Injecting politics into monetary policy would be a disaster.

If we are worried about the Fed's growth policies, why don't we meet the Fed halfway, and stop the misguided obsession with austerity and trying to trick the economy to grow the economy?

I strongly support the dual mandate. It reflects the reality of monetary policy.

In fact, it is double the national unemployment rate, and I think most people--you included--would agree that is unacceptably high.

The hope of a secure, livable world lies within those who believe in justice and equality for all. Democrats have worked in a bipartisan fashion to ban the display of Confederate flags in Federal cemeteries and barred National Park…

To the extent that a prudential standard is intended to mitigate systemic risk, it should be tailored to the bank's systemic risk.

Unfortunately, that is not what they have done.

I believe, as many of you said in your testimony, that the $50 billion threshold doesn't accurately measure systemic importance.

The American people have spoken. I join over 1 million Americans who voted in an online poll conducted by Women on 20s, a nonprofit grassroots organization, to put a woman on the $20 bill. To celebrate the amazing achievements of women…

I am not sure how I feel. I guess I wanted you to be able to answer Congressman Duffy's question by saying, yes, that some of our information is protected and safe and we could work through this and come up with a fail-safe system. But…

As I recall, in February James Clapper, the Director of National Intelligence, testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee, and in that testimony, he stated that in the future we might see more cyber operations that will change or…

I think that is an extreme way to deal with this.

I must point out to you that you kind of crossed the line when you implied that there was some kind of connection between campaign contributions and support for Ex-Im.

to talk about killing this Bank, not reauthorizing this Bank, is radical.

Thank you to my colleague, the gentlewoman from Illinois, and to my colleague, the gentleman from New Jersey. Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the Congressional Black Caucus this evening for holding this Special Order hour focusing on the…

Let me end by asking and encouraging all people, when they see something, say something. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues today to support this legislation so we may send it to the President's desk for signature, finally bringing justice…

I also applaud the CFPB's efforts in engaging in consumer and industry research to put forth a good rule.

It is my honor to be here pinch hitting for Congressman Cleaver.

We are all here for the consumers, and we have heard that.

Since the passage of it in February of 2010, nearly 12.3 million private sector payroll jobs have been created.

And thank you for what you do, and for also representing those who are the poorest amongst us.

I join many of my colleagues today proudly wearing red and this pin to ask us to remember to bring our girls back who were kidnapped by Boko Haram. Mr. Speaker, I also returned to Washington this week from a busy district work period…

I thank my colleagues, Congressman Donald Payne and Congresswoman Robin Kelly, for leading this evening's critical discussion on ``The State of Black Health: A Congressional Black Caucus Assessment During National Minority Health Month.''…

Thank you, Mr. Capuano, for yielding me time. Thank you, Mr. Neugebauer and Mr. Stivers. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in strong support of the Capital Access for Small Community Financial Institutions Act of 2015, H.R. 299. I join Congressman…

I thank my colleague, the gentlewoman from Illinois, for leading us in tonight's Special Order to address the unique challenges black women face. It is certainly fitting, Mr. Speaker, that we are discussing the contributions of women in…
