The Public Record
Joseph Crowley is a former Democratic member of the U.S. House of Representatives, representing New York's 14th congressional district from 2013 until 2019. Prior to that, he served New York's 7th congressional district from 1999 to 2013. Crowley was known for his work on issues such as healthcare, education, and economic development. He held various leadership positions within the Democratic Party, including serving as the chair of the Democratic Caucus in the House. In 2018, he was defeated in a primary election by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, which marked a significant shift in the political landscape of the district.
The contrast between Republicans and Democrats could never be more clearer than it is right now. Republicans continue to want to protect corporate America, and Democrats want to protect, average, hardworking middle class Americans. That is…
I thank my friend, Mr. Levin, for yielding me this time. Mr. Speaker, when I go home, I often hear people who are disillusioned with politics in America. Some even say that they don't really see a difference between Democrats and…
It is just another attempt to try to smear, I think, the Affordable Care Act.
But what is the ultimate price here for the criminal? Is it a free colonoscopy?
So it appears as though you have operated a very sophisticated criminal operation here, not that your intention is criminal.
I see that my colleagues once again on the other side of the aisle are using this as an opportunity, I think, to exploit their dislike of the Affordable Care Act.
I would just add for the record that 52 times my colleagues on the other side of the aisle have voted to repeal the Affordable Care Act, 52 times.
More people are getting coverage, as my colleague from Georgia has said, and they are liking it.
My amendment--and I say this in anticipation and hope that the Chair and the gentleman from Florida doesn't think I am tampering. Tampering has a very negative connotation to it. What I would like to think we are doing is legislating…
I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will report the amendment. The Clerk read as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. The amounts otherwise provided by this Act…
I want to thank you for your service. Thank you for your patience, and I want to apologize to you for the way you have been treated this morning.
Anything else would show that this committee is not using its time and resources seriously.
The Democrats on this committee have been outraged... We are angered by any singling out of any tax-exempt application based on ideology.
Put the shoe on the other foot. When Democrats were investigating the lies and the incompetence of the Bush administration, we would be in disbelief at this ineptitude as well.
Do you think American taxpayers would be upset to know that this phony investigation has already cost them over $16 million?
Today, June 12, 2014 I missed a recorded vote, rollcall No. 308, the motion to recommit H.R. 4457. I would have voted ``yes'' on this measure.
The more data that comes out, the more stories we hear of people getting coverage, the more we can ensure the ACA is working.
It is unbelievable in many respects to me that my colleagues are willing to say and do just about anything to tarnish the Affordable Care Act and undermine access to health care in this country.
I will speak up in a pretty loud tone when my constituents and hardworking Americans across the country are being targeted for baseless attacks.
What's shocking to me is all the fake outrage from my colleagues on the other side of the aisle about this reconciliation process when they have voted time and again to make this process harder on working families.
the Affordable Care Act has taken some very important steps that are long overdue, and in the process, it is also doing something about health care costs.
