Early on, President Trump stopped flights from China, and then, Europe.

I comment the work of my colleagues, Anna Eshoo and Susan Brooks, to modernize the Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Act.

It is so critical that diverse populations, especially those with vulnerable populations, be adequately represented in the clinical studies.

We did a lot of that in the CARES Act in a bipartisan way for Medicare.

Early reports, of course, of deaths from COVID have found a startlingly high rate of mortality among the African American community.

Thank you so much for your leadership--your sponsorship of the NUKE Act and just your long-time support for this most vital and important industry

Thank you so much, Representative Latta, for your long leadership, especially on nuclear issues.

So I think in the Congress, there also has to be kind of a comprehensive look at how we maintain service to all of those unemployed workers.

COVID pandemic really does underscore the need for affordable and reliable electricity.

The energy sector has certainly not been spared.

We need to hear about them. We need to build on the CARES Act program and make changes.

The last three months have been a real challenge for all Americans as COVID has taken its toll.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. It's good to be back to work in DC with my colleagues.

Let's face it: Coronavirus has totally disrupted our lives across the country, in every community and certainly around the globe. To all of us, it is frightening. It is a nightmare. This bill is a partial response to end that disruption…

As Congress considers what policies to pursue to address climate change risks, nuclear technology should be at the center of the discussion.

In Michigan, two of our major utilities have announced goals to reduce carbon emissions by eighty and ninety percent by 2040.

I commend the Trump administration for their attention to this issue, including how important it is for the United States to increase nuclear fuel production.

If we are serious about reducing emissions and paving the way for new advanced technologies, then we must maintain a robust, existing fleet as well as the intellectual, technological, and regulatory infrastructure that supports it.

If we are going to maintain our energy security into the future, we need to invest in our existing nuclear fleet and streamline the deployment in advanced nuclear power.

Mr. McKinley was big on this as well.

I think the bill we passed in the House was stronger than existing HIPAA requirements.

One of the things that--great joys of serving in the Congress people from different districts and different issues and I will never forget the moment Bobby Rush from Chicago made it clear to me it is more than just opioids.

Unfortunately, I have to confess, my dear friend, the chairman of the committee now was the lead opposition to this.

We had instances where there had been loss of life because that information had not been shared.

I would like to think that what we did in this committee and then passed on the House floor will be a direct result of that.
