amendment No. 167 is a side-by-side. This amendment makes good on two promises to the American people. One is to repeal ObamaCare, which has increased costs, limited health care choices, and has raised $1.1 trillion in taxes on the…

pursuant to section 904 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 and the waiver provisions of applicable budget resolutions, I move to waive all applicable sections of that act and applicable budget resolutions for the purposes of my…

Mr. Chairman, thank you. And to the Ranking Member, I have to tell you, Mr. Chairman, I'm impressed with the size of your Committee.

Will you help us in securing the resources that are necessary in order to not only grow this designated freeway between Phoenix and Las Vegas?

it has been decades since we've actually designated a future highway here in this country.

Can we get your commitment that we can try to overcome some of the shackles that we find through this difficult project as we move forward?

one of the most important constitutional functions, of course, is the creation of infrastructure.

We're not talking just the 290 miles between Phoenix and Las Vegas, but an additional 400 miles to get it to the northern end of the state.

we have two cities that are 290 miles apart, and these are the two largest cities in the country today in the Southwest that do not have a freeway between them.

Nevada is a microcosm of the challenges and the opportunities before the Department of Transportation in the coming decade.

What I'm trying to hope is that this idea, this project, moving forward would actually be a model for the rest of the Nation.

as we approach the end of this Congress, I rise to discuss not only what we have accomplished in this Chamber but also specifically what we have accomplished for the State of Nevada. I am especially proud that many of my priorities have…

I stand in front of you to commemorate the long life and service of a fellow Nevadan who has given his all to serve our State and this country. It has been said it is better to be feared than loved if you cannot be both. My colleagues in…

I think it's important for us to make sure that they can be confident in that online marketplace.

I certainly do appreciate it.

The actions of some Wells Fargo employees directly took money from Americans' pockets in order to artificially inflate company quotas.

Trust to some is the center point of any relationship with a business, and I assume it is the same that Wells Fargo has broken that trust.

Accountability and reform in putting your customers' interests first should be Wells Fargo's top priority.

For years, the people of Nevada have struggled to regain what they lost in the aftermath of the housing crisis, and we all know that this housing crisis was caused by greed and excess.

I rise in support of the Heller-Heinrich amendment No. 4981. Mr. President, with your experience in the West, you know water is the lifeblood of our economy and culture. Without water, our communities cannot grow. Improving the rural water…

I want to thank you and the Ranking Member for your work and efforts on behalf of this Committee.

I rise to speak today on an issue that Congress has always been able to rally around with bipartisan support. We don't hear that mentioned a lot recently in these Chambers, but something we have always been able to come together on is our…

transparency is the difference between the FTC and the FCC

We do have an answer to all this, and we actually saw this in this committee. We've already passed out the FCC Reform Act.
