Mr. Speaker, once again, I rise in strong opposition to this bill. I heard what the previous speaker said, and this rehashes the same thing that we discussed with some of the bills that were voted on yesterday, which is this notion that…
Mr. Speaker, I once again rise in strong opposition to this bill. I have to say that I keep hearing from my Republican colleagues about permitting reform. In fact, they have been calling this permitting week here in the House. The reality…
Mr. Speaker, let me say I have great respect for the sponsor of this bill, the gentleman from North Carolina, but I can't believe that he raised the issue of electricity prices in the context of this bill. The bottom line is that…
while I have grave concerns about the Department of Energy's ability to carry out and execute on the studies and reports required by this bill, if we are going to ask them to do those studies, then I think this addition is harmless. I…
Mr. Chair, I find it deeply ironic that congressional Republicans are supportive of a study to assess matters impacting the supply chain for the power sector, yet remain completely silent on the Trump administration policies that are…
I rise to object to the Trump administration and congressional Republicans' disastrous energy policies and their impacts on everyday Americans. We have a duty to ensure that our power grid can keep the lights on. That demands an…
listening to my colleagues on the Republican side of the aisle, this report obviously does absolutely nothing to address the prices of power and electricity that continues to go up. Mr. Speaker, I include in the Record a document from the…
last year, as I think everyone knows, President Donald Trump repeatedly promised that energy bills across the country would be cut in half within 12 months of his taking office. This shows a State-by-State analysis of how much electricity…
Mr. Speaker, I respect the chairman of our committee so much. The last time he spoke, he said that we need the world energy price to come down. What about the price here in the United States? The price is higher in the rest of the world…
I will mention to my colleagues on the other side that the Biden administration did not ban LNG exports. There was a pause because they were concerned about the public interest, in particular, because the price was increasing for power…
I urge President Trump and my Republican colleagues to start taking the American affordability crisis seriously. President Trump is simply out of touch with the reality that American families are facing. Earlier this week, he seemed to…
my point is that this report does not ask the people that are doing it to look into the change of law that would be necessary in order to bring refineries back. The reason why we lost so many refineries, particularly on the East Coast and…
Mr. Speaker, I hear my colleagues on the other side of the aisle, the Republicans, talk about the demand for LNG in Europe and how we are not giving Europe or other allies enough LNG. The fact of the matter is that we are sending more LNG…
I am opposed to this bill. President Trump and congressional Republicans have created a healthcare crisis and waged a war on the American healthcare system. On the 4th of July, President Trump celebrated our Nation's birthday by signing…
President Trump and his EPA administrator are now pretending that climate pollution does not endanger human health or the environment — not because there is any scientific justification, but because it helps line the pockets of their…
This big, ugly bill doesn't change that. It's disturbing to see Trump hijack a public institution to push blatant misinformation.
This email went to every Social Security subscriber and every word of it is a lie. Social Security benefits are still taxed. This big, ugly bill doesn’t change that.
this is the most shameful bill that I have ever seen. It takes healthcare away from 17 million people in order to give giant tax breaks to billionaires and large corporate interests. The increase in uncompensated care will force hospitals…
It is the cruelest bill that I've ever seen in my tenure in the House of Representatives.
You have made a number of major decisions about vaccines. And … there’s been no public comment process or public accountability on that either. What are you afraid of?
The bottom line is here: We have no transparency. ... You feel no responsibility to Congress whatsoever, and you just continue this ideology that’s anti-science, anti-vaccine.
I know in my district that foreign direct investment is important in creating jobs. I would certainly say that nationally this is an important piece of legislation. For that reason, I urge my colleagues to support it.
Mr. Speaker, the chairman of our committee knows I have great respect for him, but the bottom line is that this bill does not consider individual circumstances. It is not just people that are selling drugs. Look, I totally agree that if…
this letter is in strong opposition to the Trump administration's efforts to eliminate SAMHSA, as well as their reference to drastically cut funding and eliminate critical SAMHSA programs. As they write in this letter: These proposals…
