The Public Record
Howard Dean is a prominent figure in the Democratic Party, best known for his tenure as the Governor of Vermont from 1991 to 2003. During his time in office, he focused on healthcare reform, environmental issues, and fiscal responsibility, earning a reputation for his progressive policies. Dean played a significant role in the national political landscape as the chair of the Democratic National Committee from 2005 to 2009, where he was instrumental in the party's grassroots organizing efforts and the development of the '50-state strategy' aimed at increasing Democratic presence across the country.
It`s pretty frightening, really. I mean, the CPAC people have gotten more and more sort of off the charts. And Trump has always been a little nuts. But the thing that is so ironic about this is that the people they`re killing in Missouri…
They have nothing to say. And when you have nothing to say that`s good for the country, you resort to the worst possible tactics.
These Republicans are nuts. They`re not all nuts. And that`s why The Lincoln Project is doing so well, is because they appeal to real conservatives who actually care about the party.
On Monday, after a year of battling the coronavirus pandemic, my home Commonwealth of Pennsylvania ended its mask mandate. I am proud of Pennsylvania for exceeding President Biden's goal for vaccinations by the Fourth of July. With over 75…
I thank the chairman for yielding. Madam Speaker, what are they afraid of? The truth? On January 6, I came to this Chamber to try to understand why some of my colleagues were engaged in a lie that the 2020 election was stolen from their…
Today is day 173 of this Congress and the 150th of the Biden administration. These days have been spent governing to repair our global standing, to accelerate our vaccination program, and to boost a struggling economy. With the American…
The Republican Party’s loyalty is to themselves, not to the country. And that’s what’s so discouraging about this.
I think Manchin will be reelected. He -- Manchin is in the most Republican state in the country right now. And I think his people like that. I think Sinema will lose in a primary and will be not heard from again, if this continues.
The Republican stand for nothing, except for stopping Joe Biden from being president.
These are people who might have often voted Republican, but this Republican Party is essentially treacherous. They do not value the United States of America as it is now. They want to run an autocracy.
The Democrats have never been tough enough with the Republicans. And I think Biden`s actually playing this quite well, because the Americans -- the reason Raphael Warnock is in the Senate Jon Ossoff is in the Senate is because the Georgia…
Last Saturday, we remembered the murder of 49 people at the Pulse massacre 5 years ago. Tomorrow, we will mourn 6 years since nine people were killed in their place of worship at Mother Emanuel AME Church. It sits with me every single day…
Democracy dies because you no longer care about democracy. The Republicans have no commitment to democracy at this point.
The reason they are abandoning democracy is because they have no choice. They can’t win in a democracy.
I include in the Record the Statement of Administration Policy issued by the Office of Management and Budget on May 17 of this year in support of this bill. Statement of Administration Policy H.R. 1629--Fairness in Orphan Drug Exclusivity…
I thank Ranking Member Rodgers and Chairman Pallone for their leadership on this bill. I, once again, rise in support of H.R. 1629, the Fairness in Orphan Drug Exclusivity Act. This crucial legislation would close a current loophole that…
I thank Chairman Pallone for his support on this bill, and I urge all members to support its passage.
The only danger for Republicans are the voter suppression laws that are being passed in all these states.
This is a referendum on Joe Biden in the midterms. And so far, he`s going to win that referendum.
If the election were held today, we`d kick their butts, because I think the public, especially well-educated suburban people, are sick of this.
I think it`s about time when some of these Republicans did something what is good for the country, instead of good for their wallets and good for their political careers.
22 million Americans lost their jobs during the pandemic. Slowly we have begun to rebuild, restore, and get back on track. Since President Biden has taken office, 1.5 million jobs have been created--the most jobs created in the first 100…
I think it`s important. I think the fewer sort of symbolic clashes that we have and what is in, for me, the most divisive era of my lifetime, the better.
Politicians like Howard Dean
