Who made that decision, and what was the rationale for that?

It is the Democrats who are fighting to save lives during this pandemic.

It is actually Republicans and Members like him who are trampling on the Rule of law and trying to overturn the will of the people.

To all my colleagues in the committee, it has been the greatest honor to serve with all of you, even in the most contentious times, and I truly will carry these experiences with me.

The status quo has to change.

That is probably one of the stupidest things that I have heard since being in Washington, DC.

My community is not going to be an afterthought. We are not going to be flood control for U.S. sugar or anybody else.

It is definitely another weapon for us to help fight against the effects of climate change.

Everglades Restoration is the largest ecosystem restoration project in the world, and I cannot overstate its importance to South Florida.

The health of our Everglades really provides us with clean drinking water.

I have put Everglades restoration as the top priority.

I think we have to make it clear that this is not--these essential workers are not taking jobs away from our American workers that are here, that we also have to provide opportunities for them. It's not an either/or question. We can do…

These immigrants are people that are working right now to save lives. They're keeping our Nation operating during a pandemic.

I think immigrants have been living here for tens of years, for decades, have been waiting for a legal path to citizenship, including our Dreamers.

We actually passed the Heroes Act, including that rent and mortgage relief to prevent evictions and the Senate Republicans came back without including those provisions which just seems cruel

The potential for an eviction wave in a State with a severe lack of affordable housing available as a hurricane approaches is devastating and could be catastrophic

You would go against your own Department of Justice policy, Mr. Barr?

They are letting Americans die needlessly--because of political reasons.

I am not going to lie to my constituents.

You, Mr. Barr, and President Trump working together are letting my constituents down.

Let me just go now to one of the most important topics facing our Nation right now: Healthcare.

Many of my constituents that I represent in Florida fled to America from countries that use deadly force to stifle speech.

Most of the protests have been peaceful, Attorney General Barr. You know that.

How do you restore the confidence of my constituents in the values of this country when every night on television, they are seeing these images of violence used against the peaceful protesters?
