It would be devastating to my business.

This is absolutely cruel, it is unacceptable, and it has to stop.

I vehemently defend Americans' right to assemble, to free speech, and to protest, and I always will.

Antisemitism is appalling and has no place in our society.

I am very concerned, however, with your Department's proposal to expand Federal control over successful CTE programs.

I have co-chaired the bipartisan Career and Technical Education Caucus for more than a decade.

15 million jobs have been created under President Biden; more Americans have health insurance than ever before; Democrats expanded Child Tax Credit, cut child poverty by over 40 percent and benefitted over 35 million families.

Every time the Republican message has been the same: slash taxes for rich people, and the benefits trickle down to everyday Americans.

Democrats in this committee passed the enhanced Child Tax Credit in the American Rescue Plan. That credit lifted millions of children out of poverty.

These families should not have their assets, which are necessary to do their jobs and feed our Nation counted against them.

The one that really worries me is the Congressional Review Act. It has the potential to completely undermine the franchise business model.

Their goal is an admirable one: providing stability to the international tax system.

The ESA has become a one-size-fits-all approach to species management.

I am here today to express Delta's strong support for the HEN ACT and to thank Congresswoman Fischbach, Congressman LaMalfa, and Congressman Thompson for their leadership on this critical piece of legislation.

My legislation builds upon the section 4(d) rules and gives the agencies authority to follow the same process for species that are listed as endangered under the ESA.

I agree with my Democratic colleagues that the child tax credit portion of this bill should be stronger. Be that as it may, in a divided government, you don't always get exactly what you want, and this bill is an improvement over the…

I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. Like the gentlewoman, I spent my entire weekend in my district, and not one person came to me asking me to change the law on chocolate milk. We have important work to do, Mr. Speaker, and I rise in…

I urge my colleagues to oppose the previous question so we can pass the Bipartisan Background Checks Act, save lives, and help ensure that more American families never have to suffer the loss of a loved one.

It seems that perhaps Harvard's commitment to free speech is pretty selective.

I would expect that you would not agree with that.
