Trump is directly violating that law, lifting sanctions to permit the first Russian diesel imports into the United States since the law took effect, without satisfying the specific legal conditions it requires.

The IRS should never be a weapon to punish a president's political enemies.

Every time Americans open their refrigerators or go to the gas pump they are paying for a war that should never have been started.

We’re the greatest country on earth. We’re innovative, we’re smart, we make sure that we promote our values, our liberties and justice and freedom. We’re always trying to perfect our union, but at the same time, we were the great…

I believe Americans are ready to defend our democracy and oppose authoritarianism so that we can celebrate our 251st birthday in this country instead of turning all power over to a would-be king.

I'm here today ... to affirm in the strongest terms that Taiwan is not a bargaining chip. It is an island of freedom. And we need to do all we can to preserve it.

Billions of taxpayer dollars are being wasted on this unnecessary project, as Big Bend’s rugged mountains make illegal crossings nearly impossible, with crossings in the area accounting for under half a percentage point of all illegal…

Once again, the corrupt Trump regime has sold off the best interests of Americans to the highest bidder—repealing modest rules after nursing home executives donated to the Trump campaign.

This legislation provides the accountability these executives, often backed by private equity, have dodged for too long.

We could restore access to a family physician for millions of American families who no longer have it thanks to the Republican action. Or, we could instead choose to provide for our future by ensuring that every single 3- and 4-year-old in…

While we are thankful for this belated decision of four Republicans here at the last minute to join the discharge petition, unless they join us in voting in favor of this action on the previous question, there is nothing that can be done…

There’s still a great deal more that I would like to do on behalf of the city.

If the courts give Trump a victory in his scheme to maintain control of a compliant House, I will not seek reelection in the reconfigured CD37.

If this racially gerrymandered Trump map is rejected, as it should be, I will continue seeking reelection in Congressional District 37 to represent my neighbors in the only town I have ever called home.

The benefits for the middle class in the bill would be very little compared to the cost of this bill.

These little flourishes that were added, like no tax on tips, are issues that are designed to cover the horrible job that they’re doing.

Well, I think the Senate accomplished a near-impossible task. They took an ugly bill and they made it even uglier.

America is stronger when we protect dissent in all its forms, as long as it is done in a proper way.

Rather than changing the law, Trump issues another press release that will offer consumers little or nothing.

The gentleman is trying to turn the world upside down. We are the ones who accept election results. We are not the ones who stormed the Capitol. We are not the ones who still deny the results of the last election. We believe in democracy…

I would reiterate that on October 1, the IRS, once again, extended for another year the protection that the gentleman says he wants. I am as opposed to Hamas as he is, but this has nothing to do with that. It has everything to do with what…
