I also want to thank Speaker Paul Ryan, who was very helpful to us in getting this moving.

H.R. 6020 will set a standard of support that breaks the cycle of 'unfulfilled' promise to many generations of students.

How in the world could you in good conscience set up these fraudulent accounts? What was going through your mind when you were doing this?

It's important for us to know how many in Georgia had fraudulent accounts set up in their name without their consent.

You took advantage of unsuspecting loyal customers. You should be downright ashamed of yourself.

The example that you set is just absolutely terrible.

I want to commend my colleague, Mr. Keith Ellison from Minnesota, for the excellent work he is doing on 4172, which I support.

we have to tackle this issue of getting a new generation of beginning farmers out there.

we have a national security crisis right in this country, and that is the average age of our farmers now at 60 years of age.
