we want to better understand the innovations being made by sports leagues, equipment manufacturers, and the medical community to make all sports safer.

The Public Record
I am not advocating for an end to sports as we know it, or maybe not exactly as we know it right now, but I also feel strongly that 300,000 head injuries per year are too many to overlook.
We owe it to them to take steps to limit the likelihood of data breach and ensure that they are informed when that happens.
I don't believe we can solve this problem by codifying detailed technical standards or with overlaying cumbersome mandates.
We need to be realistic and recognize there is no silver bullet that is going to fix this issue overnight.
No, I only have 3 minutes. If I have extra time, I will. Today we are taking what should be an easy vote and, frankly, a bipartisan vote. My legislation, the Exchange Information Disclosure Act, does nothing more than ask the…
We do add another part in here and another frustration from our State insurance commissioners, which is that they don't know who is selling the insurance. They would like to have the names of the people who are the navigators out there…
To clarify one thing, we did have a legislative hearing on this bill with robust debate on it in that committee hearing. Evidently, you didn't get the notice of that hearing.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Speaker, I thank the chairman for recognizing me, and I thank the gentleman from New York, my good friend. We have worked on several bills together, but the poison control bill is certainly one of those that…
I am skeptical of the need for H.R. 3132. The bill does not appear to address any real problems.
I am skeptical--skeptical, Mr. Cole, that such a diversion would be beneficial given the other important matters before this Commission.
I believe that we should concentrate our efforts on solving problems that truly require a legislative solution.
I think it is legislative malpractice to not recognize that there has been--well, now we know, some holes in those procedures.
I think we can universally agree that there was a breach in confidence because you couldn't trust the NRC at one point in time.
Simply, a lot of people say it can't be done. Congress did it by shutting down 1,200 online pharmacies that were black market pharmacies.
This legislation addresses a timely issue--the legality of online gaming, specifically pertaining to Internet poker.
There is a point when it goes too far. Simply because we can, doesn't mean we should.
I rise for the purpose of entering into a colloquy with my friend from Utah joining with me. Chairman Goodlatte, I want to thank you for your attention to the very serious problem of patent assertion entities, otherwise known as ``patent…
To that end, the Energy and Commerce subcommittee intends to proceed through regular order, as soon as it is practicable, to examine both the problem of vague patent demand letters and potential solutions the Federal Trade Commission could…
I demand a recorded vote. A recorded vote was ordered. The SPEAKER pro tempore. This is a 5-minute vote. The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--ayes 237, noes 126, answered ``present'' 1, not voting 67, as follows: [Roll…
I am a Tenth Amendment guy. I like to have States have their powers and their rights.
This is really about trust, and people like Andrea from Omaha feels like that trust has been violated. It has been broken. She was told that she could keep her policy, but then she received her letter saying you cannot keep your policy. A…
If the United States cannot supply the type of labor needed to fill these good jobs, these companies may choose to operate in a nation that can.
