Can you please take this back to your country and let them know that we have direct experience here in Europe that really bad things happen when the United States chooses not to lead?

We were the only country in the world that had decided not to be a part of that treaty.

I am really troubled that we are debating science on the Science Committee.

I guess what I am curious about is, do you agree that we need to strengthen the Bank Secrecy Act and fix those loopholes so that we can prevent our adversaries from laundering money, evading sanctions, and potentially funding terrorism?

And I tee that up to thank my colleagues in the Senate, Senator Warren and Senator Marshall, who have just introduced a bill, which we will be co-introducing in the House shortly, to close those gaps in the Bank Secrecy Act to make sure…

Can we maintain an affordable, reliable, and decarbonized grid if we rely only on traditional renewables? To hear our Republican colleagues talk, absolutely not. They say that nuclear and advanced fossil fuels and hydrogen all have to be…

This is obscene. If you had a Member of Congress who said, I don't believe in the laws of gravity, we would go out of our way out of love and respect for them and their family to keep them away from the Speaker's balcony.

Do you have a responsibility to evaluate all risks?

I think there is a fair criticism that you are not doing enough.

I hope that someday the Republican Party embraces capitalism and investor rights once again.

Milton Friedman is turning over in his grave, but I am sure that our nation's beleaguered C-suite executives are thanking the Republican Party for standing up for their fragile interests and needs.

Partisanship in defense of free markets is no vice.

This past weekend, on Father's Day, 23 people were shot and 1 person was killed at a Juneteenth celebration in Willowbrook, Illinois. Law enforcement has not yet identified a suspect or a motive, but preliminary reports have indicated…

if we care about transparency, if we care about a fulsome debate, let us insist on the same transparency in this body that we seem to be concerned about at the Treasury.

My Republican colleagues are presently fiddling while Rome burns, but I come to praise my Republican colleagues, not to bury them. I come to praise my friend Patrick McHenry for his wisdom just 6 months ago when he said that he opposes…

If we blow up, and I would remind my colleagues that we expanded the debt limit every time when Trump was President...

We will be judged not by what we did in hindsight but what we do, going forward.

In the 10 years since the Sandy Hook shooting, the NRA has spent more than $100 million to help elect Republicans who will make it easier to sell more guns so we can kill more kids--$100 million. They have gotten what they paid for because…

Moody's analysis is that it would increase the likelihood of recession and result in 780,000 fewer jobs.

I want you to imagine that you get home from work tomorrow and decide that you just don't want to pay your mortgage, so you call your bank and share the good news. The bank, at that point, explains that if you don't, you are looking at…

I think you have probably seen up here that there is bipartisan agreement that private markets are bigger than public markets right now, and that there is a concern about some risk of arbitrage and the opportunities that affords.

How responsible is that person for this storm? That's not a scientific question. That's a political question.

I've depended on NOAA analysis to explain what's going on.

I am going to be honest. I am at a loss for words. This bill, the polluters over people act, is bad for the consumers, bad for the environment, and bad for the U.S. economy. You wouldn't know that from the rhetoric across the aisle…

I ask for a quick show of hands: How many of us in this room have ever had someone come into our office and ask to make the world safer for their competitors? Me neither. The Record will show that no hands were raised. This is because…
