NAN A. S. HAYWORTH

Jobs, jobs, and more jobs. That is precisely what this legislation is about, to offer economic opportunities, to create new jobs. We can do that. And, indeed, I would commend to my friend a bill we passed a couple of years ago where we…

Mr. Speaker, it bears repeating that S. 162 provides for the distribution of certain funds awarded to the Gila River Pima-Maricopa Indian community. This bill is the Senate companion version to the legislation that I introduced, that my…

H.R. 108, which amends the Education Land Grant Act to require the Secretary of Agriculture to pay the costs of environmental reviews, is an important piece of legislation for many schools, many school districts, but most of all for many…

I appreciate and applaud the remarks of my friend from Maine because it typifies, at long last, we actually had discussion on the bill we are working on this afternoon and the benefits it brings, rather than another convoluted process. So…

Let me also take time at the outset to thank my friend, the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Davis), on the other side of the aisle for his support of this resolution, House Resolution 113, a resolution that recognizes the scope of child abuse…

I would join my colleague from New York in the heartfelt prayer that those who have been sent into harm's way will return safely and successfully following the liberation of Iraq, and, Mr. Speaker, I would make this point today as we…

Tomorrow afternoon in Scottsdale, Arizona at 2 o'clock Mountain Standard Time, there will be a memorial service held for the man described as the ace of aces, a genuine hero, Congressional Medal of Honor recipient Joe Foss. Joe Foss…

Mr. Speaker, the Education Land Grant Act set up a national mechanism to convey small parcels of U.S. Forest Service land to local educational agencies for the purpose of renovation, expansion, or construction of school facilities. Mr…

I rise this morning with a note of remembrance. Raymond Hall Hayworth, age 98, passed away peacefully yesterday. The last teammate of Ty Cobb has now left his earthly field. Ray Hayworth wore a major league uniform in parts of 3 decades…

Well, I think it is worth noting that in fiscal year 2000 Medicare and Medicaid provided $82.1 billion, 60 percent of the money spent, of the $123 billion, spent on long-term care services. We have a basic question here. If we do not put…

Mr. Speaker, I thank you for this debate; and it does point up some basic differences that exist between the gentleman from California (Mr. Stark) and many of us on the majority side. It is interesting to hear the call for nationalized…

I think it offers another compelling reason why we thank the appropriators, given the magnitude of the task, but reassert the role of the authorizing committee, and recognize the good but challenging work that has been done thus far to try…

Mr. Chairman, sometimes studies of the obvious are important. But it is obvious that across the width and breadth of the country we have the first Americans, quite candidly, oftentimes dealing with Third World conditions. Economic…

The West has been ravaged by wildfire and the people of the 6th District of Arizona and the White Mountains have suffered the worst fire disaster in our history, hundreds of homes demolished, thousands of jobs lost. I thank my friend from…

I have sat down with the administration. We do need to have the funds, whether in this bill or via supplemental. I pledge to work with the gentleman. I appreciate the collaborative efforts here to solve a problem, and it is in that spirit…

What are some on this Hill waiting for? The President made it clear yesterday... we will not stand for fraud and deception and deceit and theft from the American people.

It is important for citizens of my home State, Arizona, the seniors there who are still awake at what is 20 until 9, prime time in the State of Arizona, to understand exactly what we are doing in this legislation. Despite the wailing and…

If, in fact, they are offering marriage relief, we say welcome. But there is a problem here in what they have done. Article I, section 7 of the Constitution reads, ``All bills for raising revenue shall originate in the House of…

I would appeal to all who come here, when you talk about tax fairness, there is nothing fair about penalizing people for getting married. I think back almost a decade and a half ago now to the news that I took my mom, when Miss Mary and I…

let me let the gentleman in on a little secret. The gentleman from Nebraska (Mr. Terry) asks a very pertinent question, and given the curious mathematics of Washington, let us point out at the outset that we could take every economist in…

I do so tonight to signal the fact that our vote tomorrow should be a vote that does not accentuate party lines, that when people go and register for a marriage license, they do not declare a political party preference, they are not…

later today we will take a vote to make the death tax repeal permanent. It will be a bipartisan vote, despite some of the preceding rhetoric in the well of the House, and I do not want anyone to be deceived or misled. One of the leading…

The key of course is not just the right allocation of resources. It also of course is accountability. And, Mr. Speaker, now it is time to become accountable to the American family, to family-owned businesses, to ranches and farms and so…

Mindful of that as a broadcaster, the old time clock on the wall, it is important for us to pass permanent repeal, no matter the siren song of seduction saying ``let us set a temporary level that will accommodate some folks.'' Maybe this…

Mr. Chairman, this is a Chamber where men and women of good will can come to share points of view that from time to time may be at odds. Mr. Chairman, we recognize that an election is about 160 days away. While passions and tempers may run…
