So they continued to have egregious safety violations since....

So who is the most egregious safety violator that we have in the Gulf of Mexico right now?

So I didn't know if maybe their favorable position on cap and trade got them some special consideration, at least the Administration looking the other way.

How in the world were these people allowed to keep operating with those kind of egregious problems?

I would encourage you to take a personal interest in who the egregious violators----

I have had friends, many that have worked out in the Gulf of Mexico, and they have told me about BP back before the blowout, the Deepwater Horizon, that they had a reputation for trying to cut corners.

I appreciate my friend from Georgia, Rob Woodall, so much. What clarity. We lost a good man when John Linder didn't run again, and we gained a good man when Rob Woodall ran for that seat. So it is a good day. Well, there is a matter of…

Several years ago, there was an author who wrote a book about millionaires in America; and it was amazing, most of the millionaires built a business, built a farm, and the number one most commonly driven vehicle by millionaires in America…

I hope the committee will address that.

It is a prohibited act to prohibit somebody from practicing their religion.

Yet, the question remains why shouldn't they be able to carry a weapon on military installations here in the United States?

To prevent our military members trained with weapons from defending themselves on their own military installation really should be unconscionable.

First of all, I want to address this. The bill we passed today is something that needed to be addressed. It was a problem that has been growing for about 16 years, or so. The cut that was put into law has been changed 17 times in the last…

Well, here we are, the fifth anniversary of--well, at least this weekend--what many affectionately or disaffectionately call ObamaCare. It is kind of hard to call it the Affordable Care Act because we-- many of us--know exactly how much…

The story out in a number of media, like this from Breitbart, ``First Details of Iran Deal: Allows 6,000 Centrifuges, Rolls Back the U.N. Arms Embargo.'' That story talks about in order to entice Iran to cut back to 6,000 or 6,500…

Yes. I have noted in an e-mail from De Shann Schinkel on March 20, 2015, just 2 or 3 months ago, that she did not know the value of all the bonds that were shredded.

It is interesting these days to hear our current Secretary of State, someone who as a Congressman went to Central America and basically was negotiating a deal with a communist leader--corrupt--at the same time the Reagan administration was…

Last December, we were told that the best way to approach the matter--despite some of us thinking to the contrary--was to fund everything but DHS. We were told, This is the play. Well, some of us were afraid that if we did that, that we…

Following my friend from Mississippi, it is important that we recognize that it is not just a person coming tomorrow to speak to us, it is the leader of Israel, our best friend in the Middle East. You think I like to come here and get…

I appreciated so much my friend Mr. Scott for bringing up that oath. It does mean a lot--in my case, taking that oath to serve in the Army for 4 years, taking, basically, the same oath to be a prosecutor in Texas, to be a judge in Texas…

I had seen an article, February fourteenth, again Breitbart reported, that the border patrol agents catch Middle Eastern man sneaking into Texas.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. I do appreciate my friend's discussion today. In fact, there is an article I would like to move right into regarding the President's proposal to help middle America by going after corporations. {time} 1815 This is…

I can't imagine releasing somebody on a makeable job if both sides agree the defendant had a 50 percent chance of re-offending.

I am very concerned about the way the money is being spent.

We are releasing criminals to go after them? That is outrageous.
