I am a proud original co-sponsor of this legislation that would prevent the new purchase of gas-guzzling vehicle fleets for the Postal Service.
Electric vehicle offers an opportunity to address multiple challenges at once.
Russia's recent unprovoked and devastating war against Ukraine underscores the urgency of eliminating our reliance on fossil fuels.
President Biden has made a clear and stated goal of electrifying the Federal fleet and I fully support his commitment.
This moment is a once in a generation opportunity to take electric vehicle technology... to the next level with the second-largest vehicle fleet in America and to do so through union labor.
As co-chair of the Sustainable Energy and Environmental Coalition, I remain committed to partnering with President Biden to realize his long-term goal of running a Federal fleet on 100 percent clean power.
We need to be looking at every level of improper payments. It is not just fraud.
We can and must do better to enhance program integrity in the Federal Government and ensuring Federal assistance goes to everyone Congress intended to receive it and nobody we didn't.

It is kind of interesting to hear my friend refer to the economy as 'booming.'
I am proud of the investments we made, but I, like the chairwoman, and I hope all members of this committee, want to know what did we get right and what did we get wrong.

I am disappointed that my Republican colleagues continue to make misleading claims about the Biden Administration's response to the pandemic.
No one is above the law. GSA should not be in the neighborhood to enrich Donald Trump in clearly falsification of documents in ways of financial falsification evaluation and falsification of income, and he`s engaged in all three and it…
The House Oversight Committee wrote to the federal agency that manages Trump`s lease on his D.C. hotel and said they should consider canceling the lease.
The time has come for a much stronger statement than just condemning atrocities.
The situation in Myanmar is grave. The violence, the brutality exercised by the military junta is deplorable.
I represent Tysons Corner. When we built the Silver Line, through Tysons, we have 17,000 people who live in Tysons.
When we need to ensure that there is proper investments in Metro, money alone, as we all know, won't solve the problem.
The bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act that we just passed that was signed into law last year will ensure that Metro receives an annual contribution of $150 million.
This subcommittee has a long record of sustained oversight of the Washington Metropolitan Transit Authority.
