I feel just compelled to tell you, as I hear my colleagues talk about the approach...

We need to be--and this is a pandemic--that FEMA should be doing a lot more direct contact with these communities.

Please help black and brown communities. They are dying at a higher rate and we need to do more in this country.

Administrator, one of the things--and I am so glad you are talking about the conditions that existed prior to the pandemic and the fact that we have these broken systems that are structurally racist and do not include every single person…

People are dying and they are getting sick and they don't have access to resources, as you acknowledged, because of the systems that have been set up against them.

I am just curious as to what have you all done, how intentional are you in making sure that you are covering communities that are predominantly black and brown, in regard to how you approach this pandemic?

the House adopted my amendment to the NDAA focused on care for crew members who have experienced unexplained psychological episodes while operating the F-35.

On any given day, over 50 percent of the F-35 fleet is flying with non-RFI spare parts.

I just want to appreciate everyone being available to us.

I think it is--so, essentially, our pilots are being forced to fly aircraft that neither the DOD or Lockheed Martin can verify are 100 percent safe due to electronic log problems and ALIS.

we lost more Black home ownership in Michigan than any other State, about 40 percent.

They obviously can't pay, so let's put that as an option and stop playing games with people who really--they are going to lose their home.
