2 weeks from today, Golden Week will begin in the State of Ohio. This is a one-stop voting opportunity that will allow Ohio residents to register and cast in-person absentee ballots at the same time. But for the U.S. district court ruling…

On the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act, is grotesque.

These bills are aimed squarely at stifling the work of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).

These bills would decimate the EEOC's ability to safeguard American workers from discrimination.

I would argue, we are wasting time here with a set of misguided bills that impede the operations of the EEOC.

This is clearly a step backward in our civil rights laws.

I thank you for yielding. I want to thank my colleagues, Congressmen Jeffries and Horsford, for leading today's conversation on a problem that America must acknowledge, come to terms with, and address. I want to thank them for their…

Thank you very, very much for yielding. I, again, want to thank my colleagues Congressmen Jeffries and Horsford for, again, leading the Congressional Black Caucus Special Order hour on an issue that should never have made it to this House…

As far as I am concerned we have made a decision, the farm bill is done. Let's look forward to some things that we really can change.

I am glad to have this opportunity for us to learn more about this program.

If there is so much fraud and you see it, why would it not be reported?

Either you don't know or you have not reported, and in either case, you should.

Thank you so much, Mr. Chairman. Let me just say I just received notice that they have called votes.

There are many people in this country who work hard every day to make a living and feed their families who just need an extra help, just need a hand up, not a handout.

It is certainly timely to have our first hearing of this Subcommittee on SNAP.

Members of both sides of the aisle and across Chambers were able to reach a consensus and show the country Congress can indeed work together.

But what I do know is that there are many hungry children in this country who but for SNAP would not survive from day to day.

What do we do to make sure that every single local police department has the proper training? Because I am telling you, that is a major part of the problem.

I have been blessed and privileged to work with many great people in this House. You have just heard from one, the assistant leader who is our historian and has been an activist in many, many ways throughout his life. I now want to yield…

I urge Chairman Walberg and Chairman Kline to work with Representatives Polis and Ros-Lehtinen, the bill's bipartisan sponsors, to bring this long overdue legislation back before the Committee for immediate consideration.

There are just some things that are inherently American. They are truth and freedom and justice, doing what is best for our Nation. I know that we have disagreements, we have differences, but today, we stand together as one House, and I…

I would like to thank the chairwoman for the support. It is very much appreciated. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of H. Con. Res. 100, which authorizes the use of the Capitol rotunda…

It is now my pleasure to yield as much time as he may consume to the gentleman from South Carolina (Mr. Clyburn), the assistant Democratic leader of the House. (Mr. CLYBURN asked and was given permission to revise and extend his remarks.)

I want to thank Congressman Jeffries and Congressman Horsford for organizing this Special Order Hour to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the historic Brown v. Board of Education ruling. The Brown v. Board of Education decision declared…

Just because they said it doesn't make it so. These are the same people that want to restrict voting rights.
