be able to say loudly and proudly, you're damn right it is.
And when the dust settles in November and Americans of all stripes have elected her their president, I know she'll be thinking about Fannie Lou who asked happen to know, is one of Kamala's heroes.
