But, Mr. Secretary, you understand that they don't understand how it is that you would not have enough money to pay them, but yet you have enough money to take us into a conflict with Syria.

The only thing that's rolling is that you're rolling the American people and you're rolling this committee and it is going to stop.

We're not dealing with the IRS coming forward and saying this is what has happened, either to the American public or to this committee.

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds made…

In reclaiming my time, Mr. Chairman, I thank the chairman for his continued interest and for his support in this matter.

In reclaiming my time, I understand that the committee intends to wait until the Army announces its force structure changes and then will assess the need for additional upgraded tanks. While I respect that position, I think that, with…

In reclaiming my time, I understand that, earlier in the year, both the administration and others believed that foreign military sales alone may be sufficient to keep this production line running. Those sales have not yet materialized, and…

I appreciate the gentleman's commitment to enter into a colloquy. Madam Chair, I rise to speak about the Abrams tank. The Appropriations Committee has wisely included funding in the last 2 years for continuing to upgrade the Abrams tank…

If you look at the issue of the health care tax credit that they currently have been utilizing, it is expiring.

Thank you for your dedication to the details of this issue and for your understanding about the personal impacts and the fact that our government shouldn't work this way, that this is an injustice that no one should have to withstand.

We are dedicated to the issue of trying to do investigations to right injustices

We should issue subpoenas since the Administration has not been forthcoming

Were it not for the Delphi salaried retirees standing up against the injustice which they faced, organizing themselves in a great structure and filing suit, pursuing the judicial process through this and working as a partner with us, we…

What does the math say, and what laws apply.
