It needs to pass early. We never know what's going to happen in the Senate.

They say that bipartisanship is dead. Not here and not with my good friend from Pennsylvania.

I urge support for its reauthorization.

If ever a parent or care giver is required to call 911 to get emergency care for a child, they should know their children will receive the medical care they need.

I want to thank Representative Roybal-Allard, who has championed this program since it was first passed more than ten years ago.

We need to invest in programs that support families and children.

I demand a recorded vote. The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from New Jersey will be postponed. Amendment No. 133 Offered by Mr. Buchanan The Acting CHAIR. It…

I appreciate the comments that the gentleman from South Carolina made. I don't mean to speak for his State, but I have to say, I was in Savannah and then went for a couple of days over to Saint Helena island, Hilton Head, and some of the…

May I inquire how much time I have left. The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from New Jersey has 2\1/2\ minutes remaining.

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of division C (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __ None of the funds made…

If we lock in the 2020 standards, we're not getting as much emissions reductions as we otherwise would, and that translates into incrementally less protection of health and the environment.

It is very important, wherever possible, to give us documents, whether it is the request from Ms. DeGette...

I am deeply troubled by EPA's lack of transparency and its disregard for science and the expertise of its career staff.

A month ago, I sent the EPA Administrator a letter highlighting how the Agency rejected its own experts' conclusions that the CAFE rollback will result in increased gas pollution and job losses.

In my opinion, the only ones that support the proposal that the EPA has put forth are oil companies poised to make money from the increased use of fossil fuels.

The only offer the Trump administration made to California was its proposed rule as-is, which would gut the existing standards.

The Trump administration refused to appear today if EPA, NHTSA, and CARB testified on the same panel.

Public health and the environment will also lose.

American manufacturing will also lose--especially automakers, parts suppliers, and workers--as the Trump administration cedes America's competitive edge to other countries that will develop and build the technologies of the future.

That's why yesterday, my committee launched an investigation into a secret social media campaign run by the oil industry that misled the American people about this rollback.

This harmful proposal comes from the same administration that insists the Government should not be in the business of picking winners and losers.

The existing Clean Car Standards were a victory for consumers, manufacturers, and the environment.

If my Republican colleagues are as serious about addressing climate change as they say--they now say they are--they should oppose this disastrous proposal.

The Trump administration, if it gets its way, will undermine those public health protections.

The administration readily admits the rule will lead to increased particle pollution.
