This Administration's bullying and intimidation must stop.

I think there's some hypocrisy here.

Transparency from executive agencies is necessary to ensure Congress' ability to carry out our oversight and legislative responsibilities effectively.

I thank my colleague from Louisiana for working with us on combining two really good amendments to this. Mr. Chairman, we live in an era right now of vast growth of our government. Those that are bearing the burden of this growth and this…

According to the Constitution, Article I, section 4, who's responsible for elections, states or the federal government?

I would take the same stance if the tides were turned and it was the government trying to suppress the views that there is climate change when the government was assessing that there is not.

I agree this is chilling, and what the chilling effect of this is, the government using the power and the strength of law to suppress a dissenting view regardless of whether you agree with it or not.

I thank the gentleman from the great State of Texas for yielding. Mr. Chair, we are at a time when the American people are forced to comply with crushing regulations that stifle business growth and strip Americans of their livelihood. At…

On rollcall No. 441, I was unavoidably detained outside the Chamber. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea.''

the American people rely upon this government for their safety and security, from homeland security to even the safety and security of their financial assets through the FDIC.

We do not at this time. Ms. McCOLLUM. That answers part of my question, because even if he was to be successful with his amendment in the way the amendments are going--I am kind of predicting that he might be on a voice vote--it would…

Once again, as we have seen with the agencies, there is a lot of overreach. Quite often, if you give them an inch, they take a mile. I think it is imperative that we be proactive in this issue to ensure that we protect an industry that has…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds made…

Under the Clean Air Act, Congress directed the EPA to regulate ``any air pollutant from any class or classes of new motor vehicles or new motor vehicle engines, which may be reasonably anticipated to endanger public health or welfare.''…

I urge my colleagues to join us in this bipartisan effort to ensure the safety and security of many--not just employees, but citizens and visitors to this important facility, and I urge them to support this bill. I yield back the balance…

Terrorism is no longer just a national issue as we deemed it after 9/11. The attacks of terrorism are affecting our local communities, and we must address those that are perpetrating these attacks, not just simply go after the tools that…

I thank my colleague, Mr. David Scott, for coordinating this tribute to Jocelyn Dorsey. I am honored to recognize Jocelyn Dorsey, who is being inducted into the Georgia Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame, for her steadfast commitment…

I thank the gentleman for yielding his time. Mr. Speaker, I chair the Oversight Subcommittee on the Science, Space, and Technology Committee, and my subcommittee has held numerous hearings on the ever-evolving threat of cyber intrusions. I…

I urge my colleagues to support this strong bipartisan measure. I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. MacArthur). The question is on the motion offered by the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Loudermilk) that the…

I am pleased to sponsor H.R. 5049, the NSF Major Research Facility Reform Act of 2016, to improve the management and oversight of major multi-user research facilities that are funded by the National Science Foundation and to ensure that…

But they had access to sensitive information even though they were not 'computer literate'?

it's very clean that the Clean Power Plan will devastate the coal industry.

we have had less than transparency out of the Agency.

Part of my concern is, if we shut down some of the fusion centers or if we take away enough of the funds to where they are ineffective, the impact that that is going to have on local law enforcement, which we are growing to a point where…

Difficult times. We are looking at a growing debt of nearly $20 trillion, so we know that we have to address that.
