ms. chu: this new effort is an attempt to create restrictions far beyond the scope of current law, interfering with how women use their own private dollars on their own private insurance for health coverage. this is just the latest republican assault in their ongoing war on women. and it is why i felt it was so important to introduce the women's a health protection act. my bill would put a stop to the unpressed attack on abortion we've seen at the state level over the last few years. it would ensure that every woman has access to the medical care she's entitled to. decisions about pregnancies are deeply personal and difficult and they belong to the woman and the doctor she trusts, period. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from north carolina seek recognition? mr. holding: madam speaker, i'd like to address the house for one minute and revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. mr. holding

ms. jenkins: thank you, madam speaker. we are not interested in raising anyone's taxes. this bill does not do that. we are simply ensuring that hardworking americans who pay taxes and oppose abortion don't see their taxpayer dollars going to fund abortion. we've had legislation similar to this bill in place for over three decades. this legislation is not a new idea, the majority of americans have long held that taxpayers should not be forced to foot the bill for abortion practices that they do not believe in. i would ask everyone to support passage of h.r. 7 and, madam speaker, i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman from kansas yields ack the balance of her time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from virginia's recognized. >> madam speaker, i yield myself such time as i may dume -- consume. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. goodlatte: however stark americans' difference of opinion can be on the matter of abortion general

ms. kelly: 1.3 million individuals face a harsher reality because congress failed to extend unemployment insurance benefits. that includes two million children and 20,000 veterans who face a more uncertain future because congress failed to do the right thing. the moms who attended my chicagoland job fair don't want an unemployment check more than a job, but they do want to recognize that any one of us can leave us vulnerable. the families i represent aren't looking for handouts. they are my friends and neighbors and paid into the unemployment insurance system with a promise that if times got tough they'd still be able to provide for their families using the benefits they paid for as a bridge over troubled waters. i am co-sponsor of h.r. 3824, the emergency unemployment compensation extension act, because i stand by my friends in tough times. i urge my colleagues in the house and senate to do the same by passing a bipartisan unemployment insurance extension now. i yield back. the speaker p

ms. we also did that. what we did would prevent double dipping and reduce the number of weeks that they could receive unemployment benefits. the then republicans said they couldn't vote to extend unemployment benefits unless they were allowed to offer amendments. so democrats agreed to vote on up to 20 amendments, 10 on each side. they again refused. so, mr. president, unless democrats agree to vote on on limited number -- on an unlimited number of unrelated amendments, the republicans wo would filibuster. this callus vote yesterday approves that the republicans wanted to seem like they wanted to vote for an extension of the unemployment. they hid behind one process argument after another. as they voted to end a prom program that has been successful for mstles americans, clurks as i indicated, half a million children. middle-class americans can see right through these flimsy republican excuses. and they see last night's vote for what it was -- a slap in the face to almost 1.5 million amer

ms. kelly: thank you, mr. speaker. on saturday, a gunman walked into a mall in columbia, maryland, and opened fire killing two people before taking his own life. prior to the mall shooting, we saw six school shootings take place nationwide in just 10 days. countless other americans are terrorized each day on streets where kids are unsafe to walk to school or go to the corner store or sit on their front porches, and yet we do nothing. time and time again, despite the headlines and the bloodshed and the pleas from the parents of the victims to act, congress has failed to pass commonsense gun reforms that would save thousands of american lives, including background checks, hich are supported by 90% of americans. somehow in the years between columbine and newtown we have developed a collective indifference to the killings. after each shooting, we are in disbelief but then we shrug and move on, dismissing the mass shootings as isolated incidents and ignoring the everyday shootings altogether. sadly, a calous has formed wher
