Justice is the key, and that is what the United States must continue to demand.

I strongly support your call to not allow Serbia to enter the EU until it cleans up its act.

There is no shame on facing one's past, only honor.

We are here in this committee having an ongoing debate about how hardworking Americans are going to have access to the American Dream and how to keep our booming economy growing so it can continue to deliver opportunities for prosperity to…

Today, I rise in strong support of H.R. 829, my legislation to honor the life and legacy of Army Specialist Thomas J. Wilwerth by renaming, in his name, the post office in his hometown of Mastic, New York. Specialist Thomas Wilwerth always…

Tax day is approaching on April 15, and I again rise to state my support for the State and local tax deduction. There were many positive aspects to the tax bill that I voted against. I support reducing the corporate tax rate, but it should…

I thank Congressman Fitzpatrick for setting his goals with cosponsorship not just high but also appropriately. Every Member of this Chamber should be cosponsoring this bill so, hopefully, we will get those numbers up a lot, but much credit…

Next, I get to introduce an amazing colleague who was here in the Chamber, a Member of Congress, during the attacks on September 11. He was here in the days afterward, the years when the Zadroga Act was still getting passed and…

I thank Congressman Gottheimer for his words and his leadership with what is a bipartisan caucus here in the House of Representatives where people from all across the entire country come together. As the name of the caucus says, you just…

I thank the gentlewoman for her comments. Madam Speaker, next, I am going to yield to my friend from New Jersey (Josh Gottheimer), who is really a leader in so many different forms. He co-chairs the Problem Solvers Caucus. If I had to make…

Let's all be honest with each other. We are here today, right now, because of anti-Semitic rhetoric from one Member of this Chamber said again and again and again. We would not be on this floor right now otherwise to discuss this topic. If…

I thank Congressman Smith for his words tonight and pointing out that special master's report that just came out, which really stresses the urgency to get this done immediately. That is tough and unacceptable news for all those victims to…

I thank the gentleman for his service in the military and for his new service he just started here in the House. I had to throw in the Army, too, knowing that we do have another speaker here who is a Navy helicopter pilot, if I understand…

Mrs. Maloney really inspires us all. And when she said that these 9/11 victims, their families are counting on us, they certainly know that they can count on her. So I thank Congresswoman Maloney for leading this effort for so many years…

Our next speaker tonight also had a distinguished career serving in government before joining Congress. He rose up the ranks at the FBI. He is a very well-respected member of the FBI who believes in law enforcement and the rule of law. He…

I will get back to the gentlewoman in December on that one. We will see if we keep the winning streak going. I thank the gentlewoman again for her service, for her remarks tonight, and for running for office. I look forward to working with…

I thank Chairman Nadler for his remarks tonight and for his leadership through the years. It is a very important voice from New York City, from Ground Zero, and something that couldn't have possibly impacted the heart of his district any…

There is no room for anti-Semitism anywhere in this Chamber. This past January, the House voted nearly unanimously to condemn white supremacy, and it named a Republican Member as we did that. I voted for that. Back in January, around the…

Bipartisanship is something for all of us to be very proud of.

I thank Mr. Barton for yielding the time. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to speak in support of language that was added to the IMPROVE Act that would protect access to critical equipment for individuals with disabilities. In November of 2014…

I thank the gentleman for yielding. Mr. Speaker, I rise to urge passage of my bill, H.R. 6737, the Protect Affordable Mortgages for Veterans Act, which is bipartisan legislation that passed the committee with a unanimous vote of 49-0. This…

I thank the chairman for yielding and for supporting my proposal to require the FAA to reassess the North Shore helicopter route and address the noise impact on affected communities, improve altitude enforcement, and consider alternative…
