You know, our veterans deserve the best service from our government, including Social Security.

Social Security is helping veterans. Social Security is doing a great job hiring our veterans.

That is why I have introduced bipartisan legislation, H.R. 2243, the HEARTS Act, the Health Equity and Access for Returning Troops and Servicemembers Act.

I have long been committed to ensuring that our country does right by our veterans.

We have heard some outrageous arguments from our colleagues on the other side in the last hour or so. I have heard things like the argument that this is unnecessarily legislating medical standards. They said that this should be a matter of…

I thank the gentleman from New Jersey and all of our colleagues here tonight for standing for the sanctity of every human life. Mr. Speaker, I was born on January 30, 1972, 357 days before Roe v. Wade became the law of the land. Before I…

The situation has largely been forced upon residents by a misguided Federal policy, reminding us once again that Washington has a bad habit of drafting policies without giving local communities a seat at the table.

This new park will be a win for conservation and a win for access and it will be a win for the local communities.

This act does that. Specifically, it creates three new separate national monuments, creates a management council, transfers a historically significant trail to the state of Utah, and creates a new national park.

How in the world does creating a national park in some way endanger tourism? In fact, our intent here is to do exactly the opposite, and that is to foster and to increase tourism.

This is an unprecedented move that will give local leaders a powerful voice and a seat at the table.

To date, you and other government officials have refused to comply with the production of these documents.

Today I rise in strong support of H.R. 38, the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017. Our constitutional right to keep and bear arms should not be confined by State lines. Yet, currently, a person who has legally obtained a concealed…

The Department of Justice recently admitted in court that they are treating the President's disturbing and combative tweets as 'official statements of the President of the United States.'

The number two official on Mr. Mueller's team, former FBI General Counsel Andrew Weissmann, as you know, was just shown to have made biased comments against President Trump.

I have always found it interesting that Director Comey never sought to obtain the hacked DNC servers.

With regard to terrorism, the Department of Homeland Security has recently indicated the threat environment in the U.S. is perhaps the most serious since the 9/11 attacks.

In September, I led a letter with 17 members of Congress from Texas and Louisiana to Attorney General Sessions to request a thorough investigation into Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast's actions of selling aborted fetal tissue for financial…

Is it your belief that a sitting President can be guilty of obstructing justice?

It seems like it has gotten to the point where we are deciding our case law based on who is in the executive branch.

And should we not wait for that to happen as opposed to the legislative branch putting its heavy finger and thumb and entire hand and body on the scales of justice in the development of our case law?

There is a trend here tonight. Those who are addressing the House this evening have had their own experience with this burdensome Tax Code. They have been small- business owners, entrepreneurs, job creators, and farmers, like my friend…

We have heard some compelling arguments here on the floor in the last few hours and some important facts have been shared. I appreciate so much the eloquent words of my colleagues from Texas and Kentucky and Virginia and Pennsylvania and…

We have heard a lot in this debate today. One thing is abundantly clear. Virtually every hardworking citizen in this country recognizes our genuine need for tax reform. Let me summarize some of the facts that have been presented today. The…

I thank the gentleman from Texas, who is always eloquent. Madam Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Kentucky (Mr. Comer).
