We know that the most effective way for young people to get into the middle class is with an education. Those without an education are going to have challenges. Whatever station of life you come from, if you get a good education, you have…

This amendment, as the gentleman from Wisconsin has said, prohibits funds from being used to finalize, implement, administer, or enforce the milk section of USDA's proposed rule that aligns nutrition standards to the 2020 dietary…

We can provide students with an inclusive, accurate and well-funded education without conspiracy theories that fuel anti-Asian discrimination.

House republicans proposed a solution, the proposed solution is an array of devastating cuts to the Federal funding that fuels our children's education.

We are actually nearly 11 days from a potential government shutdown, and here we are unconcerned about the impact of a shutdown on our economy.

It is my hope that colleagues across the aisle will help us save the childcare sector from potential collapse.

There are many challenges we have in higher education that demand our attention: the rising cost of college, student debt crisis, the eroded value of the Pell grant, student mental health issues, and the list goes on. Instead, we are…

I include in the Record a letter from approximately 200 different organizations in opposition to this resolution. May 8, 2023. Hon. Chuck Schumer, Majority Leader, U.S. Senate, Washington, DC. Hon. Kevin McCarthy, Speaker, House of…

I am prepared to close, and I yield myself the balance of my time. Madam Chair, I regret that my Republican colleagues continue to relitigate the Affordable Care Act. However, what we have seen is not new. It is what we have seen time and…
