Political Quotes

On the recordDecember 4, 2024
I believe both bills I mentioned here have a zero score. Both are overwhelmingly supported by our veterans service organizations, including the VFW, Vietnam Veterans of America, The American Legion, Disabled American Veterans, U.S. VETS, and Black Veterans Empowerment Council. We have two bills. Let's pass one today. Let's persuade leadership to give us a few more minutes of floor time so we can pass the other bill next week. We will get them both over to the Senate. Mr. Speaker, I look forward to calling Senator Scott and Senator Brown to say these bills deserve to be fast-tracked and passed through the Senate right away. Ms. De La CRUZ. Mr. Speaker, I have no more speakers and am prepared to close. Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.

I want to focus on the 40 percent of this bill that gets little or no attention. It provides $9.1 billion in humanitarian aid, and that aid is un-earmarked. So at a hearing last week, I got the administration to go on record as to where…
