That is why, precisely the reasons you stated, why we have the Fair Play Fair Pay Act and the pre-'72 provisions of the CLASSICS Act and the Fair Play Fair Pay Act, and we are not forgetting them.

We have caused the wages of workers to remain with us since 1972, so maybe that should guide us a little as we consider some of this legislation.

I have long argued that we need to create a uniform system that levels the playing field for all radio services and ensures fair payment for all artists regardless of when the music was recorded or on what medium it is played.

I introduced the bipartisan Fair Play Fair Pay Act, H.R. 1836, in case anyone is interested, along with several of my colleagues who are here today.

Thankfully, there appears to be growing agreement around a number of issues that give us reason to hope that Congress may be able to move toward a legislative solution.

Any responsible effort to authorize section 702 must pass three tests: It must include a meaningful warrant requirement; It must end the ``abouts'' collection until Congress says otherwise; and It must not restrict the government's ability…

Many of us are opposing this bill and supporting the amendment because it is very different from the Judiciary Committee bill that we reported, which was a good bill. Mr. Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Rhode Island (Mr…

I totally agree with the chairman in his observations on 702 and on the distinctions we made in our bill between national security and counterintelligence operations on the one hand, investigations of domestic crimes on the other.

We are looking for leaders who can supply some moral authority to lead this country.

As a candidate, he denigrated women, characterized immigrants as rapists, and openly mocked the disabled.

I cannot help but look to a President who has tacitly, and sometimes explicitly, created an environment that is more hostile to the most vulnerable among us.

I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of H.R. 3731. This bill would raise the cap on overtime pay for Secret Service agents through next year. These agents pursue the unique dual role of the Secret Service…

Nationwide injunctions are a sometimes imperfect but often essential equitable remedy in the Federal courts.

I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. Mr. Speaker, I rise in strong support of the Law Enforcement Mental Health and Wellness Act. This bill would take a number of steps to help protect the mental well-being of those who take extraordinary…

I thank the gentleman for yielding, and I thank him for organizing this Special Order on this terrible Republican tax scam. This scam is a desperate, disgraceful attempt to line the pockets of the wealthiest Americans and corporations at…

I believe the proper thing for me to do would be to recuse myself from any questions involving these kinds of investigations that involve Secretary Clinton.

The Republicans are scamming America. They are offering a facade of lowered taxes that you probably will never see in exchange for massive and permanent tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans and corporations. And for what? We are told the…

Not every Jewish group supports this bill.

All the toxins in the air were below tolerable levels, they were all OK, and everybody was going to be fine, and thousands of people are sick and hundreds of people are dead because they weren't fine.

Drinking water with the solvents which include tetrachloroethylene and trichloroethylene can have serious health impacts, including damage to the liver and increasing risk of cancer.

That is troubling, because it adds to the confusion, secrecy, and distrust of Government sources.

I am greatly concerned about EPA's response to Hurricane Maria.

I want to share one last thought before closing. In our markup of this bill, the gentleman from California (Mr. Swalwell) had this to say about a recent experience in the Intelligence Committee: ``We had interviewed a witness just 2 weeks…

I thank the gentlemen for yielding the time to me. Madam Speaker, more than 40 years ago, the Supreme Court held that women have the constitutional right to terminate a pregnancy prior to viability or at any time to protect the life and…

This flawed premise should be dispensed with, as Chair Nadler himself said during an October 2017 immigration bill markup.
