So here we are, January 18, 2018, 1 day before the risk of another shutdown, and their fiddling is unprecedented. Don't have a budget framework; can't make decisions; don't consult with our side. Why should we be in a helpful mood? We were…

Mr. Speaker, I rise today to defend our Nation's children. The GOP tax scam repeals the provision assuring all families have health insurance access. Nonpartisan experts estimate 13 million fewer Americans will be insured because of the…
