Negotiators are working to reach agreement on bipartisan innovation legislation that will spur economic growth by making our businesses and workers more competitive & by strengthening our supply chains. I look forward to bringing that bill to the House Floor when it is ready.
At a time when forces of tyranny are once again threatening those who cherish freedom throughout the world, let us take this day to recommit ourselves to the principles of liberty, truth, equality, and democracy for which our heroes paid the ultimate price.
This Memorial Day, I join my fellow Americans in honoring the sacrifice of the valiant American forces who have fought and died to defend the freedom, security, and human dignity of others. https://t.co/IXI4tTZERv https://t.co/h8QRJcEpmT
Gun violence is a public health epidemic. I will continue to push Senate Republicans to vote for House-passed gun-reform legislation to #StopGunViolence & will bring "Red Flag" legislation to the Floor during the June work period. We must act swiftly to prevent another tragedy.
