I think we need to keep our foot on the gas pedal to make sure that we're honoring our promises to make sure our veterans are healthy, wealthy, and wise.

So, I agree with the chairwoman of the House Armed Services Committee on Military Personnel that we should make that notification official and we should try to expedite it in the next available legislative vehicle.

It should not be this hard for the men and women, who dutifully raised their right hand in service to our Nation, to get the healthcare and the disability benefits that they have earned by their courageous service. And the VA needs to fix…

These veterans and their families, quite frankly, have sacrificed enough.

This is certainly a momentous time for Afghanistan and the region.

The most important accomplishment, I think in 50 years looking back

How do we demonstrate to the Taliban that the status of women and girls is a major priority in restoring that country's stability

Justice Ginsburg was a force for good on the Supreme Court and a true champion for justice, equality, and the balance of power in our representative democracy.

Rise to the occasion by standing up for the great cause of women's rights, which is indisputably human rights

We taught a quarter of a million Afghan women how to read and write.

I fully appreciate the difficulty of your task.

The rights of women and girls was not included as a priority for us going into negotiations

After 240 years of patriotic service delivering the mail, how can one person screw this up in just a few weeks?

Will you put the machines back?

What the heck are you doing? That's my question.

As chairman of the Subcommittee on National Security, I want to rise in strong support of H.R. 8015, the Delivering for America Act. This urgent legislation would reverse the ill-advised changes to mail delivery that the new Postmaster…

One of the things that really bothers me is that... I have thousands and thousands of flights that fly over minority communities and low-income communities.

We put in $1.7 billion into that program, a 500 percent increase.

My bill was the Climate Change National Security Strategy Act, which will require... all 13 Federal agencies to budget for climate change response and resiliency.

I do want to take a second just to push back a little bit on Mr. Gosar's suggestion that there's been inaction on this committee.

So, I approach this with a little bit of skepticism, just healthy skepticism.

We all know what it is, I mean, just horrific, horrific, and OPM had not even encrypted Social Security numbers.

So, Boston is traditionally one of the more difficult larger cities to count, I think, partly because of the influx of students.

I am deeply disappointed that the peace agreement signed between the United States and the Taliban earlier this year does nothing.

I asked if we had put the rights of women and girls in Afghanistan on the negotiation table.
