Today, I rise to honor the life and legacy of Marie Lorenzini, a beloved leader and devoted public servant from Nyack, New York, whose passing is deeply felt by all who knew her. Marie's service to the village of Nyack spanned decades…

Today I rise to honor the life of Michael Alexander Raimondi, a remarkable young man from Westchester County, who was tragically taken from us far too soon. Michael was a bright and imaginative soul who brought joy to everyone around him…

I ask that all Members join me for a brief moment of silence in honor of Omer Neutra. ____________________

Today, we New Yorkers rise with a heavy heart to honor the memory of Omer Neutra, a 21-year-old from Plainview, New York. A grandson of Holocaust survivors, Omer deferred his enrollment at SUNY Binghamton to serve in the Israeli Defense…

Today I rise to honor the life of Jeremy Emanuel Honey, a lifelong resident of Suffern, New York, who passed away in September at the age of 77. Jeremy was a U.S. Army veteran, serving proudly during the Vietnam war, and at posts including…

On the issue of gun violence in America, I think about New York and the disastrous cashless bail law, which was put into effect and supported by the ranking member and continues to be supported by the ranking member, in which more than 80…

I thank the chairman for yielding. In America, elections are determined at the ballot box, not by an assassin's bullet. In recent months, we have seen two such attempts on the life of former President Donald Trump: first in Pennsylvania…

Today I rise to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Village of Sleepy Hollow. Nestled on the Hudson River just 20 miles north of New York City, the Village of Sleepy Hollow is 5.2 square miles of history and intrigue. Sleepy Hollow…

Today I rise to recognize Detective Tim Hayes and K9 Remy, the first certified electronics detection dog in Rockland County history. Remy is a 1-year-old black lab, named after Welles Remy Crowther, a Nyack native known as the man in the…

I find that rich. I mean, leader Jeffries, along with Nancy Pelosi and Kamala Harris, gaslit the nation for an entire year about Joe Biden's cognitive abilities.

Today, I rise to urge the House to pass my bill, the Remote Access Security Act. The U.S. export control regime exists to limit American critical technology and goods from falling into the hands of adversarial regimes and those who answer…

Our ranking member, Maxine Waters, has made this a big priority for the work that we do in the committee.

Access to safe and affordable housing is essential to the well-being of working families and individuals in North Carolina and around the country.

I would just note that, obviously, CPI, the price of goods, the price of purchasing a home, the price of a mortgage, the cost of a mortgage has been astronomical.

Since you made mention of the independence of the Fed, and I know you pride yourself on that independence, do you acknowledge or do Members of the FOMC acknowledge that a rate cut in September could be viewed as political, just 30 to 60…

I represent a Republican-leaning, very purple district, so my constituents sent me here to get things done.

Access to low- or no-cost banking services is a door to financial inclusion and wealth generation for marginalized families.

I applaud you and your staff at the Federal Reserve for the work that you are doing to make sure that the economy works as well for the hardworking people of Georgia's, 'Fighting Fifth District,' as it does for those in the top 1 percent.

I sent a letter specifically on the SHIP Act and the Iran-China Energy Sanctions Act to you and Secretary of State Blinken a few weeks ago.

Since Joe Biden took office, Iranian oil sales are up over $100 billion, a $100 billion increase.

Engaging in this trade is tantamount to aiding and abetting a terrorist state, and it must end.

Anyone who participates in the sale of Iranian oil plays a role in helping the regime evade U.S. sanctions.

We are supporting a critical program while staying within the confines of the Fiscal Responsibility Act, which this body, this Congress, and this President agreed to. That is what we are seeking to do while supporting the critical mission…

I respect my colleague across the aisle, but to my knowledge, my colleagues across the aisle never offered an amendment to increase funding for the Peace Corps, and this is an amendment that is before us to do just that. We are constrained…

Today, I rise in support of my amendment to increase funding for the Peace Corps. This investment is a commitment to our Nation's values and our role on the global stage, and we should not back away from it. The Peace Corps represents the…
