It is not unusual for Congresswoman Demings to lead and bring us together. I want to congratulate and thank her for her service in the past and now. Mr. Speaker, during this devastating pandemic, our Nation's law enforcement officers have…

I want to state for the Record that, on April 15, 2021, I missed four roll call votes. Had I been present, I would have voted: yes--Roll Call Vote 113--on motion to suspend the rules and pass H.R. 1899; yes--Roll Call Vote 114--on motion…

It is time we reinstate SALT, and actually give people in my State a real tax cut for middle-class families.

We are sick and tired of picking up the tab for 'moocher' States.

This is New York mooching off New Jersey to solve their own problems.

It is dead wrong that New Jerseyans and all who travel on the Northeast Corridor have been forced to traverse a bridge dating back to President Taft, and we won't stand for it.

My second bill, Miranda's Law, named after Miranda Vargas, who was killed in a school bus crash in my district, will ensure that schools see red flags from dangerous bus drivers in real-time--to help remove dangerous school bus drivers…

I call it the Manhattan Moocher Congestion Tax.

We absolutely need to reinstate our State and Local Tax deduction, which was disastrously capped in the 2017 Tax Hike Bill, driving up taxes for families in every county in my District and driving families out of New Jersey.

Our roads are aging, our bridges are crumbling, and our railways are congested.

I want to state that on March 18, 2021, I missed one rollcall vote. Had I been present, I would have voted: ``Yes''--rollcall vote 90--Motion to Recommit on H.R. 6. Members recorded pursuant to house resolution 8, 117th congress Allred…

A lot of people are waiting to get this done today. It is up to us to help Americans who can't buy their groceries or pay their rent and are not in prison. It is up to us to protect seniors in nursing homes. It is up to us to ensure that…

Stated simply, men and women who would act to tear the United States government apart cannot serve as members of Congress.

This lawsuit seeks to obliterate public confidence in our democratic system, and that those who signed are committing unbecoming acts that reflect fully in our chamber.

Mr. Rettig, you admitted in a recent report that the IRS audits low-income taxpayers disproportionately over wealthy tax cheats because it's easy to pick on regular Americans.

This is exactly why we wanted you to come before the Ways and Means Committee.

To begin to restore this trust, you must fulfill the Ways and Means Committee's legally binding request for the President's tax returns.

The recent revelations of the President's lifetime of tax abuse and malfeasance threatens public confidence in the IRS.

The Postal Service is sounding the alarm about vote by mail for this election.

We simply cannot be polite to corruption. I don't know any other way to say it. And when you heard this in the beginning of the campaign, this is for the soul of America. That is not an exaggeration. This is on point.

I congratulate the chairman. I know he has worked hard on this for many moons, and he deserves it. He earned it. Mr. Speaker, 64 years ago this week, Dwight Eisenhower signed into law the Interstate Highway System. The roads, the bridges…

``The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice,'' Martin Luther King said. I want to thank Chairwoman Bass, Chairman Nadler, and Senator Booker for their leadership on this landmark piece of legislation. We stand here…

I rise for our first responders who are risking their lives and the lives of their families. They go to work every day to fight this virus. They need our help. I am proud to join Chairman Nadler, Congressman Max Rose, and others in support…

Investing in communities like Pajaro is not only the right thing to do--the investment is worth it.

For my communities on the Central Coast, this is personal.
