Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that the gentlewoman from Texas, the Honorable Erica Lee Carter, be permitted to take the oath of office today. Her certificate of election has not arrived, but there is no contest and no question has…
Mr. Speaker, I yield myself 10 seconds to tell the chairman he is absolutely right. I stand corrected concerning the IRS Commissioner. That is the only thing I stand corrected on, and I would be glad to join him in a further appeal to the…
