Make no mistake, it will be the American people picking up the tab for the wall, not Mexico, as the President promised.

I am proud to be a woman and a leader in this country.

He would poison the public mind. He would challenge each of the races, he would say you can't seat these people.

I think sometimes if you just read the newspaper, you think, well, this is a fight among political leaders and the government shuts down.

He lied to Congress. If anybody else did that, it would be considered a crime. Nobody is above the law, not the president of the United States and not the attorney general.

The attorney general of the United States of America was not telling the truth to the Congress of the United States. That's a crime.

Congress must lead in addressing the climate crisis.

Democrats should not be focusing, you know, everything on these investigations and need to be talking about health care, and infrastructure, and the economy, and all of the things that did well for them in 2018.

I think that the Mueller report was clear. The president is not exonerated.

Mr. Barr's public record of bias against the special counsel's inquiry, he is not a neutral observer and is not in a position to make objective determinations about the report.

Let us not forget that our diversity is our strength.

I thank our colleagues, Chairman DeFazio, Chairman Scott, and Chairwoman Bustos for their kind words. Again, I want to express thanks and gratitude for the patience, love, and support of Danny's wife, Anne, and their daughters, Catherine…

I am pleased to yield to the gentleman from Virginia (Mr. Scott) to close for us, the chairman of the Education and Labor Committee.

I am pleased to yield to the gentleman from Louisiana (Mr. Scalise), the distinguished Republican whip of the House.

We must ensure that everyone has access to quality education.

Michael Cohen will come before the Oversight and House Intelligence Committees next week. Congress has an independent duty under the Constitution to conduct oversight of the Executive Branch, and any efforts to intimidate family members or…

If the president can declare an emergency on something that he has created as an emergency, an illusion that he wants to convey, just think of what a president with different values can present to the American people. You want to talk…

I think a deal could be reached by this Friday, a week before the deadline, as long as the White House steers clear of the negotiations.

The session will come to order.

The House will be in order.

The House speaker told me and a few others that she has made clear to her members, there are going to be a lot of them, a lot more, very boisterous, very passionate, that they should understand the rules of the House.

He is setting up another shutdown if, in fact, the president delivers a much more fiery speech than we had been led to believe.

The government needs to be reopened first before we do the State of the Union.
