Our bill fixes that. It puts real federal money on the table the moment an emergency like this hits, so no community has to face it alone.

The threats AI poses to our national security, our safety, and our workforce are here and growing by the day. This bipartisan framework is designed to meet the challenges posed by this rapidly advancing technology without smothering…

this vote is a waste of time. Nothing in this Republican healthcare plan will stop Americans' healthcare premiums from skyrocketing. When this bill fails to become law--and it will fail--20 million Americans will see their premiums surge…

People are going to die. These hospitals are going to close. Labor and delivery units are going to disappear.

Proponents of Donald Trump's so-called big, beautiful bill are lying to the American people. They claim it won't cut Medicaid, but it slashes $715 billion, gutting care for seniors and children with disabilities. They insist moms and kids…

I was unable to attend the vote series today due to a personal family matter. Had I been present, I would have voted YEA on Roll Call No. 121 and NO on Roll Call No. 122. ____________________

I thank the gentleman for yielding, as well as his leadership and that of Chair Bilirakis on this important issue. Mr. Speaker, I introduced the Youth Poisoning Protection Act alongside Representative Mike Carey because we are facing an…

We are witnessing yet another shameful attack on the fundamental rights of millions of Americans. House Republicans are forcing a vote this week on the so-called SAVE Act, a bill that does nothing to stop inflation from driving up grocery…

As the designee of Congresswoman Pettersen, I have an amendment at the desk. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 23, strike lines 13 through 16 and insert the…

It is a very spirited debate on the other side, but this is on the amendment. This amendment would just make sure that the underlying bill actually does what it is intended to do, which is save lives simply by ensuring that the Secretary…

May I inquire as to the time remaining. THE SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentlewoman from Massachusetts has 3 minutes remaining.

We are more than 3 weeks into January, yet Republican leadership in this Chamber has failed to call a vote on a single piece of legislation to address the pressing needs of hardworking families. There has been nothing to ease the burden of…

House Republicans have a big vote planned for today. Now, I wish I was talking about a bill that will lower costs for hardworking families or help more Americans buy a home, the issues that so many people told us mattered most to them in…

I thank the gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. Pallone) for yielding. Mr. Speaker, I express my sincere gratitude to Ranking Member Pallone, Chair Rodgers, Ranking Member Eshoo, Chairman Guthrie, Congresswoman Miller-Meeks, and my colleagues…

I thank the gentleman for yielding, and I am grateful to Ranking Member Pallone, Chair Rodgers, Ranking Member Schakowsky, Chairman Bilirakis, and members of the Energy and Commerce Committee for their unanimous support for this…

This reauthorization of NTIA is bipartisan legislation that ensures that NTIA will have the authority it needs to continue both connecting Americans to high-speed, reliable, and affordable broadband and overseeing innovative technological…

I thank the gentleman for yielding and for his leadership on this important issue as ranking member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. Madam Speaker, I rise in support of this bipartisan legislation, in particular, the important…

The overwhelming majority of Americans-- Democrats, Republicans, and Independents alike--are clear in their support for Social Security. In fact, nearly 9 in every 10 Americans oppose cutting Social Security. That is because for the last…

This entire charade is ridiculous. Speaker Johnson is about to send Members of Congress home for the rest of the year. Instead of lowering costs for families before the holidays or protecting women's freedom to make their own health…

We have 10 days until House Republicans force a catastrophic government shutdown; 10 days until the food assistance that nearly 50 million Americans rely on, including 6 million women and children, is put in jeopardy; 10 days until seniors…

NHTSA must regularly review and update the list of companies subject to the SGO. The agency must ensure compliance with the SGO by all subjected companies.

I thank the chairman for yielding and for his decision to highlight the unprecedented investment being made in regions across our country. Over the past 2 years, every single State across New England has benefited mightily from President…

I share the ranking member's concern that we need to fully understand how this technology can be used for the wrong reasons.

I am glad that the committee is bringing awareness to the potential that blockchain technologies have to offer and the promising applications of Web 3.
