I led talking about therapeutics as it relates to COVID. I am very fortunate on the Rules Committee, as is Mr. Morelle, to be able to serve with a gentleman who spent his lifetime in the service of others through medicine, Dr. Burgess. Dr…
I believe that we are both, irrespective of who leads the Congress, irrespective of who leads the White House, we are all disadvantaged as Americans when Congress becomes feckless in its attempts to do oversight over the executive branch.
Let's not eliminate the motion to recommit to silence the minority. Let's change the motion to recommit to empower legislative discussion.
The politics of division that we play have dangerous consequences in many ways.
I think it is absolutely critical that we are able to compel the executive branch to comply with congressional subpoenas.
These measures before us today are critically important. Mr. Speaker, I yield 4 minutes to the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Rutherford), a gentleman who can speak to these critically important issues with not just his words, but with a…
I would like to share with my friend, the chairman, that I have no further speakers remaining, and I am prepared to close when he is. Mr. McGOVERN. Madam Speaker, I am prepared to close. {time} 1130
Again, if we defeat the previous question, we will bring much-needed legislation to the floor. Madam Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Minnesota (Mr. Stauber), a rising star here in the Republican Conference, to talk about…
I say to my friend from Pennsylvania, I want to solve every single one of those problems that she just laid out. Those are absolutely bipartisan concerns. This bill solves none of them. Madam Speaker, I yield 4 minutes to the gentlewoman…
I very much appreciate the time tonight to honor one of Georgia's favorite sons. Madam Speaker, I yield to the gentlewoman from Illinois (Ms. Schakowsky).
While I don't always agree with what my friend from Maryland has to say, I do agree with my friend from Florida about his scholarly expertise. We don't talk about the Ninth and Tenth Amendments enough down here on the floor of the House. I…
I would say to my friend from Florida, I don't believe we have any further speakers coming to the floor, so I will reserve the balance of my time and wait to close.
If we defeat the previous question, I will amend the rule to provide for consideration of H. Res. 1023, a resolution by Mr. Steube. Madam Speaker, I yield 5 minutes to the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Jordan), the ranking member and one of the…
If we defeat the previous question, we will offer an amendment to the rule that will make in order a bipartisan resolution, an amendment to deal with fentanyl and its listing on schedule I. Madam Speaker, I yield 4 minutes to the gentleman…
I will close by saying we may disagree about, again, the breadth of the overall legislation, but as it comes to this individual line-item, we are talking primarily about accidental releases of a very important firefighting foam but one…
I thank the gentleman for his question. Absolutely not. What the amendment does is it has language, Madam Chair, that inserts the words ``or contact with'' to make that point that firefighters are not using the foam; they are responding…
May I ask how much time I have remaining. The Acting CHAIR (Ms. Jackson Lee). The gentleman from Georgia has 2\1/2\ minutes remaining.
To suggest that the rule has been satisfied, as the chairman's letter does, I think creates a very dangerous precedent...
The grand jury room is not intended to provide fairness to any defendant. It is intended to indict.
I rarely find myself in disagreement with my good friend from Florida. In fact, more often than not, I find myself educated by him. But I have got to disagree with him today because this is all about process.
