the issue of trade has remained contentious over the years. I believe in the ideals of free trade but it must also be fair trade. We have to take a close look at each agreement and weigh them on their individual merits. If the President…
once again I thank my great friend from the State of California for yielding me this time. Madam Speaker, I rise to speak out in strong support of a democratic nation under attack by terrorists, a nation that has been under attack every…
I thought we were going to start this debate this evening to talk seriously about the problems we are facing in Iraq and begin to talk about our constitutional oversight powers to begin to address this situation. I was wrong. The American…
I object for the purposes of claiming the time in opposition. The CHAIRMAN. Objection is heard. The gentlewoman reserves the balance of her time.
I rise for the purpose of addressing the schedule with the majority leader for next week. I yield to the gentleman.

If I can, I just have one last question. In reference to the work that is being engaged on right now on developing the language for the resolution on Iraq, is that being done in a bipartisan way? Are ranking members on those committees…
How much total time do you expect will be allotted for debate on the Iraq resolution you referenced previously? And which days are you anticipating the debate will take place? And will ranking members and leadership be included in…
I thank the gentlewoman, and my friend and mentor, from New York for yielding me this time; and I want to thank her and Chairman Kolbe, another good friend, on another good bill coming out of this committee and proving once again, when it…
I did not hear any mention when my colleague from New York spoke as to how much the fuel needs of New York would be met if ANWR were allowed to go through. I suggest that it probably would be somewhere in the range of 10 years, maybe. What…
Just a lot of things don't add up. And, she was an experienced navigator. And just a lot of things are unanswered, unanswered questions.
I rise to lament the wrecking of a solid, bipartisan bill that, at one time, both established a tough new regulator for our Nation's secondary mortgage market and created a new national housing trust to build affordable housing. Our…
I oppose this rule, and I oppose this overreaching bill. A lot of people on the other side of the aisle are trying to claim that caps on awards for victims of medical malpractice will help doctors. Some are claiming that caps on awards…
on the morning of Thursday, July 21, 2005, this morning, I was not in Washington due to personal business and was therefore unable to vote. If I were here, I would have voted ``no'' on rollcall vote 401; and ``no'' on rollcall vote 402…
on Monday, July 18, 2005, I was not in Washington due to weather delays that stranded my flight and therefore I was unable to vote. If I were here, I would like the Record to reflect I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall vote 380, ``yes''…
it is not clear to me. It is again unfortunate we find ourselves here at this point. And I stand, again, in opposition to this amendment.

I am proud to speak in strong support of the resolution today honoring the 57th anniversary of the Independence of the State Israel. I congratulate the people of the State of Israel and the greater Jewish community on the 57th anniversary…
the extreme action Senate Republicans want to take later this week has nothing to do with seven judges who have yet to be approved by the Senate. No, the Senate has approved more of President Bush's nominees than any President since…
we all know about the axis of evil. Iran and North Korea's pursuit of nuclear weapons is frightening, and we need to do everything we can do to stop it. But now there is a new axis of evil, apparently, and it starts right here in…
while I have problems with the concept of this supplemental and supplementals, and the misplaced budget priorities of the Republican Party, this bill, I believe, is needed for our men and women who are fighting the war on terrorism. This…
I rise in support of the Scott amendment and in opposition to H.R. 748. I commend the work of my colleagues, the gentlewoman from New York (Ms. Slaughter) and the gentlewoman from Colorado (Ms. DeGette) in the work on this bill as well…
