The past 14 months have been overwhelming. Families across this country are struggling to make ends meet.

I am a big fan of the project Brightline West. I have been working to try to get some kind of speed train, passenger train service between here and Los Angeles for many years.

I just think it is almost ridiculous to have a Blue Ribbon Panel to look at the personnel system when you don't have any representation from labor.

Pay is their No. 1 issue. I am listening to them every single day, and so many of them barely make ends meet because of that.

Had we had a union presence that was really talking about, you know, how we can make a safer workplace...

Unions help people get in the middle class and stay in the middle class.

Be sure you keep us up to date with your E-BRIDGE bill, so we can build some of that into our reauthorization.

I think flexibility is important, and I have been getting questions about the confusion: can it be used to promote, or advertise, or build infrastructure?

I look forward to working with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle on this comprehensive EDA reauthorization that will build on its successes, and promote sustainable and equitable economic development in communities of all sizes…

I believe the EDA can play a vital role in helping diversify the economies in places like Las Vegas, that have been so dependent on travel and tourism, so we can better manage the next pandemic.

I am glad some people in the States were able to make up for the lack of leadership at the Federal level.

I just wonder if the last 4 years of negligence and insult and rolling back of things has made the world skeptical of what the United States is really willing to do.

I have got a bill called Enhancing Child Passenger Safety in Underserved Communities.

It is a pleasure to welcome you to the committee, and I hope that soon I will be able to host you again here in Las Vegas.

Congress enacted the War Powers Resolution basically for three reasons: to take back power that it had lost as an institution to the executive, going back to World War II and FDR's New Deal; tying Nixon's hands, and reassure the public…

We are trying to be the best stewards of taxpayer money.

I think we have our work cut out for us, but we have some common goals here

Chairwoman Titus and Ranking Member Webster are to be commended for leading the committee in prioritizing this initial hearing on mitigation and resilience investments to address the rising costs and losses associated with disasters.

I look forward to all of our witnesses' and Members' perspectives, and working with Ranking Member Webster and our colleagues to advance future legislative efforts out of this subcommittee to provide FEMA the resources and tools needed to…

Those updated building codes are one example of a cost-effective mitigation strategy.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency is perhaps responsible for the most significant amount of dedicated funding...

Our Subcommittee has the distinction of being the most productive of any under Transportation and Infrastructure...

I look forward to all of our witnesses' and our Members' perspectives, and working with Ranking Member Webster...

Together, we can help save the lives and property of our citizens.

I support President Biden's efforts to invest in this, and his goal of a half a million new charging stations.
