I thank the gentleman from Nebraska for the opportunity to speak on behalf of my bill, the Veterans TRICARE Choice Act. Mr. Speaker, it was my honor to serve for 14 years as a pilot in the Air Force, and for my family--my wife, my…

It is with honor but with sadness that I rise today to honor a local hero, 26-year-old West Valley Police Officer Cody Brotherson, who was killed last week in the line of duty. On Sunday, November 6, around 3 a.m., police were pursuing…

I would like to thank the chairman and Mr. Salmon for letting me speak in support of this resolution. I have worked very closely over the last several years with the Embassy of Japan. I was honored, for example, to host the Deputy…

The Judgment Fund is the mechanism that Congress established in 1956 to pay settlements and judgments issued against the United States.
