I thank the gentlewoman from Michigan for yielding me this time. Before I begin, I want to thank my colleague, Ranking Member Lawrence, for her support on the Interior Subcommittee as well as the full committee, Ranking Member Cummings and…
I will be brief. I just wanted to take an opportunity, especially from this side of the aisle, to hear from someone who worked with Mike, who had great admiration for him, and that is myself. When I was a young man, elected at 36 years of…
If I were to stand here today and read an agenda on attacks on immigrants, Muslims, women, and families living in poverty and even the judicial system, you might think it was the campaign platform for the Republican candidate for…
It is not exaggerating to say the future of our health care system depends on just that.
Unfortunately, growing numbers of smart, well-prepared medical school graduates are fighting for a stagnant number of residency slots.
This is not something we could take lightly. Estimates indicate that by 2025 we will have a shortage of up to 95,000 doctors.
The key job of this committee is to determine wrongs or injustices and use all of our abilities address those wrongs and injustices.
Yesterday, Mr. Roskam and I, Chairman Roskam and I, introduced bipartisan legislation to fix the law and prevent the seizures of bank accounts of law-abiding citizens.
Well, Mr. Chairman, I think, if that is the case, we should inquire as to how we can access that information.
no citizen or noncitizen should ever been treated differently because their voices were heard.
What I would suggest, again, is we'll get to the bottom of this and see to it that those moneys are restored to their rightful place with the citizen of the United States.
I appreciate especially Mr. Smith's last question, because I think that pertains to two of the witnesses...
Yield myself such time as I may consume. We all agree that the IRS faces serious consumer service challenges and needs to be more responsive to the American taxpayer, but this bill is not a serious attempt at oversight of the IRS. In fact…
I would inquire how much time is remaining on both sides. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from New York has 24\1/2\ minutes remaining. The gentlewoman from South Dakota has 15\1/2\ minutes remaining.
I yield myself an additional 15 seconds. Mr. Speaker, we are not having a hearing on this. We are not doing anything here on the floor to address this issue. Instead, we are taking up issues that, quite frankly, could have been on the…
I would suggest our time be better spent on a hearing discussing the impact of the budget cuts on customers and consumers and the services at the IRS.
What happens, or what is university life like, or what can it be like if it dissolves into--if it devolves into political correctness, the type of political correctness where faculty is intimidated, students are intimidated, and it is not…
Georgetown University isn't bound by the First Amendment, but they are, on their own initiative, revising their policies to ensure full inclusivity for all of their students.
the First Amendment prohibits colleges and universities from restricting speech, the First Amendment generally does not apply at private colleges and universities
What we are seeing today, in my opinion, is this Subcommittee is really searching for a problem where no problem exists.
Georgetown University also has been working with the aggrieved parties in this particular case being discussed today in an attempt to resolve their differences.
This Subcommittee should be praising Georgetown University for their actions, and not bashing the Nation's preeminent Catholic institution of higher learning.
a thousand people a day coming to Florida, 998 I think are coming from New York.
