As a single working mom, I ask unanimous consent to call up H.R. 682, the Reopen Schools Act, to get our kids out from behind screens and back into the classroom. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The chair understands that the gentleman from…

I have no further speakers, and I am prepared to close. Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues today to support this bill, and I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion offered by the…

I have no further speakers and I am prepared to close. I reserve the balance of my time. General Leave

I have no further speakers and am prepared to close. It is a real honor to be here today, and the distinguished whip is correct that this is long overdue, to recognize Joseph Rainey and his accomplishments. He fought tirelessly for civil…

I yield myself such time as I may consume. Madam Speaker, I rise in support of H.R. 772, a bill that would name a Minnesota post office after Jim Ramstad. From 1968 to 1974, Jim Ramstad served as a member of the Army Reserve. In 1981, he…

At the end of the day, this is window dressing that will be lapped up by the adoring media.

I challenge you to bring folks from the Biden administration before this committee to answer questions we would all like to know.

it ensures that we are holding government agencies accountable. It also improves public safety, which I think is a goal of both parties.

I definitely think that they would have much to say in response, to you.

One of the things that comes to mind is just how delicate these ecosystems are, and when you imbalance them, you have all these cascading of events that occur that you described: invasive species moving in, forests lost.

I think the first thing I would say is in terms of a refugee programing, when we are talking about that, we just need to call for an increase in the program.
