It was a good product that passed out of here because of the work of this committee and the product that became law.

The idea was, almost like binding arbitration, to make sure that people of goodwill and good intentions would try to avoid the process at the end.

The role that this committee played in ensuring that Congress would pass a strong and balanced law--emphasis on 'balanced.'

Ways and Means Democrats continue to want what is best for America's patients.

For too long, millions of Americans have struggled with unexpected out-of-pocket health costs that have caused anxiety and hardship for their families.

I know what Kevin Brady and I intended when we helped to write this law.

I wish to call attention to the passing of the former speaker of the Massachusetts House of Representatives, David Bartley. Speaker Bartley was one of the most talented and gifted legislators I have known. His legislative prowess brought…

Without effective enforcement, trade liberalization measures can have a detrimental effect on America's workers and industries.

We believe that no supply chain should contain products made with forced labor.

We understand that U.S. trade policies should not come at the expense of American jobs or the rights of workers at home and abroad.

House Democrats, with leadership of this committee, paved the way for the May 10 agreement which brought labor and environmental provisions to the core of the U.S. trade agreements and made them enforceable for the first time.

President Biden and congressional Democrats continue to push an economic and trade agenda that is focused not only on building the economy, but that benefits all members of the working families in America and across our great country.

On that I demand the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays were ordered. This will be a 5-minute vote. The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 217, nays 215, not voting 3, as follows: [Roll No. 199] YEAS--217 Aderholt…

I remind everyone that, in Georgia-3, there was $2.6 billion worth of tax credits; Ohio-15, $4.5 billion of tax credits; West Virginia-1, $22 million worth of tax credits. Those tax credits did not go to the Chinese. They went to American…

I include in the Record a letter from Mr. Pascrell. Congress of the United States, House of Representatives, Washington, DC, March 8, 2023. Hon. Kevin McCarthy. Speaker of the House, Washington, DC. Dear Speaker McCarthy: Our most basic…

I thank the gentlewoman from Virginia for calling attention to these tax credits. Talk about fortuitous timing, Mr. Speaker, here is the author of these tax credits, all $370 billion, along with Earl Blumenauer. We intend to lay out where…

My point was and is Republicans voted for the PATH Act, as we did, and the bill is due. Mr. Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the distinguished gentleman from New York (Mr. Jeffries), the minority leader in the House of Representatives, a…

After years of Republican obstruction from members of this committee, outside the committee we finally secured some of the tax returns of ex-President Trump.

I have consistently stated that repealing the IRA additional enforcement funds will let the wealthy, large corporations and tax dodgers off the hook.

Americans are very tired of the two-tiered tax system that allows the wealthy and well-connected to play by one set of rules.
