Cory Booker

When we call this environmental injustice, it is painful to me that the folks being harmed by this are disproportionately seeing themselves exposed to hazardous waste and pollution in this data I am showing at 20 percent higher rates of…

There is a reason why you are the Chair. Clearly you have a lot of wisdom.

We also knew Harvey would hit before it did, and we generally know the Gulf Coast is going to continue to face these extreme weather events.

In my opinion, we are in a state of crisis with a lack of urgency to address that crisis.

I was stunned with President Trump's decision to withdraw from a global international dialogue on migration.

The proposal of the administration is to cut the funding to the very programs that reports like this one show are necessary for us to create stability.

I am actually growing more worried that we are relying on our military interventions with the thought that might somehow not only solve the immediate problems but also the longer term causes of radicalization.

I do worry about seeing budgets being proposed from the administration that are slashing a lot of critical programs

I believe that she gave false testimony before the committee.

I intend to offer the following motion to H.R. 1, and I ask unanimous consent that it be printed in the Record. There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in the Record, as follows: Motion to Commit With Instructions…

I have traveled, since I have been on this Committee, to Duplin County, North Carolina, where people who live around CAFOs have alarming rates not just of cancers, but also of respiratory diseases.

So I just really need to understand your position on the urgency of particulate matter and dealing with this environmental justice.

I live in the central ward of Newark and see how challenging the exposure to particulate matter is for children in my city that I was mayor of; asthma rates off the charts.

I find it deeply, deeply concerning your past statements and your inability right now to say for the record that you think there is a crisis in this country with particulate matter and the respiratory diseases that are affecting so many of…

I have this belief--which I don't think is radical--that every American should have access to clean air, clean water, even clean soil to plant in.

Time is of the essence to ensure that consumers' access to health care is not jeopardized

I am a big believer that before someone tells me about their religion, I want to see it in how they treat other people.

You are one of the more inspiring leaders in the United States of America where children will look to you.

I think that this is a valid question and a line of questioning, and you should explain this before folks vote.

Not everybody agreed with your approach, but I commend you for having a vision that, unfortunately, far too long this administration, the previous administration did not have and other administrations did not have either when it comes to…

I sincerely believe Jim Bridenstine could be one of the greatest leaders of the U.S. space program.

Most of us believe John McCain is an American hero.
