I, again, thank my good friend from the Hudson Valley, my Rockbound Highland home, who, unfortunately, didn't beat Navy this weekend. He is from a great area of our country, a beautiful place, and has well represented the Hudson Valley. I…
I thank my good friend for yielding. I appreciate that. Mr. Speaker, I am here to honor one of my dear friends. When I first got on the Energy and Commerce Committee, the battle that was going on in that committee was over healthcare…
I appreciate my good friend from Iowa for yielding. I also appreciate her leadership on this issue. So many of the bills we are debating and talking about tonight under her leadership are complementing and bringing in her medical expertise…
I want to emphasize this bill does not ban TikTok. It simply would require the Chinese Communist Party-affiliated ByteDance to sell TikTok and divest their interest. I was asked: Does this affect TikTok? No. It is any foreign adversary or…
I appreciate Dr. Schrier and all the work that she has done, all the work that the two gentlemen who spoke as primary sponsors have done on this bill. It is a good bill. Mr. Speaker, in closing, I urge my colleagues to support H.R. 3836…
This is an important bill. We have our two good friends from California working together across the aisle in a bipartisan way in the Energy and Commerce Committee. This is an important bill to move forward. Mr. Speaker, in closing, I urge…
I urge my colleagues to support the underlying bill, and I yield back the balance of my time.
In closing, this is an important piece of legislation. I thank my friends for bringing this forward. I urge my colleagues to support H.R. 3843, and I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion…
I thank the gentleman for yielding. I rise in support today of H.R. 6544, the Atomic Energy Advancement Act. I represent western Kentucky coal communities, including Muhlenberg, McLean, and Ohio Counties. Unfortunately, Washington…
I appreciate my friend from South Carolina for yielding me time. I rise in support of the Unlocking Our Domestic LNG Potential Act. Last month, the Biden administration doubled down on its war against American energy production by…
I have no further speakers and am prepared to close. I reserve the balance of my time.
You are subsidizing one side of it, not the other, and quite honestly, putting in roadblocks for what is the most important thing--is generating power.
My concern is that corporate America is just investing for the subsidies right now.
My friend from New Jersey did say that this law expires at the end of the year. That is why we are here today to make scheduling illicit fentanyl permanent. We have to understand what the status quo is. The status quo currently is…
May I inquire as to the time remaining. The Acting CHAIR (Mr. D'Esposito). The gentleman from Kentucky has 5\1/2\ minutes remaining. The gentleman from New Jersey has 8 minutes remaining.
This was a bipartisan bill. It got bipartisan votes in committee. It is the DEA's number one priority. If you are selling fentanyl to our kids, you deserve to be incarcerated. We don't apologize for that. Madam Chair, I yield 2 minutes to…
Transparency can reveal the true value of each step in the healthcare supply chain and empower patients and employers to get the best deal on high-quality care.
While transparency is necessary for a functioning market, there must also be competition to lower prices and increase quality.
We are here today because the healthcare costs continue to rise, further limiting America's budgets that have already been stretched by the inflation driven by the spending in the last couple of years.
I strongly support the bipartisan PBM Accountability Act to provide key information to employers about the drug costs.
There is also bipartisan legislation from Representative Carter that would finally ban spread pricing in Medicaid.
I am hopeful we can come to a bipartisan agreement on a path forward to extend funding and--on the necessary offsets for the Teaching Health Care Center Graduate Medical Education program.
Today the healthcare subcommittee is taking an important step in reauthorizing critical programs within the Health Resources and Services Administration.
