I thank the gentleman from Florida for hosting this Special Order tonight on China. I was watching the news today like most other folks are, and part of the news says that the tariffs are the problem and the President is the problem. That…

I was unavoidably detained and could not get to the floor. Had I been present, I would have voted ``nay'' on rollcall No. 172, ``nay'' on rollcall No. 173, and ``nay'' on rollcall No. 174. ____________________

Adopting socialist policies would be disastrous for the economy.

We need to put socialism on trial and do it today.

We either stand with the freedom-loving people of Venezuela or we do not.

Had I been present, I would have voted ``nay'' on rollcall No. 140 and ``nay'' on rollcall No. 141. ____________________

I want to begin by applauding the President and your Department for taking steps to recognize the Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights.

I do not personally believe that the American people think that there is a threat to the NATO alliance.

I thank the gentleman from Oklahoma (Mr. Cole) for yielding. Mr. Speaker, this rule is about what is called the For the People Act, but, to me, it should be called the ``For the Swamp Act.'' Now, we are going to have plenty of time later…

I thank Mr. Loudermilk for the time, and I, too, thank the majority leader for his comments. But I don't think it should be removed from history that the Governor of Alabama at that time ran on segregation; multiple times, ran on…

These foreign assistance dollars are precious and... it is really important that we safeguard them.

North Korea is a hostile actor and an enemy of the United States of America and Western civilization and democracies all around the world.

I do not like dealing with dictators at all. But I understand they live in the world today...

This committee is uniquely positioned to make considerable progress to address climate change.

Problems in obtaining a global temperature history are due to the uneven station distribution, with the Southern Hemisphere and ocean areas poorly represented, and the smaller number of stations for earlier times.

I stand here today to condemn the senseless, cowardly, and horrific terrorist attack in India, the deadliest in three decades. On February 14 of this year, a suicide bomber rammed an explosive- packed vehicle into a convoy, claiming the…

I thank the gentlewoman from Texas for the opportunity. Mr. Speaker, this is bad policy following bad process--an 1100-plus- page bill dropped at midnight last night, and we are acting like we can't walk and chew gum at the same time. We…

According to the reports, half of those deaths were for nonviolent drug charges. The Saudi Kingdom executes its citizens for blasphemy and crimes against the state, actions that are protected under the First Amendment of the U.S…

I thank the gentleman from Texas for yielding. I am opposed to H.J. Res. 37, Mr. Chair. This resolution is poor policy and will not achieve the aims of those who support it. That is really the crux of the issue here. My colleagues are…

Well, I thank the gentlewoman so much, and I know this is a sensitive, uncomfortable topic, but it must be discussed. We can't just close our eyes and turn our head from uncomfortable things. I am so proud and thankful that the gentlewoman…

I am here today to talk about something that is completely unimaginable to me. I can't imagine I am here to talk about it on the floor of the House of Representatives. I can't imagine that it occurs in the world. I can't imagine that it…

I am not sure what else to call it. We are a generous people, and I, myself, am the product of legal immigration through Ellis Island. We want to remain that way. The United States is the most generous nation on the planet in that regard…

We are here today to talk a little bit about what we just saw, which is what the gentleman from Texas is talking about, this vote that we just had with the condemnation of shutdown. Let's just be clear. Nobody--nobody--in this House…

People at home think they are watching C- SPAN, but this is more like ``Masterpiece Theatre.'' I mean, this is actually like a documentary where we record what happened in history, but here we see that we are going to change and revise…
