The WHO, the Department of Defense, HHS, and the public health agency in Canada have called this vaccine one of the most advanced in the world.

The administration needs to look at all options available to keep our families safe, and they need to move quickly and responsibly.

Our number one priority in combating this disease must be the protection of Americans.

Congress must come together, put aside partisan differences and help stop this outbreak.

I am greatly concerned, as Congresswoman DeGette has expressed, that the administration did not act fast enough in responding in Texas.

Isn't it possible that that discharge order contributed to GM's lax approach to safety defects on cars built by the old GM?

How many of those recalls, to your knowledge, relate to problems that were known to someone in GM before the bankruptcy sale order of July 2009?

When people use words like 'internal electronic systems,' it leaves a lot of us with questions about, what the hell does that really mean?

If we don't have a remedy for people harmed by generic drugs and they have to go on Medicare and Medicaid, we end up paying for it as taxpayers, don't we?

Costs should not be shifted to taxpayer-funded healthcare programs.

I think people in Iowa don't care anything about who's winning the political debate. They want these problems fixed, and they want them fixed now.

Since Americans were supposed to have 6 months to sign up, would you support ensuring they still have 6 months by extending the open enrollment period for 2 more months?

when you talk about the trade-off, Mr. Roenigk, between growing green beans in Iowa and corn in Iowa, you are talking about a false choice

What are we doing to affirmatively promote information through those platforms to try to counter some of the misinformation and encouragement that takes place over those platforms and educate young people to the alternatives that are…

in 1963, President Kennedy signed a National Mental Health Law that authorized Congress to spend up to $3 billion in the coming decades to construct a national network of community mental health centers, and then notes on the next page…

people who care about the rights of the mentally ill, like I do, people who care about protecting public safety, like I do, want to know what we have learned from these experiences as we move forward

Much of this area had no broadband, no video, and no other advanced services. This is an example of an investment working, where it needs to work, and thousands of Iowa families, businesses and students benefiting as a result.

I'm glad to see the Subcommittee tackling the issue of broadband expansion this early in the Congress, because there is an important link between broadband expansion and economic development.

Providing access to broadband services around the country, and especially in rural areas, increases the strength of local economies and improves the quality of life for American families.

I would say that the centerpiece of our work in the 112th Congress was passage of the Veterans Retraining Assistance Program as part of the VOW to Hire Heroes Act.

I think one of the things that is often lost on the American people is that a disproportionate share of our military comes from rural America, but it is not met by a disproportionate share of services in those rural populations.

I am pleased to see that we are leaving behind the more conventional route of 'one size fits all' and 'death by power point'.

I hope the confrontational attitude regarding our Constitutional oversight responsibility ends now.

It is impossible to do with insufficient funds. And it seems to me when we are talking about taking care of our veterans, you can't talk about implementing a dramatic new change in the system itself and then keep going back and wondering…
