There is no question that we are under attack. There is no question that we are already at war.

I thank Congresswoman Malliotakis for her comments. Yesterday, I was proud to join with Chairman Mark Green of the House Homeland Security Committee to lead a bipartisan delegation down to the 9/11 Memorial and Museum to give our…

We would be lying to ourselves to think that some of them are not going to take the opportunity to vote.

If one person that is not an American citizen has the ability to vote in our election there is a serious problem.

One of the most important things we face is to make sure that our elections are fair and that our elections are secure.

Any time FRA sees that a railroad is gaming the system, is gaming the inspection process that we have, the oversight that we have, we are going to take action on that.

Air traffic controllers are the backbone of our national aviation infrastructure, safeguarding the journey of nearly 100,000 flights per day.

I will continue to support conservation efforts that benefit my constituents, New York at large, and this great Nation. I applaud Congressman LaLota for introducing this legislation, as it is critical to preserving the Long Island that we…

My legislation would authorize up to $10 million in additional funds for the museum to help them continue to tell these critical stories.

To never forget the national resilience this nation witnessed in the days and weeks that followed.

To never forget the heroism of the first responders that ran into the towers to save their fellow man at the cost of their own lives;

Each year for over two decades, our nation has vowed to never forget the friends, the families, the brothers, the sisters, the mothers, the fathers, the daughters, or the sons that we lost that day.

I am extremely sorry for your loss, and remind you that we will never, ever forget.

Thank you very much, Chairman Tiffany and the entire Subcommittee, for taking on this critical legislation today.

The single grant authorized by this bill would provide needed funding to this hallowed site to help ensure that future generations continue to learn the lessons of this tragic historical event in American history.

H.R. 5401 provides a one-time grant--from $5 million to $10 million--from the Department of Homeland Security.

Representative D'Esposito's legislation would provide a one-time grant to support the 9/11 Memorial & Museum in New York City.

Bills sponsored by Representatives D'Esposito and Waltz would support sites that are integral to American history.
