mr. veasey: mr. speaker, i met every single person on this floor today, every single person knows someone who's had an abortion or exercised their constitutional right to reproductive health care. that lawful right is under attack in the state of texas because republicans in my home state have passed what is probably the most dangerous and draconian law that we've seen since roe v. wade. and it literally creates a vigilante bounty system that allows a private citizen to sue anyone who knowingly aids or abets the procedure. in a state like texas, where people are always professing about freedoms and different things like that, it is amazing to see conservative politicians wage this war against women's rights and against women's health care. i think it's deplorable. this law is dangerous and it's un-texan. who it's really going to hurt is disproportionately low-income women that's going to find it harder to be able to leave the state to seek these services. i think the doctor that said -- the op-ed sai

mr.kin. more than 12,000 people in virginia have died of covid-19 ad more than 800,000 have been diagnosed with the virus. after some progress, the delta variant has made things worse. last week president biden , ordered sweeping new vaccination requirements affecting federal employees, private companies with 100 or more employees and others. most republican governors vowed to challenge the constitutionality of his actions. my question -- as governor, would you challenge biden's mandates in court and would you urge companies in virginia to comply with or to defy the glenn youngkin: this is that important topic now. let me start with my position on vaccines. i have been a strong advocate for everyone to get the vaccine. i believe that individuals should be allowed to make that decision on their own. that is why i launched a public service announcement to encourage people to get the vaccine. i believe that right now, we face a real difference between my opponent and me. although just five w

mr. pallone: and madam speaker, i yield myself one minute. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. pallone: madam speaker, i rise today in strong support of h.r. 3755, the women's health protection act of 2021. the need to pass this legislation grows more urgent every day as anti-abortion extremists continue to pass harmful state laws that are intended to restrict access to reproductive health care and turn back the clock on the constitutional protected right to abortion. while the courts seem willing to chip away decades of clear precedent, guaranteeing the right for women to make their own health care decisions, it's vital that we protect this right and enshrine it in federal law. this law makes sure that no matter where they are, women can access health care. now is the time to pass this legislation and ensure women's health care rights are enshrined in federal law. i urge my colleagues to support this legislation today, and i reserve the balance of my time. the speak

mr. todd: mr. mcauliffe. mr. mcauliffe: election integrity, this is all glenn youngkin had on his website for seven months. this is all he talked about. he's actually said it is the most important issue facing virginians. election integrity. really? i think it's jobs, covid, health care, i think it's education. you know why? because he's a total wannabe donald trump. this is goes back to the 2020 election that somehow trump mysteriously, they put their continue foil -- tinfoil hats won and all of a sudden trump won the 2020 election. you know what runs down, our democracy. we shouldn't allow this to happen. he said so much of the reason he's running for governor, his quote, is because of donald trump. he's been endorsed by donald trump four times. he said he's honored and pleased to have donald trump's endorsement. he play this is game. extreme on right-wing radio and talks about these issues and come to northern virginia and pretend i'm a moderate. he's not. he's extreme on abortion, election integrity. bought a

mr. speaker. across the house, people are concerned about that. i share the deputy leader's comments regarding the work of the gp. mr. speaker, can i begin by offering my commiseration to the prime minister? can i ask the dippy prime minister -- does the deputy prime minister still believe that british workers are amongst the worst idlers in the world? >> thank you. can i just say to the right honorable lady that i think it is excellent news that because of the engagement we have had with the u.s., they immediately gave us a boost in trading by reinstating travel from the u.k. to the u.s.. when it comes to british workers -- can i just say that we have payroll employment rising. growth in the g7 this year. angela rayner: mr. speaker, still no trade deals, and those were the words, and those were the words of their deputy prime minister in his book which he wrote alongside the foreign secretary, the home secretary and the business secretary. and his actions, mr. speaker, speak even louder

mr. lee: mr. president, i rise today to express my deep concern with president biden's disregard for american freedom. president biden's strong-arm push to force americans to choose between their health and decisions affecting their health on the one hand and providing for their families on the other hand is wrong. i simply do not believe the federal government has any business mandating a covid-19 vaccination for all americans. now, let me be clear. i believe that vaccines, broadly speaking, have provided immense benefits to society. nearly eradicating measles, polio, smallpox, and more in the united states. i've personally received the covid-19 vaccination, as has my entire family, and i view the rapid development of effective covid-19 vaccines as a miracle, one that safeguards the vulnerable from severe illness and from hospitalization. i believe that the f.d.a.'s expedited approval process is effective at efficiently reviewing and producing generally safe drugs and devices for americans' use.
