I am honored to stand for the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, an important step for racial justice. I hope our approval will soften the hearts in the Senate because there is much to do. I am honored to work with another champion for…

As we face a challenge even greater than the Great Depression, it is imperative that we pass the HEROES Act today and then continue to fight. Next, I hope we tailor a specific plan to rescue America's 500,000 neighborhood restaurants and…

I thank Chairman Neal for yielding me time. I am in awe of the countless unsung heroes who made it possible for all of us to get here safely today. We thank them. I am here not just to vote for badly needed additional relief, but in…

Today's vote is a welcome sign to the hundreds of thousands of Oregonians I represent who are worried about staying healthy, keeping their job, and paying their bills. This legislation is by no means perfect, nor does it do nearly enough…

I appreciate the gentleman's courtesy, and I appreciate his leadership on this issue. I have listened to my friends on the other side of the aisle, and I am saddened that they somehow feel that this is boiling down to some sort of notion…

I appreciate the gentlewoman's courtesy in permitting me to speak on this bill. I feel very strongly about this. The United States Postal Service moves almost half the world's mail. It is the most popular Federal agency, highest ratings…

We urge you to include the Blumenauer language which passed the House with a bipartisan 243-188 vote in this year's underlying bill.

I thank the gentleman for yielding. My service in the House has been marked by a loss of Congress' power to deal with war and peace. I am proud to stand with my friend, Congresswoman Lee, as I did with her in her 2002 amendment…

I appreciate the gentlewoman's courtesy in permitting me to speak on this and bringing us together, and I have enjoyed listening to my colleagues walk us down memory lane. Barbara Lee, Jan Schakowsky, these are painful memories, but we…

I appreciate my friend from Massachusetts setting the record straight. The war powers activity, the authorization of military force has been an issue that a number of us have been concerned with, Republican and Democrat, going back to the…

This is an opportunity for us to get it right. And to take our friend, Mr. Cole's, word, we can move this forward. I see this as a beginning, and we can build on it, but rein in this administration. Send a strong signal. Approve this…

President Trump has demonstrated the limitation of his reality show, go-it-alone, incoherent approach, which helped him eke out an electoral college victory while losing the popular vote by 3 million votes, but is spectacularly…

We are, as we keep saying, in unchartered waters with this president, his reckless behavior, his denial of the norms that everybody else has adhered to, challenges to the court.

The majority of public...overwhelming majority of the public, favors this process being fair.

There is going to be more information that trickles out. And frankly, this President is just acting unhinged.

I appreciate the gentleman's hard work on this. This is the largest transfer of wealth in American history with the tax bill of the Republicans. They kept the tax break for corporations and they are hitting middle class families in my…

I thank Chairman Neal for his extraordinary efforts. Twenty-five years ago, NAFTA passed over strong opposition, with serious flaws. At the beginning of this Congress, we were given a bill by the administration that didn't address those…

By denying the full SALT deduction, you are making it more expensive to buy homes, you are having a lower resale value, it is a loss of net worth, plus there is about a 1 percent hit because of the higher interest rates that are going to…

Thanks to the hard work of our committees and the leadership of the Speaker, we found overwhelming evidence Trump invited foreign interests to interfere in our elections for his personal gain, and then he took unprecedented efforts to…

I appreciate the gentleman's courtesy, and I appreciate his leadership. I strongly urge that my colleagues reject the cynical approach that is being advanced by our Republican friends. Think about it for a moment. We are talking about…

Reject this cynical view that the drug companies will punish consumers before they will restrain some of the excesses if we finally take back part of the monopoly powers that the Republicans gave to the pharmaceutical industry.

We should not split hairs. We need to reaffirm our policy with this resolution because Congress in the past has not been clear enough. In my visits to Israel I have been struck how young people, Palestinian and Jews alike, believe…

I appreciate the gentlewoman's courtesy in permitting me to speak on this and for organizing what I think is one of the most important discussions that this Congress needs to have. Housing is fundamental. It has been the major source of…

I appreciate the gentleman's courtesy and his leadership and our friend from the Northern Mariana Islands for moving this legislation forward. This is about leadership in terms of ending the global practice. My colleague from Louisiana…

I appreciate the gentleman's courtesy, and I appreciate his words. Mr. Speaker, for years, we have danced around this. It is complex with the Turks, in terms of the relationship that we have tried to deal with. But denying genocide has not…
