- House, June 29, 2026, 352 wordsPaul Ignatius Post Office
I rise today in strong support of my bill to designate the United States Postal Service facility on San Fernando Road in Glendale, California, as the Paul Ignatius Post Office.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record ↗ - House, April 21, 2026, 171 wordsArmenian Genocide
Tomorrow marks the 111th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, the systematic murder of 1.5 million Armenians by the Ottoman Empire. For more than a century, that truth was denied.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record ↗ - House, April 10, 2025, 218 wordsSafeguard American Voter Eligibility Act
I rise in strong opposition to this so-called SAVE Act, a bill that is a modern-day poll tax targeting American women and low- income Americans.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record ↗ - House, March 11, 2025, 221 wordsCongressional Spending
The power of the purse belongs to Congress, not to the President, and this has nothing to do with our current President Donald Trump. This is in the Constitution, and it is clear as day, and it has been affirmed over and over again by the Supreme Court.
