How significant and beautiful that today, the day of Mike Oxley's birth, we celebrate his glorious and beautiful life. Thank you, Pat. Thank you, Chadd Elvis. Thank you, Jennifer and grandson Max. Thanks to all of you for sharing Mike…
Obamacare's co-ops have been a disaster, and after using American taxpayers' piggybank, more than half have failed.
I thank Chairman Brady and Speaker Ryan for their leadership. Mr. Speaker, to the previous gentleman, I say Mr. and Mrs. America would be stunned to know that, to keep current policy in place, we have to raise taxes to keep tax cuts, some…
I thank the chairman for all his leadership on this going back years. Mr. Speaker, I introduced the Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act in April of this year, and it is great to see that this issue is finally getting done. I would…
I am confident we can resolve these issues, Mr. Speaker. This has been a long overdue bill that provides much modernization to our Customs process to make it easier for our manufacturers and our businesses and, ultimately, our workers, to…
Just to close, I agree 100 percent with my friend from California. I urge all our colleagues to support this important piece of legislation. I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion…
History confirms that it is up to public policymakers to enact laws that allow the private sector to thrive.
It is the role of Congress and the President, not the Federal Reserve, to set the stage for greater economic growth.
And rather than trying to come up with these BEPS rules and anti-inversion rules, I just don't understand and don't see the leadership from the White House.
Boy, oh boy. I remember watching the Democratic Convention and Joe Biden making fun of the exemption system, saying that would ship jobs overseas.
What a journey. What a journey. It is a journey that I got to join after I was elected to the House in November of 2000. My first real interaction with you, Mr. Speaker, you might remember, you were the incoming chairman of the Committee…
On rollcall No. 490 (On Motion to Suspend the Rules and Pass S. 1359), I was unavoidably detained and did not cast my vote. Had I been present, I would have voted, ``yea'' on this vote.
On rollcall Nos. 467 (On Motion to Suspend the Rules and Pass S. 1482), 468 (On Motion to Suspend the Rules and Pass, as Amended, H.R. 1656), 469 (On Motion to Suspend the Rules and Pass, as Amended, H.R. 2270), I was unavoidably detained…
This is a good day for America. As the previous speaker just said, globalization occurs with or without America engaging in the world. It is important for America to engage in the world, to write the rules of the global balance economy…
I think most of us agree that a user-pay system is the way to go for funding our highways and our infrastructure.
Thank you for holding this hearing as we try to come up with a long-term solution to fund our country's roads and infrastructure.
Read the bill. I have got it right here. The only thing different is the number at the top has changed. The content is the same. TPA is not a trade deal. It is a process that holds this President accountable. It sets in motion Congress…
I now have the privilege to yield 1\1/2\ minutes to the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Roskam), a member of the Ways and Means Committee and an important voice on trade.
It is my privilege to yield 1 minute to the gentleman from California (Mr. McClintock), one of our leaders here in the Congress on free trade. Mr. McCLINTOCK. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman so much for yielding and for his good work…
It is now my honor to yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Young), a member of the Ways and Means Committee and a great partner in trying to open up and break down barriers around the world.
