In a nutshell, here is the Republican and the President's case. They want you to believe that if you cut corporate taxes, if you cut taxes on the investor class, that this is going to raise wages. That is the President's argument. Here is…

I would like to read very briefly from that letter from the Virginia Military Institute, which recognized General Sun for his leadership in the China-Burma-India theater, and recognize that his story has inspired many other Virginia…

And we are excited about the potential of this new legislation.

I thank Ranking Member Walz. I want to commend Ranking Member Walz and Chairman Roe for this extraordinary piece of legislation that invests in the education of our veterans. I also am pleased that you included Majority Leader McCarthy's…

I thank the gentleman, and I thank his wife, Lisa McGovern, for being a great support to my wife. I rise today in opposition to this rule. It is not just because I am opposed to our policy of refueling planes into Yemen, refueling Saudi…

I have an amendment at the desk. The CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 6, line 4, after ``project,'' insert ``including an analysis of the project's effect on eligible recipients…

I thank Congressman Raskin. It is a real honor to be able to co-chair this Special Order hour with the gentleman. The gentleman is one of the most brilliant Members of our body on constitutional issues and constitutional law, really…

Maybe it is from the vantage point of the district I represent... I am less concerned about our country's long-term innovation and economic growth, and more concerned about issues of income inequality and income disparity.

Thank you, Congressman Raskin, and thank you for your leadership with the Progressive Caucus and in articulating a positive vision of what the American people need with a budget. I want to address the issue of manufacturing because this…

I thank the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Lee) for her vision in making sure Congress votes on matters of war and peace. When we were attacked, after 9/11, I, like many Americans, supported strikes on the people who attacked us. But no…

I rise out of a concern of this administration's policies to North Korea. I urge the administration to look at recent history. From 1994 to 2002, North Korea was not developing plutonium and there was no threat of medium- or long-range…

I thank Mr. Polis for yielding and for your leadership on this issue. This resolution would overturn rules that protect a consumer's privacy, and they would be a handout to internet service providers: Comcast, Verizon, AT&T. Now, as it is…

I thank the gentleman for his leadership and for yielding me the time. When the President campaigned, he said he wanted more benefits, more coverage, and lower premiums. Since he got to the White House, he said, well, health care is…

I thank Congressman Gallagher for his bipartisan leadership on the term limits initiative, and my friend General Bergman for his leadership on this issue. I don't think term limits are a partisan issue. The Economist had an article that…

I thank the gentleman from Massachusetts for yielding time. The issue before us is far more basic than one's view on the Affordable Care Act. I recognize that there is a philosophical difference about the Affordable Care Act: on our side…

I have. I appreciate the Congressman's leadership on this. Net neutrality, as the gentleman knows, is a very simple idea. That means that everyone should have equal access to the internet; that you shouldn't get to pay for faster service…

I thank Representative Garamendi for his leadership in the State of California and the country. I rise today to voice my strong objection and disapproval for FCC Chairman Ajit Pai's decision to roll back a program that would provide…

If I can make one more comment. Everyone says they are not for regulation. That is easy. Every time I get on an airplane, I am very thankful that we have some regulations. Regulations can't just be eliminated with a hatchet, like this…

I thank Congressman Garamendi for his leadership and showing what is really happening with the scale-back of all these regulations.

You would think we would want a democracy where every citizen has equal access to these tools. Well, who doesn't want that? Some of these big companies that have concentrated economic power and have an interest in making money and not for…

I want to say what an honor it is to be on this Committee with Chairman Thornberry and Ranking Member Smith and their leadership. When I joined, I was told this was one of the only bipartisan committees in the House. While we had a…

I have the great privilege and honor of representing Silicon Valley in the United States Congress. We are living through revolutionary times. If 100 years ago we had the industrial revolution, today we have the software revolution, and the…

I am the son of immigrants, born in Philadelphia as the Nation celebrated our bicentennial. I ran for Congress because we have lost sight of our founding ideals. In Federalist 10, James Madison warned that factions, with their own special…

There doesn't appear to be any explicit limit on the hourly rate that monitors might get paid.
