But the president, again, stormed out. I think first pound the table, walk out the door. What? Next time, have the TV cameras in there while I have my say. That didn't work for him either. And now this time, another temper tantrum. Again…

I am pleased to rise to join our distinguished Republican leader, Mr. McCarthy, to honor the dedicated, distinguished service of an outstanding public servant, United States Capitol Police Chief Matthew Verderosa. Madam Chair, throughout…
The President would squander $8.6 billion in taxpayers' money on a wall that would do nothing to address the current situation on the border.
It is past time to implement a strategy of common-sense solutions to address the humanitarian crisis at the border while ensuring security and upholding our values.
The surge in families at our borders does not excuse inhumane treatment or relieve us of an obligation to treat people with basic human decency.
Unfortunately, rather than engaging with Congress to address the humanitarian crisis and implement sound border policy, the White House only continues to make matters worse.
Make no mistake, it will be the American people picking up the tab for the wall, not Mexico, as the President promised.

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 would poison the public mind. He would challenge each of the races, he would say you can't seat these people.
I thank the gentleman for yielding, and I commend him for his leadership. This issue of infrastructure resiliency is so important. We are now discussing doing major infrastructure legislation to rebuild America in a way that is making it…
I rise with great sadness to mark the passing of a leader of exceptional courage and firm principles, our colleague and dear friend, Congresswoman Ellen Tauscher. The presence of so many members from our California delegation is a…
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.
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.
I thank the gentleman for yielding, Mr. Chairman, and I commend him for his extraordinary leadership on this very important subject. To young people in our country and to every person in our country from sea to shining sea and to the…
Woman, I thank the gentlewoman for her leadership in presenting the important amendment to the Violence Against Women Act. I thank the distinguished chairman of the committee for his leadership in bringing this VAWA reauthorization to the…
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.
