I thank the gentleman for suggesting that. I didn't hear him talk about the children who are having trouble getting food on their tables every morning and every evening. I didn't hear him talk about the unemployed, the 12 million American…
Well, I was pleased to schedule this. Obviously, as you know, it passed the Senate the other day. Hopefully, we will pass it on suspension next week and it will be sent to the President. Hopefully, the President will sign it. Obviously…
I thank the gentleman for his observations. He is right; we are for this. We are also for making sure that children have food on their tables. We are also supportive of making sure that education facilities have the money to keep their…
I just want to say, this business about illegals getting money, let me just give you an example. You have a husband and wife and three children living in an apartment. The husband does not have authorization to be here. What the bill…
I send to the desk a resolution and ask unanimous consent for its immediate consideration. The Clerk read the title of the resolution. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Trone). Is there objection to the request of the gentleman from Maryland…
I thank my friend, the chairman of the Education and Labor Committee, Mr. Bobby Scott, for yielding. He has done such an extraordinary job through the years in the minority and in the majority watching out for workers and creating jobs and…
Since the beginning of this Congress, House Democrats have fought for the people. From lowering healthcare costs to raising wages by rebuilding America, to cleaning up corruption and strengthening democracy, House Democrats have passed…
We live in an interesting age. I rise in strong support of this legislation. I have heard my Republican friends lament the fact that we have things in this bill that they don't like and apparently that the Senate doesn't like. I have been…
no matter what we do in the rules, no matter what our rules say, if we don't have comity and respect for one another, the rules will not make us work better.
our rules ought to facilitate the House's ability to move swiftly to address the most pressing challenges facing our country.
I thank my friend, the chairman of the Energy and Commerce Committee, and Mr. Walden, the ranking member of the Energy and Commerce Committee, for bringing this bill to the floor. But, most of all, I want to thank my friend, Dr. Phil Roe…
I am going to make some comments, but I want to just briefly remark about the gentleman from Pennsylvania's remarks about the PPP. That program was, of course, a bipartisan program that was negotiated between Mr. Cardin, Mr. Rubio, and…
