A member of the Democratic Party, he previously represented New York's 8th congressional district from 1992 to 2013.

He has played a significant role in various legislative efforts and has been an outspoken advocate for progressive policies.
Before recognizing the next speaker, let me also point out that this resolution also claims that progressive politicians actively encourage resentment toward local law enforcement. When we tried to remove such misleading claims during the…
I claim the time in opposition, although I do not oppose the amendment. The Acting CHAIR. Without objection, the gentleman from New York is recognized for 5 minutes. There was no objection.
The gentleman from New York referenced our District Attorney Alvin Bragg. As a resident of Manhattan, I must say that I find Alvin Bragg a perfectly fine district attorney, and he is being attacked only because he has secured indictments…
I demand a recorded vote. The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Montana will be postponed.
The provision that the gentleman refers to refers only to machine guns. It does not exclude other firearms, as I mentioned, such as short-barreled rifles and even grenade launchers, and these are too dangerous. We should not be selling…
The gentleman is mistaken. There is a difference between the officer and the gun. The gun is being retired. The officer may have committed a felony--the ex-officer, I should say, may have committed a felony, may have been forced out for…

Yesterday, some of us were privileged to attend a briefing by Sam Altman on generative AI.
Mr. Chair, I believe today's hearing is a wasteful and ultimately irresponsible use of this Subcommittee's time.
Let me be clear. Democrats stand with the majority of the American public and will always oppose such a radical position.
I should be astonished, but I am not, that the Chair of the Committee would quote from the discredited Durham Report.
On that I demand the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays were ordered. This will be a 5-minute vote. The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 219, nays 213, not voting 3, as follows: [Roll No. 209] YEAS--219 Aderholt…
I now yield 3 minutes to the distinguished gentlewoman from Florida (Ms. Wasserman Schultz).
When I hear the rhetoric on the other side, it is one of the very few times I say to myself: Thank God for the existence of the United States Senate. Mr. Speaker, I yield 5 minutes to the gentlewoman from Washington (Ms. Jayapal).
There were 3.4 million queries of this data base and 30 percent of those were in error.
I, myself, have never voted to reauthorize Section 702, but I recognize that these authorities are also important to national security especially in today's threat environment.
