As written, my colleague's amendment would severely limit the Outsourcing Accountability Act and continue to leave companies in charge of whether or not they tell the public about outsourcing. Corporations are already going to great…

I thank Mrs. Maloney, the chair of the Investor Protection, Entrepreneurship, and Capital Markets Subcommittee, for her support on this bill. I also thank Senator Peters and Representative McNerney for their work on the Outsourcing…

getting our rural communities connected to the Internet so they can grow and thrive is definitely one of my highest priorities.

Adequate broadband access is critical to the success of our rural communities, small business owners, and farmers.

The total wealth of the top 1 percent has increased by more than $21 trillion.

Income inequality would be our economy's biggest challenge for the next 10 years.

We do not have proper processes and communications in place to help our families in need.

I was unable to vote on June 11, 2019 because I was returning to Washington, D.C. Had I been present to vote, I would have voted YEA on H. Res. 430--Authorizing the Committee on the Judiciary to initiate or intervene in judicial…

Iowans are struggling to keep up with the rising cost of prescription drugs. A teacher in Farragut, who has had diabetes for 20 years, is spending over $750 a month for insulin. That is a third of her take-home pay, and she needs a second…

I think this is an incredibly important issue, and I certainly hope that this isn't the last bill we take up on stock buybacks.

I was personally surprised when my staff told me that companies don't report this data, and having this information would help consumers and investors make decisions to support companies that help build American jobs.

U.S. companies spent up to 60 percent of the tax cuts they received in the Republican tax bill on stock buybacks.

I hope all of my colleagues believe that business schools, like my alma mater, Northwestern's Kellogg School of Management, aren't selling our businesses a bill of goods.

This bill is all about balancing a company's incentives to maximize short-term profits with the need to reinvest in their workforce and their company for the long-term.

Passing this disaster supplemental is vital to any community that suffered from disasters over these last 18 months. But I rise today to talk about one community--mine, Iowa's Third Congressional District. Entire towns were underwater…

I just want to close by thanking my colleagues across the aisle and, in particular, Representative Fortenberry and Mr. Curtis for helping out all these people in need, not just in our communities in Iowa, but across the country. I am…

I have an amendment at the desk. The CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 4, line 25, after the dollar amount, insert ``(increased by $310,000,000)''. The CHAIR. Pursuant to House…

It has been almost 2 months since severe flooding devastated communities in southwest Iowa and our neighbors in Nebraska, Kansas, and Missouri. Entire towns were under water, homes were destroyed, and family farms were devastated. Small…

My amendment is to increase funding for the Federal Highway Administration Emergency Relief program. As we have just discussed, I have toured the flood zones in my district, and I have experienced firsthand how badly the floodwaters have…

I think we all know that you profited tremendously from the tax cuts.

Given that the Administration's rationale for those tax cuts was so that companies could reinvest the money, Mr. Dimon, can you explain how you are investing that $3.7 billion in growing your company?

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 29, strike lines 3 through 7 and insert the following: SEC. 201. SEXUAL ASSAULT SERVICES PROGRAM…

The Violence Against Women Act expired on September 30, 2018. It is incredibly disappointing that we ever let this landmark bill expire in the first place, but we now have an opportunity to provide additional resources and address gaps in…

I appreciate what my colleague across the aisle is saying; however, our debt can be looked at in many ways to amend. However, our local police officers, our local communities, and our organizations that support victims with assistance are…
