As usual, my friend from Massachusetts raises good points, and, as usual, he is a good watch dog for our Congress. I agree with him; we have to have priorities. But I think he has picked the wrong priority on this occasion. NASA, as has…
despite the high cost of energy and existing laws enforcing conservation, Federal agencies still do not give energy efficiency a priority and continually fall short of meeting their requirements. Our estimates are that the Federal…
I again urge passage of this bill and yield the remainder of my time to my friend from Michigan (Mr. Levin).
I am very pleased that the joint explanatory statement of the Committee of Conference designated $360,000 under the COPS Methamphetamine Enforcement and Clean-up for the Tennessee Methamphetamine Detection and Remediation Research…
let me just first say I do not want to offend anyone personally here today, and this is not a personal argument. It is just that because I know the Republicans here just like myself work hard, they care about their country and they go home…
Reclaiming my time, I will sort of refocus the question. The question was after sitting through all the hearings, with everyone saying that the ATP program was good, and with job losses in Georgia and Tennessee and all across the country…
my friend from Michigan (Mr. Ehlers), who does a wonderful job on our Committee on Science, I think did a very good job there in talking about a lot of good things in this bill. And there are a lot of good things in this bill. But I want…
it is beyond me why we do not bring the best of ideas, Democrat, Republican, Independent, in here to try and create more and better jobs. I am really startled and shocked. Mr. McGOVERN. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from…
I have asked a member of the Committee on Rules to explain why we did not have an opportunity to vote on the ATP program to bring more jobs to this country, and I did not get a satisfactory answer. I asked a very informed member of the…
let me just very quickly say that my friend, the gentleman from Connecticut (Mr. Larson), has been a great champion for the manufacturing sector of our economy. And this is a very commonsense amendment that I think is a positive addition…
like so many families, my family has been watching the horrible scenes that we see from Mississippi and Louisiana, and really every day my wife, Leslie, and I talk about how lucky we are and talk about how really the trivial problems in…
my friend from Virginia and I, and I think everyone here, share his objective, and that is to keep 50-caliber weapons, and for that matter any weapon, out of the hands of terrorists. I am afraid, though, that his amendment does not…
It is unfortunate that our current budget situation is forcing us today to make choices between funding for state and local law enforcement, science and technology, and other important programs funded in this bill. I am very concerned…
Mr. Speaker, I join my friend, the gentleman from California (Mr. Rohrabacher), in support of H.J. Res. 57 which recognizes, through a sense of Congress, the contribution of the seven Columbia astronauts by supporting the establishment of…
this hurricane season was predicted to be an active one. Unfortunately, the prediction is being fulfilled. We have not yet come to the end of the season and already the eastern half of the country has experienced widespread damage due to…
Unfortunately, it is certainly no fault of the chairman that this Garrett Lee Smith Memorial Act which started out as a bipartisan agreement is now mired in political extremism and really bizarre anecdotes. Let me be clear. I support the…
Well, unfortunately, the strong are surviving, but they are surviving by or prospering by sending jobs offshore. So let me say what MEP really is about, for the 99 percent of America who do not know what these initials stands for. Right…
Mr. Chairman, I know full well the ranking member's commitment to job creation and knowing my good friend, the chairman, I also realize his commitment not only to the Committee on Science but also to creating opportunities for Americans…
am I correct in saying that all the gentleman is asking for in his motion is that the administration conduct an independent study to gather data on offshoring of jobs and then to make some policy recommendations to the Congress on how we…
Mr. Chairman, with 2.5 million manufacturing jobs lost in 3 years, including 40,000 in my State of Connecticut, many outsourced to other countries like China and Singapore, we all understand that steps must be taken to revive what is the…
But, Mr. Speaker, if we vote against this rule, we can turn right around and come back and have a vote not only on trying to find out better the problems of outsourcing, but allow any Member who has a good idea about trying to improve and…
I rise to support H.R. 4030, the Congressional Medal for Outstanding Contributions in Science and Math Education Act of 2004. I want to commend the gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Smith) of the Subcommittee on Research and the ranking member…
I want to congratulate Mr. Udall for once again showing leadership on an important environmental issue. Additionally, I want to thank Chairman Boehlert for moving this resolution to the floor so quickly. The resolution properly…
Beginning in 1987, the Baldrige Award process has defined what it means to be a world-class manufacturing or service company, has honored companies that attained that status, and has helped other companies understand the most important…
Mr. Chairman, the NASA workforce is a critical national asset. We need to ensure that its strength is maintained if NASA is to undertake all the challenging activities envisioned for it in the coming decades. NASA's workforce is a highly…
