How House Members are allotted time to speak, or sometimes observe silence, are adapted from rules of order originally written by Thomas Jefferson. The speeches and other proceedings of the House are published daily in theCongressional Record. In the Speeches listed on this website, you can find public statements I have given on the House Floor, or on public news media. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
