His name should once again be visible on the façade and Defendants’ childish refusal to accept this Court’s ruling to that effect should end now.

This latest development is a transparent effort to circumvent the court's ruling and flies in the face of the statutes that Congress passed.

My hope moving forward is that the board restores the integrity of the Kennedy Center, rebuilds programming and respects the rule of law.

The court was clear in its order because the statute is clear: only Congress can change the name of the Kennedy Center.

Today’s victory is the beginning of returning the Kennedy Center to the American people. The rule of law prevailed, and that is worth celebrating. Let this send a message across the country: when we stand up, fight back, and defend our…

He has desecrated this sacred memorial for his own vanity. I am proud to have fought for the rule of law and to protect this sacred institution.

The Kennedy Center is an institution that belongs to the American people, not to Donald Trump.

Mr. Speaker, in closing, this bill aims to address the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Burma by cutting off revenue sources for the country's ruthless and illegitimate leadership. Congress must do whatever is possible to protect human…

Mr. Speaker, this bill will help ensure smaller banks can access the Federal discount window when they need it, which may be sooner rather than later, given that Trump's policies are once again raising the threat of another crisis…

I rise as a proud member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated, to honor our Founders Day. Mr. Speaker, 113 years ago, 22 Black, courageous young women at Howard University founded our sorority. Delta women have always met the moment…

I rise today to honor Rosa Parks, an American hero. Mr. Speaker, it was 70 years ago today, in Montgomery, Alabama, that Rosa Parks was arrested for not surrendering her bus seat to a White man, igniting a 381-day bus boycott. On December…

More than a century later we say their names, we honor their sacrifice we lift up their story as part of a great American story.

I have no trust in this president or the administration, because what they say is counter to what we’re doing in government.

What they’re reporting are just numbers and we don’t know how much accuracy [there] is.

Dismissing certain disclosures as nonmaterial or irrelevant takes that decision out of the hands of the investor and impedes the asset managers' ability to mitigate risks to clients. Lastly, instead of empowering investors and consumers…

President Biden is our best candidate to be able to beat Donald Trump. And that should be our number one goal to beat Donald Trump.

But I also know that 14 million people voted to make him our candidate.

We want a president who cares and who's going to protect our democracy and our freedoms.

We're doing the same thing that you're doing, but we have a lot that we can say to those American people in those states, because President Biden has delivered and that's the good thing.

I also want to thank Leader Hakeem Jeffries and the Democrats for governing by giving the votes necessary to pass the debt ceiling.

Over the last 3½ years, President Biden has helped restore the United States' leadership in a global economy.
