We are doing something that is saving lives of really innocent people, and it could also be Americans who are traveling in that space as well.

We are relitigating JCPOA. Period.

I would much rather that we took our time focusing, frankly, on the things that create good paying jobs that put people to work in this country.

We could ask if there is any doubt on this we could have companion legislation.

One of the last things we should be doing is allowing Boeing to export military fungible aircraft and providing access to the U.S. financial system to the Iranian regime.

Ultimately, my question is, is the Fed solvent? And I am not sure that has solidly been answered.

We are going to have a thorough complete examination of what it is.

As a small-business owner and coming from a family of very entrepreneurial people, I know the importance of fostering an environment that promotes economic opportunity and especially allows small businesses to grow and create jobs. West…

Today I rise to thank Steve Begnoche for his service to the city of Ludington, Mason County, and the Second Congressional District in Michigan. Last Thursday, Steve hung up his hat as the managing editor of the Ludington Daily News. For…

And I would argue that arbitration actually benefits the consumer as much as it benefits anybody else in that process because it is streamlined.

I have to tell you that I am a little surprised, and a little stunned. You just have laid out a case where you are intentionally trying to create conflict between State law and Federal law.

So for those watching on C-SPAN and the rest, the answer to both of those questions is 'no.'

I understand it is comprehensive, but there are a number of people involved in that space who believe that there were major flaws in the data and how it was used.

I offer an amendment. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 9, after line 16, insert the following: ``(iii) Engages on behalf of any party in a transaction involving a…

It has been estimated that approximately $10 trillion--with a T, 12 zeros--worth of small, privately owned, and family-operated businesses will be sold or closed in the coming years as baby boomers retire. Mergers and acquisitions brokers…

I appreciate the efforts of my colleague from California. We have worked well on a number of these issues. I would point out, though, that maybe not you, but some others are trying to act like this is the monumental thing whereas mergers…

Yesterday we made history. For the first time, Congress put a bill on a President's desk to defund Planned Parenthood, an organization that puts its financial interests ahead of women and children. More than that, Congress is investing in…

I thank my friend from Indiana for doing so. It has been a pleasure working with him on this and many other issues. I have to tell you, my heart breaks for those families who have been impacted by violent crimes. These tragedies, however…

I am taking this second opportunity to rise because I think we have heard a lot of misinformation out there, and there is a lot of fog that has been getting thrown up into the air. This is about transparency. This is about accountability…

I appreciate the chairman yielding to me on this. Exactly what you were talking about is the case. This is merely a benchmark guideline to measure against. In fact, in committee, when Chair Yellen was testifying in front of our committee…

I don't trust Congress enough for us to come up with the rule, which is why I wrote into the bill that the Fed develops the rule, the guideline, the benchmark that they put forward. We know they do this already. They look at the Taylor…

I appreciate the opportunity. I want you to imagine with me. Imagine a single mom moving out of a trailer. She has had some tragedy in life. She has got two kids that are watching very, very closely, though, what she is doing and how she…

I think, I hope you are hearing from me and my other colleagues on both sides of the aisle that we need to have priorities and we may not be having to increase budgets if we would focus in on what your core mandate is.

Folks that are watching this at this late hour are unfortunately seeing politics over policy. The ranking member wants to agree but just can't let herself. This policy that we have seen, 73 percent of the Democrats on her committee signed…

If we are not careful, our central bankers will soon become our central planners.
