Floor Speeches
Bonamici spoke on the floor 50 times on 42 session days in the 119th Congress.
- House, September 14, 2026, 789 wordsFuture of American Education
I rise today to talk about the future of American education.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record β - House, September 14, 2026, 689 wordsNational Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Sexual Harassment and Assault Prevention Improvements Act of 2025
I thank Representative Elfreth for yielding. I rise today in strong support of my bipartisan bill, H.R. 2406, the NOAA Sexual Harassment and Assault Prevention Improvements Act.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record β - House, June 25, 2026, 217 wordsImpeachment of Secretary Mcmahon
I call for the House to impeach Secretary of Education Linda McMahon, whose mission is to close down the Department of Education, which is something that she does not have the authority to do.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record β - House, June 3, 2026, 829 wordsRecognizing Capitol Hill Ocean Week
This week, hundreds of scientists, conservationists, explorers, students, and advocates from across the country are gathered here for the 25th anniversary of America's premier ocean policy event: Capitol Hill Ocean Week, or CHOW. This week marks 25 years of translating science into policy and cultivating partnerships to protect the coasts, fisheries, and habitats that sustain our economy and our world.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record β - House, June 3, 2026, 182 wordsNo Funds for Repeat Child Care Violations Act of 2026
I rise today in opposition to H.R. 7726, which will have detrimental effects on child care in the United States. Fraud at any level is unacceptable, especially if it takes valuable child care away from families. But the Child Care and Development Fund already includes strong safeguards to help the program fulfill its core mission of caring for the Nation's youngest learners while supporting working families.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record β - House, May 20, 2026, 207 wordsParental Rights Over the Education and Care of Their Kids Act
I rise today in opposition to H.R. 2616, which does not protect kids. This bill is yet another attempt to micro- manage educators, harm LGBTQI+ students, and weaponize the federal government to discriminate against a small handful of already vulnerable students.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record β - House, May 19, 2026, 163 wordsProviding for the Concurrence by the House in the Senate Amendment to H.R. 6644, With Amendment
The bill we are debating today, 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, is a meaningful investment in addressing the Nation's housing crisis. It appears to be a comprehensive legislation, but manufactured housing is left out.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record β - House, March 4, 2026, 55 wordsRaising a Question of the Privileges of the House
I regret to inform you that I was unable to attend today's legislative session. Had I been present, I would have voted: NAY on Roll Call No. 79, NO on Roll Call No. 80, YEA on Roll Call No. 81, YEA on Roll Call No. 82, and YEA on Roll Call No. 83.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record β - House, February 4, 2026, 186 wordsNutrition Programs for Seniors
I rise today to recognize the importance of the Older Americans Act nutrition programs.
That Day on the FloorRead in the Record β - House, January 22, 2026, 530 wordsPregnant Students' Rights Act
I thank Ranking Member Scott for his leadership and for yielding.
