Whether intended or not, this hearing gives a platform to conspiracy theories and lies. And it's a destructive exercise that has no place in the United States Senate. Despite the title of today's hearing, there were no widespread election…

I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. For 40 years, the city of San Diego has treated the region's sewage through the Point Loma Wastewater Treatment Plant. It is a chemically enhanced primary treatment facility that treats wastewater to a…

I would like to start by giving a quick history lesson, and I will begin with just two numbers. These two numbers speak to how extraordinary it is that we are here today debating and voting on a nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court. The…

So to have this lag in delivery is very concerning.

Well, it is. My committee staff has been ongoing an investigation to find out exactly what's happening after the postmaster general decided to put a pause on the changes so that he put forward in July, as we know, had a significant impact…

These are medical procedures that are necessary for a woman's health and many times her life.

I think it has to be central, and this puts a real face on what is involved when you are approving a Supreme Court nominee.

the outpouring of e-mails that I have received from folks around the country and women who have experienced similar types of situation feel that they're not heard, they're not seen, and to think you're going to put someone on a Supreme…

the mental anguish someone goes through is intense, trying to have a miscarriage for a child that was wanted.

This is going to become a bigger issue for families for a long time.

Not based on good medical practice, simply based on politics.

It's important for folks to understand that these things happen to folks every day.

When you have a president saying to Michigan, liberate Michigan. Liberate Michigan from the oppression that is happening right now by the government, you see that can have an impact.

We have to condemn hatred. We have to condemn bigotry. We have to condemn this insidious rise of domestic terrorism and violence. It's up to the president of the United States to show leadership, to unite this country instead of continuing…

I thank the gentleman for yielding and the chairman for his leadership. Mr. Speaker, last year, I visited Bernardo Heights Middle School in Rancho Bernardo to meet with students of the school's SAVE Promise Club and the Mental Health…

like countless Americans, I am grieving the loss of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. As the second woman to serve on the Supreme Court, and the first Jewish woman to do so, she was a pioneer, a brilliant jurist, and a historical giant who…

I applaud the decision. I think it's a very good decision.

This is not the time to be making these changes, particularly without having analysis to kind of anticipate as to what the impact would be.

I heard from a mother whose daughter needed medicine to deal with her epileptic seizures and expected to get the mail in three days, it didn't come, it didn't come. It was nine days before it was delivered.

On-time delivery of mail is absolutely critical for people in Michigan and across the country. This is simply unacceptable to have these policies put in place by the postmaster general.

Did you discuss those changes or are there potential impact on the November election with the president or anyone at the White House? And remind you you're under oath.

Are you suspending your policy eliminating extra trips, yes or no?

It's clear that these have had an impact. He more or less said that. But it's clear that he's not taking, in my mind, the kinds of actions necessary.

There will be no post office closures or expenses before November 3?

So, you will not bring back any processors?
