I thank the gentleman for yielding. Mr. Speaker, I am grateful for coming in contact with a lot of people during my lifetime, and Richard Salick is certainly one of them. In fact, I think so much of Rich and his selfless giving to others…
I have an amendment at the desk. The CHAIR. The Clerk will report the amendment. The Clerk read as follows: Page 4, line 21, after the first dollar amount, insert ``(increased by $1,000,000)''. Page 10, line 7, after the dollar amount…
I would like to thank Chairman Crenshaw for his help on this amendment and for his support on this issue of critical importance to the Florida financial industry. My amendment transfers $1 million from the Internal Revenue Service…
I mean that is the way it seems sometimes. That is the way a lot of the taxpayers feel at home.
People died because of it. People went broke. People are living in poverty now instead of a comfortable retirement because about 50 people in that agency didn't do their job.
We can't expect anybody to be perfect. But we are talking about matters of national security now and we need to be as close to perfect as we can possibly be.
I thank the chairman for yielding. Harmful algal blooms and hypoxia events occur throughout the United States. They are damaging to water bodies, and are harmful to plant and animal life. They also cost local communities millions of…

They don't buy insurance to increase risk, and if you start stealing from Peter to pay Paul, what you may have is instead of one guy going out of business, you get two, and I don't know how that is better for anybody.
Thank you for today's hearing on legislation that is very important to the insurance industry...
I think you are a good man, you are well qualified for the job, and you have good intentions.
Has NIH, NIMH, or NIH funded studies looking at the use of vitamin B6 in children with autism?
I thank the gentleman from Michigan for yielding. Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to be joined here today by my colleague, Resident Commissioner Pierluisi, whom you just heard from, in support of our bill, H.R. 1726, to award the Congressional…
Some folks, and I am one of them, believe that the government and the scientific community has made a strategic error by mostly focusing on genetics-only research.
I think it would be great if the government, who is here to do good things for people, would take that off the table.
How many of the therapies currently that are typically used by the autism community have been evaluated by NIH research grants?
Absolutely. If it's a transparent, bona fide study, I think no matter where people fall on the issue, what side, they would be relieved at a credible, transparent conclusion.
It seems NIH is clinging to outdated paradigms, and IACC leadership for some reason or reasons has obstructed progress.
the government closest to the people is usually the best, the most responsive, the most efficient, the most effective, the most cost-effective, and certainly the most accessible, and I think that goes for regulators, too.
In March of 2012, then-IRS Commissioner Douglas Shulman assured Congress: ``there is no targeting of conservative groups.'' Yet, I continued to hear stories from constituents telling me a different story. On April 23, 2012, I joined with…
All space launches are matters of national security, not just perceived in the traditional manner that we look at national security, but as economic national security.
I appreciate the work you do in crafting the National Defense Authorization Act.
