I think our country is fortunate that you are on the front lines of this very important negotiation.
Unless you get meaningful structural changes to address this stealing of our intellectual property... this is an agreement not worth having.
It is a binding trade agreement that you are seeking, you can seek it only through delegation of congressional authority.
you might pay nothing or no more than half of what you would pay here in America in taxes if you invest in Shanghai instead of investing in San Antonio.
the goal here is meaningful structural changes. And if we don't get them, this is an agreement not worth having.
the ultimate increase in wages for workers seems to be getting further and further away.
Finally, this House is doing what the Constitution demands: to debate war and peace. The problem here is that President Trump has essentially subcontracted out American foreign policy in the Middle East to a murderous Saudi regime, and the…
I am pleased that every amendment that we offered as Democrats trying to improve that bill was fully paid for.
most every objective economic study, whether it is from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce or independent economist, shows that if we move forward with comprehensive immigration reform, it would be a boon to our economy
we had steady economic growth, we had jobs, we had job growth, we had economic progress well underway
let them achieve their all, that that would be a growth incentive in Texas, in our southwestern states, and in many other parts of the country
this Committee, should it decide to make these records public, has powers that even the special counsel, Mr. Mueller, does not have
Let us send a strong, bipartisan message, not just to the White House, but to the Kremlin, by rejecting this favoritism toward Putin. Let's vote today as Members of the United States Congress, not the Russian Duma. Mr. McCAUL. Mr. Speaker…
I would just say to my colleague and neighbor, Mr. McCaul, I hope that means that every Republican, none of whom are on the floor here with him to explain their position on this, will join us on this important vote, because this sanctions…
Trump and his apologists are so very good at breaking things. It is just fixing them they can't seem to find an answer to. This underlying lawsuit is little more than a conspiracy between a criminally-indicted Texas Republican attorney…
Millions of American families will be enjoying the bounty of our great Nation at this very special time of the year without realizing that their tax dollars are subsiding Saudi war crimes in Yemen. It is estimated that every 10 minutes…
The voters told them: The party's over. Go home. But before going home, they want to go big with another big, irresponsible national debt-busting bill. Republicans are struggling to stuff just a little more silver in their donors' pockets…
Atrocities that are supported with American tax dollars. They fear that a bipartisan majority of this House would reject what has become a wretched stain on our Nation. Last month, this same group of Trump enablers buried consideration of…
What cruel irony that this rule, dealing, in part, with too much food in America, will deny food to millions in Yemen. In that remote corner of the world, of which most Americans know very little, 85,000 children have already died, and…
As we approve this Asia Reassurance Initiative Act, it is also very important that we provide reassurance to Americans that our values are not being abandoned. With one deranged tweet after another, many people, both here and in Asia, view…
In this rule, the wolves bare their fangs-- not American wolves, but Saudis, who are willing to sever heads, dismember opponents, and bomb the innocent. This rule is truly a wolf in wolf's clothing. By blocking a vote on whether America…
