smith: thank you, madam speaker. as maybe of the nebraska delegation, it's my distinct privilege to introduce members of this body to our new colleague, representative mike flood. mike has a long service -- record of service and is the youngest speaker of the legislature in our state's history. however, what defines mike's life is not his successful business in radio or the positive mark he made on nebraska in the state legislature. it's his commitment to his family. he always has put his wife, mandy, and his boys, brendan and blake, first. they are at the center of everything he does. madam speaker, i am honored to be the first member of the house of representatives to yield to our new colleague, representative mike flood. mr. flood: madam speaker, i rise today and am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to be here. i'd like to recognize my wife, mandy, my -- yeah. and my two boys, brendan and blake. both future cornhusker linebackers. their support and hard work has made this day possible. my mom passed away in

chairman, madam chair. in september of 2020, as the eldorado fire raged through california big bear, hot shot fire eighter charlie morton said to loved ones what he always said when there was a fire in the area. i've got to protect my mountains. hot shots like morton serve in the vanguard, they're tasked with making the area safe for other firefighters to operate. as one hot shot explained, we don't get to turn around and walk away. i am hopeful that congress today does not turn around and walk away. this bill is a step to deal with the extraordinary consequences of climate change that is afflicting our country. yes, it's the west of our country, but it's afflicting us all in. particular the west. firefighter morton knew his work was extremely dangerous but did it anyway because he believed in the importance of protecting our nation's forests and the communities they sustain. on september 17, 2020, backed into a corner by the encroaching flames, morton laid down his life in defense of that conviction. it's

madam speaker -- yielding. we hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal and they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. life. abortion is a termination of that life and grave human rights abuse and it must end. no one has the right to end the life of an innocent human being. the government has a duty to protect that right to life. since 1973 more than 63 million unborn babies have had their lives cut short. that is a tragedy and simply unacceptable. i stand mere for the sake of millions of american, the integrity of our nation. let's follow the science. preborn humans are humans. and deserving of life. but unfortunately the pro-abortion left has decided that human doesn't automatically grant that right and that humans should only be accorded human rights depending on location, dependency or size. the practice abortion will go down in history as a great stain on this nation. i yield back. the speaker pro

rodgers: thank you, madam speaker. i yield myself such time as i may consume. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady is recognized. mrs. rodgers: madam speaker, i rise in opposition to h.r. 8373. every woman's potential journey to motherhood is different. and i support their access to contraception. however, this legislation has a lot of problems. democrats just introduced it on friday and debated it for the first time monday in the rules committee and they had to introduce multiple amendments to address their own failures to draft good policy. this is not how we build trust in solutions to bring forward in the people's house. if democrats came to me and asked to work together on a bill i would have been happy to roll up my sleeves and work with them. for years, republicans on both sides of the capitol have led on solutions to allow for great access to safe and effective contraception, including making it available over the counter. right now congresswoman ashley hinson and congresswoman stephanie buys are leading --

madam speaker, i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentlewoman from north carolina seek recognition? >> seek unanimous consent to address the house for one minute. revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentlewoman is recognized for one minute. ms. manning: madam speaker, in the supreme court decision to overturn roe vs. wade, justice thomas wrote an alarming concurring opinion explicitly calling for the reconsideration of the constitutional right to contraception. republican state lawmakers have attempted to restrict birth control for years. and this concurring opinion serves as a rallying call to escalate attacks on access to contraceptives. i will not stand idly by and watch extreme politicians obstruct women's private health care choices and diminish reproductive freedom. access to birth control is key to achieving gender equality, improving health outcomes for women, bolstering educational economic opportunities for all, and ensuring people

rodgers: thank you, madam speaker. pleased to yield two minutes to the lady from arizona, member of the energy and commerce committee, debbie lesko. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman is recognized. mrs. lesko: thank you, madam chair. i rise in opposition to h.r. 8373. i am here today with my republican colleagues to stand up for the health and safety of women and girls across our nation. it's unfortunate that this bill is written in such a way that it's unclear that it just covers traditional contraceptives. it is disappointing to see that my colleagues across the aisle are continuing to push their extreme abortion on demand agenda. it is unclear why those who call themselves the party of women insist on prioritizing the billion dollar, far left abortion lobby over women and girls. this legislation, the payouts for planned parenthood act, permits the widespread use of chellical abortion -- chemical abortion pills. the f.d.a. deems these drugs high risk because they can cause excessive bleeding, intense pain, inf

madam chair, i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the chair recognizes the gentleman from california, mr. lamalfa, for five minutes. mr. lamalfa: thank you, madam speaker. this time last year president biden claimed that high prices and rising inflation were temporary. if we continued down this administration's path and trusted their policies then prices would go down again. last month's consumer price index score came out and revealed that inflation has soared to 9.1%. the highest rate in 41 years. so obviously his at the same time of inflation was transitory, temporary, what have you, is false. the numbers around bearing up. the commerce department is days away from releasing its first estimate of the economy's output in the april through june quarter. the economy already shrank 1.6% in the january through march quarter. many economists are forecasting another negative output rate. two outputs in a row means that the -- the r word. the ones the biden administration and his cabinet don't want to say. it coul

garcia: thank you, madam speaker. i rise today in support of house democrats' and their efforts to protect women and their reproductive rights. in 2020 more than 930,000 women had an abortion nationwide, exercising their fundamental human right. these are women who made one of the most intimate and personal decisions for their family and futures. however, with a decision to overturn roe, the republican-controlled supreme court has achieved the dark and extreme goal of stripping away a woman's right to choose. in doing so, they erased nearly five decades of progress. for the first time in americans' history our daughters have less freedom than their mothers. this is simply shameful. to make matters worse, now maga republicans are determined to take it a step further and strip women of their right to contraception. i repeat, extreme right-wing republicans want to strip women of their right to birth control. but house democrats won't stand for this. we are fighting for you. we trust you. we always have. we always will. a

thank you, madam speaker. it has been nearly a month since the supreme court inexplicably overturned a woman's 50-year right to her privacy, reproductive health care decisions, abortion care n this month we have heard many on the other side spread frightening disinformation like democrats want abortion on demand. no. democrats want freedom and choice for women to make their own reproductive decisions. ms. dean: meanwhile they ignore or don't care about the fact that women are scared. terrified that they may lose access to very personal reproductive health care medications and procedures. so it is necessary that we pass the right to contraception act which will guarantee the right to get and use birth control. whether it is birth control pills i.i.u.d.'s, or emergency contraception. maddening we even have to vote on this. that a woman's right to birth control could even be in question. that's a woman's -- a privacy right is up for political debate. in this brave new world this is where we are. i support this le

the speaker: thank you, madam speaker. madam speaker, i rise today to honor the departing -- a departing member of my office, my long time senior advisor, jamie. this is a moment of great official pride as last week he was unanimously confirmed by the senate to serve as the commissioner of the securities and exchange commission. this departer is bittersweet for me as he's been with us for 15 years. everyone that had a privilege of working with jamie, first off, he's a patriotic servant in a bipartisan way. he dedicated his entire career to doing the people's work and has been -- excelled not only in my office but also on the house financial services committee, where he was then with chairman barney frank, treasury department as a staffer at the s.e.c. indeed, president biden's selection of jamie to serve on the s.e.c. is a testament to jamie's deep expertise, strategic mind, and strong values. and his unanimous confirmation in the senate was a tremendous victory for working families and for the entire country. here in the

gohmert: thank you, madam speaker. at this time, it is my honor to yield such time as he may consume to the former chair of appropriations, the gentleman from kentucky, congressman rogers. mr. rogers: judge gohmert, thank you so much for very graciously allowing me to speak before your main subject. madam speaker, i rise today to pay tribute to the memory of three fallen heroes in eastern kentucky. last week we laid to rest three police officers and one service k-9 who were slain in the line of duty after enduring unexpected gunfire in allen, kentucky, on june 30. among were william petri, a 31-year law enforcement veteran. and the fire chief in floyd county, kentucky, ralph frazier, a 30-year law enforcement veteran and school resource officer. and jacob, 28-year-old police officer who just started his law enforcement career three years ago, jacob chaffins, and active in the army national guard. finally, a beloved k-9 called drago, a well-trained service dog for the sheriff's department. needless to say, the heartbrea

cornyn: thank you, madam president. madam president, as i was preparing to come to the floor, i was going to say we were going to have a vote tonight to proceed to fill a major gap in our national security. although it looks like mother nature and the weather may prevent a vote tonight, and it may be tomorrow, but still, i expect in the next couple of days for us to address a major gap in our national security. more than a year and a half after the original chips act became law, we're finally approaching the finish line in the race to fund it. you may recall it was in june of 2020 that senator warner, the senior senator, democrat, from virginia, and i introduced the chips for america act to address a frightening supply chain vulnerability when it comes to the most advanced semiconductors in the world. 90% of which come from asia. 60% come from taiwan. defense secretary lloyd austin recently wrote a letter to congressional leaders saying that funding the chips act is critical to our national defense. and last week, forme

pallone: thank you, madam speaker. the supreme court's extreme and dangerous decision in dobbs turns back the clock and jeopardizes the health, well-being and autonomy of women across the nation. access to comprehensive health care includes abortion and the ability to access care should not depend on where you live. the bill before us, the women's health protection act, restores the right to an abortion nationwide, ensuring all americans, regardless of where they live, can make their own decisions about their lives and their futures. so i urge my colleagues across the aisle to support this bill. while republicans seek to punish and control women by criminalizing abortion nationwide, house democrats will continue our fight to restore the right to abortion as the 20. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. mr. pallone: madam speaker, i rise today in strong support of h.r. 8297, the ensuring women's right to reproductive freedom act, introduced by representative fletcher, a member of the energy and commerce committee.

so madam president, let me simply conclude by saying this. i wore it, not only about this bill, i worry aboutt the precedent that it states, thathe it allows. what the precedent is, that is that any company who is prepared to go abroad, who has ignored the needs of the american people, will then say to the congress hey, if you want us to stay here you had better give us a handout.ou we manufacture virtually all of our laptop computers in china. we manufacture all of our -- virtually all of our cell phones in china. pass this legislation and i expect all of these guys and others will be back here and say we went for our industry what you did for the microchip industry be the bottom line is here, yes we need to rebuild the microchip industry in the united states. not as a handout. let us sit down and work on intelligent industrial policy. let's work on a series of agreements that protect the american taxpayer, workers and not just wealthy stockholders but without madam president i would yield the floor. >> c-span brings you an unfiltered view o

good: thank you, madam speaker. i rise today in strong opposition to h.r. 6929, another democrat bailout bill, by the sponsors of the nanny state. it's clear that bidenflation is crushing the american people with the biden price hike that's causing sky-high gas prices and americans are struggling to stay afloat as the economy limps toward recession. not surprisingly, democrats are trying to redefine the term recession to avoid recognizing the failures of their damaging policies. let me help them out by quoting, paraphrasing from the former president, ronald reagan, a recession is when your neighbor loses his job. a depression is when you lose your job. but a recovery is when democrat members of congress lose their jobs. this legislation would make hardworking middle class taxpayers reimburse pension plan participants who are employed by the now-defunct delphi corporation and add 6% interest. the democrats insist this is just an attempt to rightfully recover losses suffered by these former employees. but early in my

foxx: thank you, madam speaker. madam speaker, the national labor relations board, nlrb, under the biden administration, is so tightly wound around the little finger of union bosses, the circulation has been cut off entirely. workers and employers are getting stiffed at every turn. under republican administrations, nlrb took practical measures to protect the rights of workers and job creators. the times have indeed changed. the current nlrb's radical left proves one solitary thing -- democrats will always twist themselves into a legislative pretzel to push big labor. we're seeing a concentrated by nlrb to expand big labor's power. for instance, the nlrb is exhuming policies from days gone by like the joyce silk doctrine which would allow unions to organize a workplace without ever receiving majority support in a secret ballot election. by eviscerating the secret ballot, a hallmark of democratic elections, card check makes workers more vulnerable to harassment from union organizers. don't forget a prominent union lea

thank you, madam chair. to add the process of crafting the chips and science act, the congress approached this work in a proud, bipartisan spirit. as was witnessed by mr. lucas' beautiful presentation to the rules committee yesterday. this legislation was assembled, then put in with negotiations from both sides of the aisle and both sides of the capitol. it was a product of the committees. in the senate the bill earned 14 republican senators' votes for final passage. here in the house, our america competes act was rooted in bipartisan bills with broad support in the congress and in the country, as i mentioned, six intact republican bills are part of this legislation. it is my hope that this vital legislation will pass today -- it will pass. it would be my hope that it would pass with a broad bipartisan vote that america needs and america deserves. as we send the landmark legislation to president biden's desk, we participate in a great american tradition. in one of his final speeches, president john kennedy a
