So life and death kind of issue?

the results have often been fatal.

But, actually, if they do what they say and hold defense and vets harmless actually could be up to 50 percent.

the attack on his staff earlier this week is weighing heavily on his mind.

I am concerned about the safety of our hard-working postal carriers by senseless criminals.

I just want to point out the hypocrisy that a party that talks about controlling disease and rants and rails about the money we have to spend combating these diseases has a wide open border policy that allows diseases into our own country…

I have been here 15 years, and I do not think I have ever experienced just the collapse of partisanship over a human issue.

The irony as well as tragedy of that is we're actually making progress on malaria in terms of both prevention and maybe even a cure.

The Department of Homeland Security's grant programs are key.

The statehood petition, which Congresswoman Norton has introduced, makes all the sense in the world.

My heart goes out to the victims and families of those murdered in an apparent right-wing extremist shooting in Allen, Texas.

Putin's invasion of Ukraine and the thousands of war crimes that have been documented cannot go unpunished.

I urge my colleagues to support statehood for the nearly 700,000 D.C. residents.

This is abhorrent, and there is no room for political violence in our country.
