Our Nation has never seen anything like the coronavirus outbreak. At a time when our American businesses are forced to close and American families face fear and uncertainty, we do what Americans do best: We come together and support one…

Maryland, Mrs. Secretary Robinson, is one of 27 States that run their own State apprenticeship programming.

I just want to say thank you for that. But also, I am thrilled to be working on a bipartisan bill with Congressman Guthrie from Kentucky in this space.

Thank you, Chairwoman Davis and Ranking Member Smucker, for holding this important hearing.

I thank the gentleman for yielding. Today, we remember one of the darkest chapters in our history, the Shoah, when 6 million Jews were brutally murdered in a genocide that left an indelible mark on humanity. This year marks 75 years since…

I have significant concerns about the administration's inability to answer these questions and communicate a coherent strategy.

Soleimani was responsible for the attacks that killed hundreds of Americans and thousands of Iraqis, Syrians, and others.

The careful plotting and planning he put into sowing death, destruction and chaos is absolutely reprehensible.

The Trump Administration has failed to provide a coherent rationale for the strike that killed him.

I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. I rise today in support of hundreds of thousands of students across the Nation who are victims of predatory for-profit colleges. Over 4,000 borrowers in Maryland and 227,000 nationally are paying the…

This summer, I learned firsthand the shortcomings of the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Act, or the WARN Act, with the closing of Luke.

This is why I joined Congressman Tim Ryan in introducing legislation that would strengthen the WARN Act to give workers and communities the notice they need.

We all agree all children deserve a safe and healthy childhood however, this Administration has continuously worked to implement policies that discourage or prevent children, families from accessing education, healthcare, and other…

So these policies are driving income inequality, driving health inequality, and certainly fueling our criminal justice system where we are spending $80 billion when we should be spending that on education.

I am concerned that the DOL isn't sufficiently carrying out its statutory requirements to safeguard the welfare of apprenticeships within the Registered Apprenticeship system.

If you could look into it and get back the week after Thanksgiving, that would be great.

Unfortunately, rather than doing that, the Trump administration has improperly shifted funding from Registered Apprenticeships to start an entirely new program.

When I look for positions there is 2,526 postings on that site, but only 11 were for Registered Apprenticeships.

Can you explain to us how you justify using Registered Apprenticeship funds when less than 1 percent of the website's posting are for true Registered Apprenticeship positions?

I think that is important and I am glad you brought up the website because I always look for ways my constituents can get a better job.

Registered Apprenticeships are by far America's most successful workforce training program, delivering real results, both workers and employers.

Today I rise to praise the House for unanimously passing the Dignity in Aging Act. This act includes two bipartisan bills that I led to respond to challenges facing a growing aging American population: social isolation and younger onset…

There was a green light by the Administration. I would call it a very bright green light.

We have a moral commitment. We had a moral commitment. We still do.

I would call it a very bright green light that came from the President.
