Ted Deutch: “I would like to thank you for the truly remarkable job that you have done as Secretary of State.”

It is a mystery to me why the Republican leadership here continues to refuse to permit a vote on Congressman Kathy Manning's H.R. 7921.

We cannot wait until it's all personal to us. It's time for us to pass the many bipartisan bills introduced this Congress that will protect the health and well-being of the American people.

It goes far deeper than that. I think it is appalling that we think we have to call a committee hearing to address something that is so fundamental in the raising of our children.

The law we need to pass, if you are a mom and dad, it is your responsibility.
