The report on HRIT released today by the Government Accountability Office makes clear that after more than a decade of sustained investment in HRIT, the program has provided virtually none of the capabilities that DHS leaders initially…

Is this something that should be uniformly applied across the Department because it ensures consistency and certain standards?

I for one would be very interested in ensuring that we had more contact, more feedback, just so that we help you in your need to make sure that the Department is accountable, being accountable on a more routine basis.

We know that you all do really important work and that this is an important Department, but we also know that there are places like TSA that have internal concerns and threats right now as it relates to employees, credentialing, recovering…

So I really think that we are helpful to you in raising these issues and asking you to come here, because it kind-of keeps the stuff in the forefront of what you are doing.

And I rise in support of H.R. 3584, the Transportation Security Administration Reform and Improvement Act of 2015. Mr. Speaker, I am pleased that H.R. 3584 includes language authored by Ranking Member Bennie Thompson to direct TSA to move…

The RFS is a political lightning rod.

Before I start, let me extend my condolences to those who are mourning the death of our former Congressman. That was 60 minutes' worth of very, very nice tribute. As I am sure all of my colleagues are aware, we are now in primary election…

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Milholland, it has been almost 4 years since the committee launched its investigation of the IRS...

Very quickly, I would like to acknowledge the fact that Congressman John Conyers of the 13th District of Michigan was here and has left a statement, which I will submit, with regard to this issue and the fact that he visited Flint…

So your desire to acquire this drug, for which there was supposedly a problem with access, does that mean that those people who were suffering from--what is it?--infections associated with HIV and AIDS did not have access to it the way…

I thank Mr. Ellison, and I appreciate him taking the time to be here. I yield to the gentleman from Virginia (Mr. Scott).

I thank the gentlewoman very much for not only her eloquent words but the fact that she can speak from her scientific background, being a microbiologist. Absolutely there is science in this issue. Now I yield to the co-chair of the…

Thank you very much, Congresswoman. I now yield to the distinguished lady from New York (Ms. Slaughter).

I think I want to follow up on Mr. Carter's line of questioning, because I think I don't quite understand now.

Thank you very much to the Congresswoman. Madam Speaker, could you tell me how much time I have left. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentlewoman has 7 minutes remaining.

Your company has a very bad physical, public image right now, if you care to know that.

The city of Flint, Michigan, has been hit by a crisis of massive proportion. Its impact on the long-term health and future success of its residents remains unclear. The fact I find most disturbing is that it is a completely manmade crisis…

How are we to believe that?

I would like to thank the Congresswoman. Another very strong and strident voice on behalf of all the citizens in the State of Michigan, and particularly with regard to the issue confronting our victims, the citizens as well as the city…

We are particularly grateful for both Representative Kildee and Representative Lawrence for having elevated this discussion to the point that we are giving it serious consideration. I yield to the gentlewoman from Michigan (Mrs. Lawrence)…

I thank the gentleman for yielding. Mr. Speaker, I had no idea that my colleagues on the other side of the aisle were such great fans of the movie ``Groundhog Day.'' If I had a little more time right now, I would give the exact same speech…

Mr. Ambrose called the effort by the city council to stop using Flint River water, and I quote, 'incomprehensible.'

The problem is that Flint was still under the control of the emergency manager, Jerry Ambrose in this case.

I thank the gentlewoman from Texas for her leadership and her commitment to every child in this country. I yield to my colleague from Virginia (Mr. Scott), who is ever vigilant and diligent as it relates to preparing, educating, and…
