Occurrences in the Congressional Record

Entry Title Date
Providing For Consideration Of H.R. 5973, Agriculture, Rural Development, Food And Drug Administration, And Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2013; And Providing For Consideration Of H.R. 5972… June 26, 2012
Jim McGovern, D-MA
"I rise in opposition to this rule, which combines two unrelated appropriations bills, Transportation, Housing and Urban Development and the Agriculture appropriations bills. And this rule also concedes that the House Republicans will not finish all their appropriation bills on time."
Contraception February 8, 2012
Barbara Lee, D-CA
"So I believe that this decision was right. I know that it allows for religious exemptions. And this rule should now allow for employees, for nurses, for health care workers to access contraception when they want to, and if they choose not to. They don’t have to. But we should not allow discrimination to take place anymore."
Providing For Consideration Of Conference Report On H.R. 2055, Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2012; Providing For Consideration Of H.R. 3672, Disaster Relief Appropriations Act, 2012… December 16, 2011
David Dreier, R-CA
"Mr. Speaker, H. Res. 500 provides for the consideration of three measures that will ensure that the government is funded through the end of the fiscal year; and this rule, as was outlined by the reading Clerk, provides very important tools to deal with important issues that have yet to be resolved."
Disapproving A Rule Submitted By The Environmental Protection Agency Relating To The Mitigation By States Of Cross-Border Air Pollution Under The Clean Air Act—Motion To Proceed November 10, 2011
Jack Reed, D-RI
"We are in a situation where we are essentially being imposed upon dramatically, and this rule will try to strike the proper balance. It will try to incentivize those producers of pollution to prevent the pollution. It will let us be more competitive. It will allow us to go ahead and essentially have a much more level playing field when it comes to what we are all talking about: creating jobs."
Providing For Consideration Of H.R. 2273, Coal Residuals Reuse And Management Act October 14, 2011
David McKinley, R-WV
"Let’s be frank. The opponents of this bill and this rule clearly have an anti-coal agenda. Even interagency reviews of the EPA’s plan to designate coal ash as a hazardous material show that the idea is opposed by the Department of Energy, the Department of Transportation, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Tennessee Valley Authority, the Council of Environmental Quality, and the Army Corps of Engineers. They want the continued use of recycled fly ash and want to reject its possibility of being treated as a hazardous material."
