Mr. Speaker, there is a difference between deliberation and dilatory tactics. Sadly, this Justice Department, in deciding to decide to perhaps one day to decide if there should be independent counsel to check into the alleged wrongdoing of…

The Public Record
I would simply hearken back to one of the most poignant and pointed observations ever made in this city just down The Mall when Dr. King came here in the early 1960's and dreamed of an America where his children would be judged not by the…
it is with a deep sense of loss and great sadness that I come to the floor of the House this evening to acknowledge the tragic and senseless death of a young man I knew well. Scott McCabe served in the district office of the Sixth District…
to be certain, campaign finance questions are important, but family finance questions should come first. Mr. Speaker, today on the floor of this House we will take an important step to ensure that American families keep more of their…
I know it is difficult for professional politicians to do this, but I would challenge Members on both sides who are career office holders to leave the spin cycle in the laundry room. The fact is it is time, Mr. Speaker, for straight talk…
I do not believe it is a national disgrace to allow hard working people to hang onto more of their own money and send less here to Washington. I do not believe it is a national disgrace to allow for the reduction in the overall growth of…
Mr. Speaker, it is difficult at times for a career politician to go do this, but I would ask all of us to leave the spin cycle in the laundry room. The fact is historians and the American people will judge us on how we arrived at this…
I come down to speak on behalf of this legislation because of the many positive effects we will see, not only, although goodness knows it is important enough to balance the budget for the first time in a generation, not only because we…
Are there concerns we should all have with campaign finance laws? Absolutely. But paramount today is the subject of financing for the family and making sure that American families hang onto more of their own money and send less of it to…
Mr. Chairman, I claim this time for purposes of entering into a colloquy with the distinguished chairman, the gentleman from Florida, of the Subcommittee on National Defense. I would like to bring the DRAGONFLY program to the gentleman's…
it was good to be back home in the Sixth District of Arizona last week, being outside of the beltway and all of the speculation and all the imagined conversation, and to talk to honest to goodness Americans and Arizonans, people who are…
I think this points out the fundamental difference between our two major parties. Indeed, to echo the comments of my colleague from California, sadly, sadly so many of our friends on the other side are unalterably opposed to the American…
I must tell you today, Mr. Chairman, that listening to the gentleman from Massachusetts, I am reminded that liberals say the darndest things. Let us say it as it really has been. The gentleman from Massachusetts talks about a house of…
It is tragic, in a sense, to come to the floor of this House and hear such extreme, shrill and, yes, I am saddened to say, false rhetoric from liberals who constantly apologize for expansion of government and higher taxes for the American…
I again just want to comment on my colleague from Wisconsin making this very practical common sense point. How do you offer a tax cut to those who pay no taxes, and, Mr. Speaker, although there are those who might misunderstand, this is…
People work hard for the money they earn. They ought to hang onto more of it, send less of it here to Washington D.C., and in the process as we prepare for a new century we ought to focus on the notion of transferring money, power and…
As my colleague offers this scenario, I concur wholeheartedly. I also salute my colleague because, again, the temptation is when you come to this town, and obviously there are some philosophical differences, I find that many of us can…
If my colleague will yield further, again that points to one of our other aims as there have been changes in this Congress as we rethink the future, and that is the notion of transferring the money, power, and influence out of the hands of…
And that is the basic common wisdom of those who involve themselves in the process, not to get caught up in micro or macro economics, but simply to provide for their families, to answer the call to duty, whether it is found in wearing the…
I rise this morning mindful of the fact that this is a special day in American history. For one-half century and 3 years ago on this date, the largest amphibious assault in the history of warfare occurred on the shores of Normandy…
To help people get everything they can get in terms of their own livelihoods, their own ambitions----
I daily give thanks for this institution where we are free to express different ideas and opinions. It is worth noting that my distinguished colleague from Texas offered precisely that: Her opinion based on spurious facts, claiming damage…
I rise in opposition to the Kennedy amendment, because once again we stand at a historic juncture where we can make a very clear choice. Because quite the contrary what my colleague from Massachusetts has said, when we offer broad-based…
It is obvious to the American people, while challenges confront us in working out details and, indeed, some would say those details may from time to time bedevil us, we do have a basic blueprint for changing the culture in Washington, for…
I just want, for purposes of emphasis, to ask my colleague from New Jersey to read that total again, assuming the savings with a 2-percent reduction in interest rates. This is for an average family owning a home with a 30-year fixed…
