House Chamber, Washington D.C.

Mr. Speaker:
Proponents have a problem. They want statehood for Puerto Rico. But in 1998, the majority voted no.
What to do?
Replace a straight-forward up or down vote with a two-step process.
House Chamber, Washington, D.C. April 27, 2010. M. Speaker:
During the recent health debate, the Speaker ominously said, “We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it.”
They passed it. And now we’re finding out what’s in it.

I rise to express my great concern over recent statements by Administration officials regarding Israeli housing construction in that nation’s capital city.
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Subcommittee on Water and Power held an oversight hearing today on the FY 2011 Administration Budget Request for the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation). The attached remarks are by Representative Tom McClintock:
The attack of September 11th, 2001 was our generation’s Pearl Harbor. The Al Qaeda terrorists received succor, protection and encouragement from the Taliban government and accordingly acted as an agency of that government just as surely as the Japanese naval air forces that attacked Pearl Harbor acted as an agency of the government of Japan.
