my Democratic colleagues say wealthy Americans should pay their fair share. Yet they want to expand the electric vehicle tax credit for the rich once again. In this bill, there are two separate EV tax credits: one for people who want to…

I ask for the yeas and nays. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there a sufficient second? There appears to be a sufficient second. The clerk will call the roll. The senior assistant legislative clerk called the roll. The result was announced--yeas…

I rise today to voice my concern about attempts to undermine American institutions. There is a difference between constructive efforts to ensure public institutions are accountable and trying to cut down these foundational institutions at…

None of our producer members were encouraged to testify or willing to put themselves out front for fear of possible retribution by other market participants.

I would like to tell you a story about North Platte, NE. During World War II, this small, West Central Nebraska town was one of the most famous cities in America, and it was the epitome of homefront patriotism. From Christmas Day 1941 to…
