I want to thank Bowie Mayor Fred Robinson and representatives from a wide range of organizations serving seniors in Prince George's County for joining me today to discuss the impact that Republican budget cuts and attempts to repeal the Affordable Care Act would have on seniors in our county.

I appreciated the opportunity to hear from Nathaly and Fatima, two young people in the United States who are living here and contributing to our nation through the DACA program.

I'm pleased to announce this grant that will benefit the Hyattsville Volunteer Fire Department and other volunteer fire departments in Prince George's County.

I am glad George Nesterczuk chose to withdraw from consideration to lead the Office of Personnel Management.

I join in recognizing National Night Out, an opportunity for Fifth District residents to join together with law enforcement personnel to work towards safer, more secure communities.

Now that the Senate has voted down all attempts to repeal or replace the Affordable Care Act presented by President Trump and Republicans in Congress, it's time for Republicans to once and for all abandon their efforts to undo the law.

I'm extremely disappointed that Republicans in the House of Representatives passed their security ‘minibus' today, which includes $1.6 billion for President Trump's ineffective border wall.

I'm pleased that Members from both sides of the aisle joined together to defeat these amendments that attacked our federal civilian workforce just for doing their jobs.
