I am a little bit more than frustrated, to be honest with you. I am kind of angry.

But, you know, come on, 8 years? Eight years. And we are not talking about small, unimportant things.
I don't know, but I am just guessing that if that was somebody else that he didn't like that the President would say that person was lying, and has been lying for day, after day, after day.
somebody somewhere at DHS and ICE, at some point, is going to have to ask themselves, when is it too much? When are the orders too much? I can't do them.
it is unequivocally directed to your superiors who do have the authority to say no, and should have said no to this policy.
I don't remember being taught by any of the Jesuits it was OK to separate parents from children.
I am just curious, because it strikes me, if the President says for day, after day, after day on T.V. that he doesn't have the authority and then now he does.
Elliot Richardson quit. When the President of the United States ordered him to take action he found to be immoral, he quit his job.
What is difficult for me to understand is the obsession on just one border, and the obsession on only one fix to the issue there.
I believe that fraud is fraud, and that States should be free to regulate any form of securities fraud that they see fit.
Unfortunately, H.R. 5037, seems to be aimed directly at the Martin Act, and by preempting these State laws, the bill would allow small-time fraud to run rampant.

I am also very concerned regarding reports that the OCC has found that more banks open accounts without the consent of their customers.
Do you believe that homeownership is probably the most firm and sound and most used way for relatively poor or moderately poor working class people to move into the middle class?
I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. There are some good things in this bill. I wanted to work with all of you to enshrine the good things and get rid of the bad things. We all did. We all offered it for years because Dodd-Frank is a good…
The details of this bill, getting rid of HMDA requirements, do you not care about discrimination? Do you not recognize that it is real and that it exists? But, apparently, you don't care. Do you not care that your constituents had their…
Mr. Chairman, we know exactly how to end a person's homelessness: You provide her with a home.
I introduced H.R. 2076, a $13.2 billion bill, the Ending Homelessness Act, which provides a surge of new resources.
I don't think there is any division, any problems talking about homelessness both in rural and urban areas.
