The Inflation Reduction Act responded to these findings by requiring for most drugs in Medicare Part D that drug companies pay the government any price increase above inflation.

I am proud that Democrats passed the Inflation Reduction Act last year, which will cap out-of-pocket costs for seniors covered by Medicare Part D at $2,000 per year.

So, it is a perfect example when we stop Big Pharma greed, we can actually do really important things for our seniors and our disabled families.

I have introduced the Postal Service Security Camera Act, which would require that, subject to appropriations, the public service install security cameras at each postal facility to protect Postal Service employees, customers, and property.

I am proud of the bipartisan work done by the 117th Congress to move the United States toward a more sustainable future.

Unlike my Republican friends, Democrats are working to ensure the United States is taking urgent action to combat climate change.

Thirty-seven states have been admitted to the Union since the adoption of the Constitution. All have been admitted by simple legislation.

You rightly point out that a simple legislation approved by this Congress could make us a state, just like 37 other states that have been admitted to this great Union.

Our committee has already passed several pieces of legislation to address the supply chain challenges caused by the pandemic.

It is hard to fathom where our country would be without the trucking workforce.

We understand the challenges that your committee faces to streamline the freight delivery model in this country.

The Autonomous Vehicle Industry Association (``AVIA'') writes to thank you for holding the May 10th hearing entitled Freight Forward: Overcoming Supply Chain Challenges to Deliver for America.

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted global supply chains and highlighted longstanding challenges facing the trucking industry.

The solution resides in a simple technical correction to this section that provides clarity and assurance...

Finally, safety is our highest priority--safety for truckdrivers, and safety for everyone who shares the road with them.

Trucks move 73 percent of all domestic freight by value, totaling 12.6 billion tons of freight in 2020.

Driver compensation is also at the heart of our discussions here today. Better wages will help the industry attract and retain its workers.

I have long supported strong entry-level driver training standards so that we ensure truckers are fully prepared to safely operate their vehicles and deliver their freight.

The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act made major investments in our freight network.

Supporting our workers through family-wage jobs, better working conditions, predictable and safe parking places, and lifesaving safety equipment ensures how freight moves.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

I strongly oppose this profoundly undemocratic, paternalistic resolution. The House of Representatives, in which the nearly 700,000 District of Columbia residents have no voting representation, is attempting to nullify legislation enacted…

I thank my friend for yielding, and I would like to respond to something that was said on the other side of the aisle. Both public- and private-sector employers across the country have had difficulty recruiting and retaining employees in…

As you may know, Black Americans account for just 6.2 percent of the aviation workforce and 2.6 percent of pilots and flight engineers.
