Once again, as has been mentioned in previous pieces of legislation, there is a reason why we name our facilities after these men. Charlie Dowd was an amazing person who stood up for this Nation and truly pursued the American Dream and…

The farm bill will not be passed in time to rescue this, I am sorry to say.

The cost of inaction is way too high.

Our retaliatory agricultural tariffs against American exports, I believe, are the main driver of our farm surpluses and our low prices here in America.

How many more residents need to be displaced? How many more people need to lose their lives before we say enough is enough?

We must take decisive action to ensure the safety and security of this Nation's rail networks by passing H.R. 8996.

Our Nation's railroad network used to be the crowning achievement of American industry.

I encourage all my colleagues to support this piece of legislation. This is exactly why we name our facilities after those veterans who have served to this level, not only as a veteran and in military service but also in their civilian…

I once again encourage all of our Members to support this legislation, and I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion offered by the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Bost) that the House suspend…

I would like to take a moment to respond to Ms. Crockett's comments about breaking precedent today with this naming bill. Sam Johnson was a prisoner of war for 7 years. He was held in solitary confinement for more than 3 of those years in…

I am taking on more debt than I had last year, not digging out, digging in, and I hear from many of my good friends, long-term farm families around the Modesto, California, area in the central San Joaquin Valley, as well as banks, that we…

I am looking for support for the MFRATS, Market Facilitation Retaliatory Ag Tariffs Supplement, and let's make no question about this. We are taking the gloves off.

So we have a banking crisis, and we have the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ratcheting down lending standards, ratcheting down bank flexibility at a time when we can least afford it.

So, you would end up using more land to grow the same amount of crop at less profit per acre, I know profit is a dirty word in some places around here, but if you are not making a living, if you are not in the black, then you are not going…

So, when you find that the vast majority of our crops grown in this country do use some level of weed control or insect control in order to be viable, then we have to acknowledge that, or we are not going to be the breadbasket for the…

Our fear is that the local lending institution is going to call their notes due, and it is going to put them out of business.

We need guardrails, but we don't need roadblocks.

If we say it has been sloppy at best is the way we can describe it.

This is why I extended an invitation last December for Administrator Regan to reappear before the Committee.

Our farmers deserve an Administration that works with them, not against them.

I do wish that the EPA themselves were here, and the reason being is because there is, like all government agencies, they are supposed to be here to help, not to hinder.

Food security is national security, and several have said that today.

I will tell anybody that farmers are the best environmentalists that this country has.

This situation is going to get much more urgent for farmers. They need to get tools in a timely fashion.
