I am really intrigued with this issue of the contracting away of one's, or transferability as you call it, of one's likeness and voice.
The author of this legislation and I don't agree on much. We fight like cats and dogs, with me being the dog, but on this, we agree. Mr. Speaker, I strongly urge my colleagues to support this bipartisan legislation, and I yield back the…
I thank the gentlewoman for her hospitality while we were in Texas for this funeral. Today, I rise to honor the extraordinary legacy of Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson, a trailblazer, a public servant, and a tireless advocate for her…

For the party that eschews regulations, we now have more regulations being proposed, and these regulations are unnecessary in this case. Again, it is up to the particular applicant to schedule the test for themselves. If they delay in…
