Betty McCollum: “Congresswoman McCollum, you know, appreciate all your support.”

I rise in support of the FY2026 Financial Services and General Government and National Security, Department of State, and Related Programs Appropriations Act.

I urge the Republican House Majority to stop bringing these harmful and nonsensical attacks on our public health and the environment to the House floor.

Well, in my opinion, being present when some of the stuff happened, that is an unintended consequence, totally unintended consequence.

Mr. Speaker, last week the Republican Majority in the House of Representatives decided that they know better than the residents of the District of Columbia what their local government needs.
