I find that everyone I talk to out there of course has great respect for what veterans have done for their country and wants every one of them to be employed, and I disagree with the previous statements that are to the contrary.

Thank you, Dr. Gingrey, and thanks again for having this time for the Doctors Caucus to talk about health care reform. What I want to focus on in my brief time is the Republican alternatives that we have had all along. When the Affordable…

As a physician, my goal is to make certain that every American has access to quality, affordable health care. The President and congressional Democrats promised that you can keep your health insurance if you like it. Well, we learned…

I am pleased to call to order this morning's hearing to examine the fundamental science and research activities at the National Science Foundation, known as the NSF, National Institutes for Standards and Technology, known as NIST, and the…

This legislation is simple, but has the potential to save the trucking industry nearly $1 billion. If the Department of Transportation--specifically the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration--decides they want to weigh in on sleep…

As a medical doctor and physician, I personally know the devastation that addiction can cause.

Despite the grim realities of meth addiction, science can provide valuable insights to this problem.

I predict that we will be seeing more methamphetamine infiltrating the city as it becomes more readily available.

The problem of methamphetamine, or meth, abuse is a serious problem facing our country today.

I believe we can do even better.

I am looking forward to hearing from our witnesses on their thoughts about the proposed legislation.

The legislation would dedicate a portion of STTR program funding to provide grants to research institutions.

I was a practicing physician for 15 years, and I rise today to support the rule and support delaying the Affordable Care Act's employer and individual mandates. I support these delays because it's unfair to employees in my district who…

The Federal Government should not be in the business of picking winners and losers.

It is critically important that a strategic plan reflects the real needs of our Nation's manufacturers and should not be politicized and used as a tool to advance favored interests.

I believe such a strategic plan, if developed responsibly, can have positive implications for America's manufacturers and can lead to policies that improve our competitiveness.

I can't see why anyone on either side of the aisle after the testimony that we have heard today who says that they are here in Congress on behalf of the workers of America, all workers, could not have significant problems with what the…

To me, this is about the workers and even though some people want to say that worker intimidation is mostly historical, if you really want to go back to the days when my great-grandfathers and grandfathers were involved in those movements…

I thank you for that, and I wanted just to highlight that, how critical it is for Congress to help prevent insolvency of these multiemployer pension funds.

the medical device tax in the Affordable Care Act is damaging the industry.
