We are here precisely because of Donald Trump, because he wants this retribution exacted against Adam Schiff for standing up against Donald Trump's lies and assaults on American democracy. I congratulate the gentlewoman on her forthcoming…
Jamie Raskin
The Public Record
Jamie Raskin is an American attorney, law professor, and politician serving as the U.S. Representative for Maryland's 8th congressional district since 2017. A member of the Democratic Party, Raskin has been an advocate for various progressive policies, including healthcare reform and civil rights. He gained national attention for his role in the impeachment proceedings against former President Donald Trump, where he served as a lead impeachment manager during the Senate trial in early 2020.
I thank the ranking member of the Rules Committee for those astute remarks. I note that dozens of Members of our caucus have come to stand with Mr. Schiff today, while the sponsor of this resolution, Mrs. Luna, appears to be completely…
They defend the big lie, they defend the insurrection, they defend George Santos, but they attack Adam Schiff. Mr. Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Carson).
The philosophy in my office is that everything we do is about constituent service, whether it is helping people get their Social Security checks, helping people get their passports, getting PPP loans.
I agree with my friend from New Mexico who said that, as politicians, we cannot defund the government and then rail against the government.
The primary threat to American freedom today, I would argue, comes from those who want to control women's access to healthcare.
Article I, Section 8, Clause 15 says Congress has the power to call forth the militias from the States in order to ``suppress insurrections.'' Does that sound like a pro-insurrection document to you? How about the Republican Guarantee…
I thank the chairman kindly for his courtesy in granting me this time. Today is June 13. We have had 164 days in the year 2023, and we have had 291 mass shootings. We are having, on average, 1\1/2\ mass shootings every single day in…
When we get regulation right, we avoid disaster. When we get regulation wrong, we court disaster.
Ninety percent of the American people favor a universal violent criminal background check on sales of firearms in the country.
Now, like the dog who caught the car, their Supreme Court, which is well packed at this point, has adopted their extremist view, and it leaves them speechless because the people of America completely reject it.
Another major threat to American freedom today comes from the imposition of random gun violence on the population all across America.
The truth is that regulations have a profound effect on every aspect of our daily lives.
Republicans are vehemently pro-regulation when it comes to advancing an ideological agenda that is theirs.
Most Americans support government regulation across a whole wide range of industries and social activities.
Representative Raskin publicly called on his fellow committee Members to denounce white supremacism.
As Ranking Member Raskin said, they do not want to repeal regulations that ensure that their medicines are safe and effective.
I did notice that after the Dobbs decision was handed down, many of our colleagues who used to talk a lot about abortion have gone completely mum about it.
Now, some politicians like to say that they are anti-regulation, but of course they are pro-regulation when it comes to restricting our personal rights and our freedoms.
I think that he was probably involved in trying to get Vice President Pence to step outside of his constitutional role, and simply declare that certain states' Electoral College votes wouldn't be accepted.
So I think Trump was obviously the mastermind and ringleader, not Mark Meadows.
It certainly seems like they're closing in on the target and the person who undoubtedly set all of the events of January 6 into motion.
Mark Meadows proved to be a very weak chief-of-staff. I mean, what I took from all of the people who testified about him before our committee was that he agreed with whomever was talking to him at the time, but fundamentally, he would go…
To be clear, where there is a legitimate issue to address, we are prepared to work with our Republican colleagues.
