How you can use the 10th Amendment argument to say that Federal regulation gives you more states' rights is kind of jabberwocky to me.

I have been pretty astounded that Mr. Campbell could come representing the FBI... and not be able to cite a single case.

I am concerned that this practice of moving people into jobs with less responsibility but the same amount of money is occurring at other levels as well.

We are just moving around the deck chairs. We are not saving the ship, I am afraid.

I think some of those veterans are going to the private sector not because they want to but because they have to

I have no further speakers at this time. So I would just simply urge my colleagues to support passage of the Ruth Moore Act of 2015, H.R. 1607, as amended, and to provide support to the victims of MST who have so bravely served our Nation…

I have no further requests for time. I simply urge my colleagues to support the passage of H.R. 675, as amended. I yield back the balance of my time.

Sheriff Ralph Lamb, who passed away on July 3, was one of those larger than life characters who dot the landscape and lore of the Old West. A rancher from humble Mormon beginnings, he embodied the independent cowboy spirit. He was John…

They deserve the opportunity to be buried in a national cemetery.

It is time that we gave them this recognition.

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will report the amendment. The Clerk read as follows: Page 45, line 15, after the dollar amount, insert ``(reduced by $1,000,000) (increased by $1,000,000)''. The Acting CHAIR…

This amendment is about standing up for states' rights and protecting businesses, doctors, and patients who are acting legally under the medical marijuana laws of some 41 States and territories, including Nevada. Congress needs to catch up…

Why are we debating an extension of the surface transportation authorization instead of doing the right thing and passing a bill that invests in our future? We should be playing the long game, not betting on the come, as they say in…

I support H.R. 91, as amended, and I urge my colleagues to do the same. I yield back the balance of my time.

I strongly support H.R. 1382, and I urge my colleagues to do the same. I don't have any additional speakers, so I yield back the balance of my time.

I urge my colleagues to support H.R. 1313, to ensure that our service-connected disabled-veteran small-business owners are able to leave a legacy for their families and coworkers when they pass away. At this point, I don't have any other…

I commend Mr. Costello for his work on this bill. I urge my colleagues to support H.R. 1038 and to work with all of us to make sure going forward that the intent of the bill is accurately realized. I yield back the balance of my time.

I, too, urge my colleagues to support H.R. 474. It is a good bill that will reauthorize and clarify the Homeless Veterans' Reintegration Program, and I yield back the balance of my time.

So instead of having the DOD at the table to evaluate and inform the monument creation process on a case-by-case basis, this provision would grant a virtual veto over any future designations. Mr. Chairman, as this legislation moves…

I appreciate the comments made by my colleague, but he does not address the points I make about how this amendment looks at provisions of the bill that are contrary to the new proposal. I urge a ``no'' vote. There is no point in throwing…

So I would say, Madam Chairman, instead of wasting tens of millions of dollars more on an unworkable solution, let's, instead, meet our fiduciary obligations to future generations. At the same time, let us commit to moving forward on a new…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will report the amendment. The Clerk read as follows: Page 25, line 13, after the dollar amount, insert ``(reduced by $150,000,000)''. Page 57, line 11, after the dollar amount…

I thank the gentleman for yielding. I want to say, very simply, that we shortchange our veterans if we don't give them the opportunity to have every possible medical treatment that is out there. We know that certain States have legalized…

I just want to close by asking my other colleagues to support this amendment so we can send a strong message to our female veterans that the U.S. Congress is committed to ensuring that the VA is meeting their unique needs. It is critical…

I rise to offer an amendment. It is at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will report the amendment. The Clerk read as follows: Page 30, line 15, after the first dollar amount, insert ``(reduced by $500,000) (increased by $500,000)''…
