As you are probably aware, I represent a very large Hispanic community, and so I have heard from some of my constituents who have a few concerns.

There is not a week that goes by that this issue doesn't come before us in one way or another.

I represent probably ground zero, if there is one, when it comes to global warming.

I think it is important.

Although the administration's commitment to Everglades restoration has been strong, I worry that some of the larger projects...have been indefinitely delayed.

I'd first like to say how much I've enjoyed working with you over the past year.

It is still my sincere hope that we can get to comprehensive immigration.

The time has come to get immigration reform. We should focus on that.

We can keep looking to the past, and there will not be a solution.

It is time we stopped pretending to fix our broken immigration system. We are sitting here rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

Justice delayed is justice denied, and it is really incredible to me to think that we would look at our third co-equal branch of government as a step-child.
