The Public Record
once again this misguided Democrat majority is looking to set a record. But like their tally for broken promises and historic tax increases, this isn't a record of which anyone should be proud. No, Madam Speaker, this Democrat leadership…
I want to thank the American College of Pathology and all of the pathologists across the Nation who are working day in and day out to make certain that they provide quality care for the patients for whom they are charged. Madam Speaker, I…
And in my district, the Sixth District of Georgia, I get constant questions about national security: What is Congress doing to make certain that our Nation is safe? And that's important because, Mr. Speaker, today is the 48th day, the 48th…
we are now 27 days, 27 days into a unilateral disarmament. We are not doing our job in the House of Representatives. We are not fulfilling our oath, and we are not protecting the American people. This brings discredit on the House of…
we are now 25 days into a unilateral disarmament, a disarmament that doesn't make any sense to our constituents in each and every district across this Nation. The Senate voted 68-29, 68-29.
Thank you for bringing greater clarity to that, Mr. Hoekstra. And before you joined us, I read and inserted into the Record a letter from 25 State attorneys general talking about the importance of FISA, a bipartisan group of individuals…
Without a doubt. And our constituents understand and appreciate that. The folks that we're up against in this battle, the individuals who wish to do us harm, are very smart people, very smart people. And we have an open society. When we…
What occurs on the floor of this House is consequential. Who is to say that there wouldn't have been information that would have been gained, had we had this bill in place, that would have allowed us to know that those activities were…
It's affecting the information that they're able to get. But it's communication from a foreign individual on foreign soil to another foreign individual on foreign soil. This is not between an American individual on American soil to another…
Today, we dealt with seven resolutions, seven suspensions, seven bills that I think every person voted for completely, entirely. I don't mean to belittle these resolutions, five of them were to name post offices, United States Post…
when I go home and I talk to my constituents, they understand and appreciate that it is the primary responsibility of Congress to protect our Nation. All Americans believe we should be able to determine what terrorists are saying to…
I appreciate that. But our side looks at the world and sees Hezbollah challenging Israel to open war. We look at the world and we see al Qaeda threatening to assassinate the Filipino President. We look at the world in, I believe, realistic…
Reclaiming my time and continuing to reserve the right to object, the gentleman certainly knows that this has been extended from August until earlier this month. And then we agreed to a 14-day extension, until this evening. We believe, as…
the American people mostly don't pay a whole lot of attention to what goes on here on the floor, and it's probably better, but hopefully they're paying attention now because it's a sad day, and they need to take note. Mr. Speaker, I would…
I hadn't planned on coming down here tonight, but this is a sad and distressing day for this House of Representatives. Mr. Speaker, I suspect you know, some may not, but there are companies in America that are patriotic and they want to…
I want to commend the author of what I think is an appropriate amendment of loan forgiveness. As an orthopedic surgeon, I worked closely with physical therapists, and they are integral to the healing process in so many areas. Another group…
Regrettably, Madam Speaker, the New Year didn't bring any new ideas or new strategy on the part of our majority here. Less than 1 week into this new session, it remains all politics all the time. And you don't have to believe me. Just…
I rise today to honor and to congratulate Mayor Cecil Pruett of Canton, Georgia, on a tremendous career and a well-deserved retirement. A true public servant and outstanding leader, Mayor Pruett will be retiring this month after 12 years…
have you seen the news? Democrat inaction on the alternative minimum tax is leading to a delay of tax refunds for millions of hardworking Americans. The carelessness of this new majority is poised again to strike the American people, this…
It used to be that there were just some things you simply didn't play partisan games with: Our military, our kids, and especially our veterans. But not in this Congress. In this House of politics, no matter is safe from political posturing…
I try to bring posters, because when I look at something like this it really drives the issue home and brings it much more clear to me. But this is what you have mentioned that is so true, and the bill that was passed, as you said, would…
I tell you, Mr. Speaker, the war on the middle class is being fully engaged by this majority party when you think about a $3.5 trillion tax increase. Congressman Rangel, again, you have to honor him and commend him for his candor and his…
Thanks so very much for joining us tonight, and for really shedding the truth on issues as they relate to taxes. You are so right about the spending. That is what we have seen in this Congress, Mr. Speaker, is bill after bill after bill…
it is indeed a great privilege and honor to come back to the floor of the House and present some alternative views, some views that I hope are more grounded in truth as this is another edition of the Official Truth Squad. We've heard some…
It's a bill that would reauthorize SCHIP. It would make certain that we had premium assistance or support for those folks in low to middle-income families so that they could make certain that they could own their own personal private…
Politicians like Tom Price
