Unfortunately, right now we’re playing defense, not offense, and it will be so nice when that turns back,
We try to impress on people that more deaths are caused by extreme heat than by flooding and tornadoes and hurricanes all together,
It’s so important to recognize extreme heat as a national disaster, and it’s getting worse. As climate change comes, this is not going away, it’s going to get worse,
I just want to thank Mr. Mast and Mr. Joyce for their leadership on this issue. Our veterans sacrifice everything for our country. We don't leave them behind on the field, and we shouldn't leave them behind when they come home. One way…
I rise to urge passage of my FAIR BET Act. The Republican's Triple B overturned a half-century tax provision that allowed gamblers to deduct 100 percent of their losses from their winnings. Accordingly, because that has been eliminated…
It’s just really not good policy to have you paying taxes on phantom money that you didn’t earn.

I want to be clear: I am not advocating for FEMA to approve any particular building code, but rather for there to be greater consideration of all building codes that have a basis in research, expert scrutiny, and application to State and…
The incentives and funding provided by the DRRA are critical since 35 States have not adopted modern building codes.
Even before FEMA's creation, building codes have played a role in disaster assistance and recovery.
It's apparent that as a result there are numerous vulnerabilities that need to be addressed.
Ensuring the FPS has the resources it needs to keep people and property secure, while facing a wide range of threats, is critical to keeping our government functioning.
Among my many concerns is that, even though the FPS has sent thousands of these assessments to Federal agencies, many of their recommendations have just been ignored.
Ensuring that you have the resources you need to keep people and property safe and secure while you are facing a wider range and growing number of threats is really critical to keeping our Government functioning and serving the public.
It is very important to talk about the Federal Protective Service and all that they do to keep us safe in our Federal buildings.
The passage of that foreign agent act just shows not only the political influence that Russia is having in Georgia...
