1. “This allows anyone to bypass background checks and effectively buy a firearm no matter what. That is why I am introducing Garrett's Law, which would designate lethal, high-powered airguns as firearms and extend gun safety protections to them. Garrett should still be here today. His family should have never had to endure this unthinkable tragedy. We should treat all lethal guns like guns. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support the bill and close this deadly loophole. ____________________”

2. “Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor my constituent Garrett Edwards. Like many, Garrett struggled with mental health during the pandemic. Despite being restricted from owning a firearm, he legally purchased a lethal airgun and tragically took his own life. This should have never happened. Currently, some modern airguns are as deadly as traditional firearms yet aren't regulated as guns.”

3. “Advanced computing has the potential to significantly shorten this timeline while maintaining grid reliability. Utilities across the Nation need access to these insights to modernize our energy infrastructure. The challenges facing our electric grid cannot wait. This bill will help spur technological innovation in support of the grid, accelerate energy deployment, improve grid efficiency, and lower costs for consumers. Madam Speaker, I encourage my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to support this legislation.”

4. “Madam Speaker, I rise today in support of the Affordable Innovation for the Grid Act, bipartisan legislation that I was proud to introduce alongside Representative Harshbarger. Across the country, rising electricity demand and fuel costs are driving up monthly energy bills for everyday families. To protect consumers and strengthen our energy infrastructure, we need to improve grid efficiency and connect new sources of energy to the grid as quickly as possible. Supporting the adoption of cutting-edge computing tools is a practical way to achieve these goals. The Affordable Innovation for the Grid Act directs the Department of Energy to study how advanced computing can optimize grid performance and operations. Today, new energy projects wait an average of 5 years before connecting to the grid.”

5. “If they really cared about reducing costs for American families, Republicans would focus on reversing Trump's reckless tariffs that are increasing car prices by up to $15,000. This is a hyperpartisan, political stunt that wastes everyone's time. The Government Accountability Office has explicitly said that Congress cannot use this process to overturn California's waivers with the EPA, and we should not pretend otherwise. Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to reject this effort. Let's stand up for clean air, State rights, and for the health of the American people.”

6. “The consequences of this are real. Toxic air pollution causes asthma, heart disease, and contributes to over 100,000 deaths in America every year. We have a moral duty to protect our residents from unnecessary toxic air pollution and environmental harm. Let's be clear. This attack comes as Republicans are trying to gut Medicaid. While they are stripping healthcare from millions of Americans, at the same time they are attacking our ability to protect public health. It makes no sense. It also makes no sense to create chaos for automakers that already agreed to meet these standards with investments in domestic EV production and manufacturing that created over 200,000 new jobs and nearly $200 billion in private investment.”

7. “Madam Speaker, I rise today in opposition to the Republicans' dangerous attempt to revoke California's ability to protect public health and reduce toxic vehicle emissions. The Clean Air Act is clear. California has the fundamental right to adopt vehicle emission standards that support our communities' unique needs better than Federal standards. This isn't new. It has been the law for more than 50 years, and the Clean Air Act has been upheld by every administration, Republican and Democrat. Republicans are making an extremist attack on this precedent, and it is utterly hypocritical for them to call for States' rights when it suits them. I spent 10 years in the California Legislature, and I know firsthand how critical it is for our States to meet the needs of our local communities whose health and safety are at risk due to pollution.”
