What I really want to say about this bill would probably make me wind up on the prayer list of the church folks back home. This bill is horrendous for America. Most Americans want a job; they want a decent, safe place to live; they want…
I hereby remove my name as cosponsor of H.J. Res. 6. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman's request is accepted. ____________________
I want to thank the majority for those remarks on the schedule. I also want to take a minute to thank the leader, and others over there, for helping pass H.R. 2877, the Behavioral Intervention Guidelines Act. It is a really good bill that…
But, again, I want to go back to it, with the morale of the officers here in the Capitol as low as it is right now, the tremendous stresses that they are under, the staffing problems that they have, wondering whether or not this entire…
Reclaiming my time. I implore the majority to put Mr. Stauber and Mr. Scott's bill onto the floor as soon as possible so that we can reach a bipartisan vote and consensus on this. I just want to make one other observation here, knowing…
Could the gentleman answer one question: Is President Biden wrong? Or is Dr. Monahan wrong? I yield to the gentleman from California.
I will say this before we move on to the next topic. It does appear that many of us are governed by different rules along the way. So let's move on to one final thing. As you know, this has been police reform week. I was happy to see that…
No. My point is that there is so much inconsistency here. You will never, ever get to the point, Madam Speaker, that you will ever be able to get every Member to show some sort of vaccination card without violating the HIPAA privacy…
Reclaiming my time. We, as Americans, should all celebrate Operation Warp Speed and the work done by the administration to be able to do that and to follow through. We greatly appreciate the Biden administration's following up on the…
Reclaiming my time. So the President, the leader of the Democratic socialist movement right now here in America, has said that it is good enough for the White House, yet you are going to defer to the House physician over the President of…
Reclaiming my time. That is in direct contradiction to CDC guidelines. And on top of that, will the gentleman explain how in the world you are going to get that information that every member of this body has been vaccinated without…
Reclaiming my time. Of course, we would like all Americans to be vaccinated. But, again, you will never be able to understand or know how many Members are actually vaccinated unless you require them to give you that information. If you…
No, not yet. I think it is important that this body bring a resolution to the floor supporting the men and women in law enforcement around the Nation, but particularly right here in this Capitol. I will be the first one, along with the…
I rise for the purpose of inquiring to the majority the schedule for the week to come. I yield to the gentleman from California (Mr. Aguilar), my friend and colleague, the vice chair of the Democratic Caucus.
Reclaiming my time. I will wrap this topic up with a couple of observations. Our colleagues across on the other side of the building are certainly following different guidelines than we are here. I think it is important to note that what…
I would like to thank the chairman and the ranking member for this opportunity, and I rise to support H.R. 3539. Every American wants to live in a safe community, and children deserve to be able to go to safe schools. But all too often…
I would like to wish my mother a happy birthday. Happy birthday, mom. I wish I were there to celebrate with you. But instead, I am in D.C., voting on a senseless bill that was designed strictly for political purposes and will put your…
Surely there will be the customary environmental review to understand the impact on the spotted blue tail south Georgia armadillo being run over by all the new mail trucks. This bill is a sham. It is a shame. It is not needed right now. We…
I thank the gentleman from North Carolina (Mr. Walker) for allowing me to do this. I rise tonight to honor the life and legacy of John Lewis. John dedicated his life to equality and justice, and the Nation we are so blessed to live in is…
It seems to me that I voted on a lot more amendments last year than I have this year. We probably did have more closed bills, but we seemed to have a lot more legislative activity. It seemed to be a lot more productive. But anyway, Madam…
I am happy to hear that. But it seems kind of odd that this week, when we were considering the police reform bill, there were no amendment considerations. I believe the majority leader, Madam Speaker, said on the floor that we have…
Reclaiming my time, those words are fine now. But when we talk about having agreement and talk about having those discussions, Madam Speaker, clearly, the committee and this body should be considering it as an entire body. The opportunity…
Oh, Madam Speaker, not only is there an expectation, there is gratitude for the work that the President and the administration have done to get information out, to expand testing, to go out to make sure that the resources were delivered to…
I rise for the purpose of inquiring of the majority leader the schedule for the week to come. I yield to my friend from Maryland (Mr. Hoyer), the majority leader.
Well, I certainly appreciate that, but I was a little disappointed this week, in the fact that I thought we had a chance to make the police reform bill better. It was a genuine effort on both sides of the aisle to have this discussion. But…
