Tom Price

If we don't do it right, shame on us.

I think we ought to encourage that kind of innovation in the market.

We don't want Washington telling us what to do with our investments.

There may be some merit to the American public's concern about the advisability of federal government control.

I rise to oppose this non-stimulus package because it is selfish and irresponsible. It is selfish--because it will burden future generations for years to come with unbelievable debt; trillions of dollars stolen from our children and…

we all commend the President- elect for his vision of hope and of bipartisanship. It was with that same spirit of bipartisanship that the original SCHIP bill was adopted in the mid-1990s when Republicans and Democrats recognized together…

it's a new Congress and, yes, it's a new day. But what we're debating isn't that new. It's, in fact, a recycled campaign promise to a favored special interest, and a sad reminder of the path this majority continues to take this country. As…

As a physician, nothing is more important to me than patients and the ability of doctors to take care of them. One of the reasons that I ran for public office was to work as diligently as I could to get politics out of the clinical exam…

I want to, once again, commend Representative Miller for his resolution. I think it's important in the context of this discussion, however, to make certain that the Nation understands and that our colleagues appreciate that much work has…

And all of those activities that burden our own American oil producers, all of them provide greater incentives for foreign oil producers and increase our reliance on foreign oil. And I appreciate my friend from Indiana talking about the…

But I can't believe that a significant number of folks on the other side don't believe in their heart, and their constituents certainly, that we ought to be able to solve this problem with our own resources and with our own ingenuity and…

Absolutely. Within 5 or 6 minutes they walked by and said well, I'll sign up on that. But our colleagues here are going to be able to look on that petition and see who's interested in voting to increase U.S. oil production to lower gas…

That's an important figure. Over half of the time that the oil companies put a drill down to find oil, they didn't find anything, and this is on that leased land. That's on that leased land.

I appreciate that. And this idea, the idea you came up with is so wonderful because what it's going to allow every Member of this House to see is who signs on the petition.

My folks at home, when I tell them these sorts of things, they shake their head. They say, You gotta be kidding me. And we won't allow our oil companies, American oil producers, to do the same sorts of things in environmentally sensitive…

I go home, as most Members of Congress do, every weekend and talk with constituents and try to get a sense of what their concerns are and make certain that we are representing them responsibly here, and upon my last visits home on the…

I wanted to talk about the amendments that I had offered to this bill that would have provided some accountability to the spending that's incorporated in this bill, but as we have heard, those amendments weren't made in order. So, in…

I hear people say, ``Why on Earth can't people live up to their word? Why can't they do what they said they were going to do when they ran for office?'' And the spending is one of the things that gets them so terribly irritated and so…

I am pleased today to welcome to Washington, DC, a special group of World War II veterans from Georgia's Sixth District. These proud patriots are here for one remarkable day as part of the Honor Flight Program. Thanks to the generosity of…

There's a general sense, Mr. Speaker, that it's this bill or nothing, and that certainly isn't true. In fact, much has been done. As has been talked about, the FHA Secure program has created greater flexibility, helping hundreds of…

I would suggest, Mr. Speaker, that these threats do no favors to the American taxpayers across our country. The chairman is ensuring that we will get full and active participation in this program, populated by the riskiest of loans with…

the American people are fair people. And they expect their representatives to remain cognizant of and reflect that fairness in all actions. This House has moved from fairness, from deliberation and from proper recognition that would allow…

I'm so pleased to rise today to congratulate the State of Israel on its 60th anniversary as an independent and sovereign Nation. Our friends have realized this historic milestone in the face of innumerable challenges to their very…

I note as I come to the well here that it's now 2:49 p.m. on a Thursday afternoon, a time when across this Nation the folks who worked the day shift are getting ready to complete their work; the folks who are working the afternoon or…

I'm pleased to rise today in celebration of World Hemophilia Day in which we recognize the serious challenges of those worldwide who suffer from hemophilia, a day in which we raise awareness to fight for a cure. Hemophilia is a rare…
