Let me just say again, we can solve this problem now. I respect that my friends have strong feelings about their legislation. We all do. The reality is that that legislation is not going to get through the Senate; it is not going to be…

May I inquire as to how much time is remaining? The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Oklahoma has 1\1/2\ minutes remaining. The gentleman from Massachusetts has 3\1/4\ minutes remaining.

I want to begin by thanking my good friend, the gentleman from Massachusetts (Chairman McGovern) for yielding me the customary 30 minutes. Mr. Speaker, well, we are here for the third time this week and the second time on a supplemental…

I am puzzled as well. I am puzzled why this wasn't dealt with 8 weeks ago when the administration asked. I am puzzled why, for 16 times when we tried to bring this matter up on the floor, our friends in the majority rejected that. Now we…

I think you will be delighted to hear that I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from the great State of Michigan (Mr. Mitchell).

I personally thank my good friend, the gentlewoman from Texas (Ms. Jackson Lee), for the professional and very patient manner in which she handled the Chair and presided over this body. I wanted to recognize that. Madam Speaker, I yield 2…

I want to begin by thanking my friend. I think this is a wise decision. I know it was a difficult decision, but I think it is the right thing because I know we have a common objective here. We know we need resources at the border right…

I want to thank the Speaker personally for taking control of a difficult situation. So, Madam Speaker, just to resume my point, we have a vehicle. It could literally pass on this floor in less than an hour. It could head to the President…

I know my friends are aware of this, but the Senate bill is actually--well, I certainly would vote for it. I think it would have overwhelming support on our side. The President, in the past, has expressed some concerns, and that is an…

I will just make the same point I have been making for days on end. We have something that can pass versus something that can't. I don't doubt for a minute that my friends are sincere in their concerns, but I also respect my colleagues on…

To quote my friend, ``give me a break.'' The last Republican Congress appropriated roughly $300 million for election security, point 1. Point 2, we have no evidence anybody hacked any election machines, as my friend, Mr. Davis pointed out…

On that I demand the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays were ordered. The SPEAKER pro tempore. This is a 5-minute vote. The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 225, nays 189, not voting 18, as follows: [Roll No. 410]…

I want to remind my friends that it took them weeks, if not longer, to even acknowledge there was a crisis at the border. As a matter of fact, they were accusing the President of manufacturing the crisis a few weeks ago. Now, fortunately…

I just want to briefly yield myself such time as I may consume to make a quick point. My friend is saying there is no money for Border Patrol and the military. Whose custody do you think those children are in for the first couple of days…

And I thank my good friend, the gentleman from Massachusetts (Mr. McGovern), for yielding me the customary 30 minutes. Mr. Speaker, we are here today on our second rule of the day. This one is on a supplemental appropriations bill for the…

Could I inquire, I am prepared to close whenever my friend is. If he has additional speakers, I will just reserve. Mr. McGOVERN. Madam Speaker, I am prepared to close.

My friend is not impressed, and that is a fair statement, and I don't question my friend ever, but I am not impressed with legislation that can't become law because it is futile. We come down here with a lot of sound and fury, but we don't…

On that I demand the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays were ordered. The SPEAKER pro tempore. This is a 5-minute vote. The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 225, nays 190, not voting 17, as follows: [Roll No. 404]…

I want to thank my good friend, the gentleman from Massachusetts, Chairman McGovern, for yielding me the customary 30 minutes. Madam Speaker, we are here today on two very different pieces of legislation. Last night at the Rules Committee…

To make a quick point, and then I want to move to my friend from Illinois. Madam Speaker, I don't argue about constitutional power, but I argue about process. Look, I seriously doubt my friends have spent very much time talking to election…

On that I demand the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays were ordered. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 9 of rule XX, the Chair will reduce to 5 minutes the minimum time for any electronic vote on the question of the adoption of…

If we defeat the previous question, I will offer an amendment to the rule to immediately bring up H.R. 3056, the Border Crisis Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2019. Unlike the bill before us today, H.R. 3056 provides all the necessary…

I thank the distinguished ranking Republican member of the Appropriations Committee, my good friend, Ms. Granger, for yielding. I want to begin, Mr. Chair, on a positive note. I want to thank, particularly, my working partner, Rosa…

I reserve the balance of my time. Ms. DeLAURO. Mr. Chairman, I claim time in opposition to the amendment. The Acting CHAIR. The gentlewoman from Connecticut is recognized for 5 minutes. Ms. DeLAURO. Mr. Chair, I strongly oppose my…
