Had I been present, I would have voted NO on Roll Call No. 57. PERSONAL EXPLANATION

When autocrats praise USAID's downfall, you know how vital its work is.

Upholding global stability—and preventing it from falling into the CCP's hands—is American.

Shutting down USAID isn't 'tough' policy. It's fundamentally weak because it cedes leadership to our foremost adversary—the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

The cuts were horrible news for global public health.

There’s only so much they can try to do to change the law, it all failed.

Today I rise in opposition to the partisan H.R. 1398. Unfortunately, this new ``CCP initiative'' that this bill creates is simply a knockoff version of the China Initiative created by Donald Trump which was notorious for racially profiling…

No, I support the bill. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Massachusetts (Mr. McGovern) will control 20 minutes in opposition. General Leave

Had I been present, I would have voted NO on Roll Call No. 348. Amendment No. 3 Offered by Mr. Self The Acting CHAIR (Mrs. Cammack). The unfinished business is the demand for a recorded vote on amendment No. 3, printed in House Report…

This past Saturday, May 18, marked the 15th anniversary since the end of the civil war in Sri Lanka. The conflict saw the death, disappearance, abuse, and displacement of tens of thousands of Tamil people in Sri Lanka. I want to take this…

Had I been present, I would have voted NAY on Roll Call No. 193. ____________________

I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. Madam Speaker, I rise in strong support of H.R. 8036. A recent survey showed the majority of Americans believe there is a 50/50 chance or greater of war between the United States and China. It is one…

Partisan gamesmanship over the southern border is causing this House to neglect the needs of thousands of legally admitted children and families for whom hunger and homelessness await. Catholic Charities of Chicago estimates they now serve…

We must not stand for laws that discriminate based on ethnicity and nationality.

Let's make sure that the policies passed by this Committee are grounded in fact, not fear.

No, not at all. It was a circus and it was a waste of time. We should be working on other things aside from this, but unfortunately, this saga continues and I think the same results came out of it, which was nothingburger again.

I thank Chair McMorris Rodgers and Ranking Member Pallone for their extraordinary leadership in protecting our privacy and our data privacy. I thank them for their excellent leadership in helping to pass legislation last week that is going…

You folks don't want to pursue policies that discriminate against anybody.

Laws like SB 264 are neither fair nor justified.
