Chairman Shimkus, corn growers are grateful for your advocacy for farmers and the renewable fuels.

Representing a rural district in which many small towns rely on just one pharmacy to access lifesaving drugs has made me a believer in the value of community pharmacists. I also believe in free markets and competition, but a healthy market…

In 2015, Russian authorities arrested Oleg Sentsov, Ukrainian filmmaker and human rights activist, for protesting the occupation of Crimea and sentenced him to 20 years in prison. On May 14 of this year, he began a hunger strike that has…

It's our responsibility to make sure our constituents' dollars are being used as intended--especially when it comes to keeping them safe.

I believe the bills before the Committee today will bolster America's public safety communications networks, and I'm proud to be an original cosponsor of two of them.

I think Congressman Lance is right on, or actually Chairman Walden too.

This bill provides the dual benefit of streamlining travelers' access to assistance when they need it, while allowing emergency workers to focus on urgent matters.

I encourage the Committee to continue moving this legislation forward in a timely manner because together, these bills can further our collective goal of more efficient, reliable, and cost-effective safety services for all Americans.

When you collect money for a certain purpose and not use it for that purpose most average Americans would not get away with what governments are allowed to get away with.

How many more of these events do we need before Republicans join us in taking decisive action to combat climate change?

If we are serious about stemming the terrible growth of the forest fire season as well as these other natural disasters, we need to abandon the disaster that is the Trump administration climate policy.

Let's manage our forests, let's sell some of the timber, and then let's look at shading along roads and near where residential areas are.

I challenge every Member of Congress and on this committee, to go to a fire camp and visit with the people that are fighting the fires.

We need to back up as a nation and start talking about how we manage our forests.

promoting greater value within our healthcare system is a worthy goal and I strongly support efforts to promote value-based models within our Medicare program and throughout our healthcare system.

The standard set forth by Congress is not being met. Rural America is being left behind.

This administration's policies have failed to deliver 'advanced telecommunications capability'--broadband--to the American people in a reasonable and timely fashion.

It is not to encourage; it is to get the job done.

I rise before you today to speak about Mr. Jack Edward Schurman, a longtime resident of Shelbyville, Illinois, in my 15th Congressional District, a disabled veteran, an advocate for former military men and women throughout the Nation, and…

So the Russians didn't like a U.S. company buying an old refinery, so what did the Russians do? They turned off the flow of oil. So just in the international world, if we want to help our allies decrease their reliance on imported crude…

To my friend Richard Neal, I understand the frustrations of this debate and some of the processes, but this gives us a chance to come down to the floor and just talk about the basic policy of: Is a carbon tax good, or is it not good? I…

Most people here know that I am not really a big a big fan of the renewable fuel standard, the RFS.

Biodiesel is every bit as important to my soybean growers as ethanol is to my corn growers.

While I think the RFS program is inherently flawed, I do not believe waivers given out in secret without established processes is a good use of Administrator Pruitt's authority.

It is great to be here tonight to talk about something that we have talked about quite a bit. I am glad to see the gentleman has, obviously, the LNG terminal and the Lithuanian- flagged Independence. I also brought it down. I don't have to…
