I don't think anyone in America, a reasonable person, thinks we should have requirements for immigrants to take math and science tests.
I think the American public would love to have a math and science requirement for Members of Congress.
This bill is historic because it buries the myth that the cause of childhood poverty is a lack of character, or a lack of hard work, or a lack of love. The bill affirms the simple truth that the cause of poverty is a lack of income to…
It is unconscionable that we have the situation that we do where we have 5 million to 6 million Americans, by the way, who gets tips or making lists of $5 an hour.
I would add it happened before in 2011. They had the same exact situation with the winter and there were recommendations to weatherize the grid. What we need to know is why those recommendations were disregarded.
The subcommittee is concerned that the loss of electric reliability and the resulting human suffering, deaths and economic costs will happen again unless ERCOT and the state of Texas confront the predicted increase in extreme weather…
We have an obligation as the United States to make sure that this doesn`t happen to anyone -- Texans or Californians or people in any state. And this was so preventable because it just required basic infrastructure investment.
We cannot stand up for congressional authorization before military strikes only when there is a Republican President. The administration should have sought congressional authorization here.
There is no provision in the Constitution that says that the Senate parliamentarian has any power.
One of the most outrageous aspects of this crisis is politicians getting up there and lying to the American people that somehow this was caused by renewable energy when the facts are so obvious that the failure was actually of the natural…
I'm a Member of Congress for the United States and the subcommittee I chair on the environment. The oversight committee has jurisdiction over the United States. This is our responsibility.
Once the dust settles here, I also plan to hold a hearing with the leaders responsible for this total meltdown.
I think he`s going to radically reset relations with all of them. He`s going to make it clear to the Saudis that the offensive war in Yemen is going to end and that their tactics of human rights abuses are not going to be tolerated.
An American president is saying we`re going to end this war and not provide intelligence support to the Saudis, not provide any support for the Saudi bombing campaign.
Hasn't it made us less secure as a country because of it diverting marshals' resources away from things that were critical?
I am voting to impeach because, as Lincoln said, no grievance is a fit object of redress by mob law. But we must recognize that our hard work begins when we address the real grievances and despair in left-behind communities. To be worthy…
If you love this country, if you love America, you should be willing to tell Americans that they shouldn't be paying more than the French and the Germans and Europeans.
Can you make a commitment to the American people today that no American should pay more than people in Europe are paying for Enbrel?
But if it will restore people's faith in a democracy and avoid a polarized election, I would think...
Why should we have a different standard for the Postal Service? Why do you have to go make a profit instead of just serving the American people?
Actually, it was from 1840 to 1970, we funded the Postal Service. We didn't require them to make a profit because we thought people should in rural America and other places and our veterans should serve.
You understand that there are millions of people in America who have the opposite view, who are concerned that this may slow down the delivery of mail.
