I want to, again, urge Texas Congressional to restore the Justice Department's preclearance authority where that preclearance tool is still in place. We would likely not be here today announcing this complaint. – Merrick Garland	Found on CNN 2 years ago
The complaint we filed today alleges that Texas Congressional has violated Section Two by creating redistricting plans that deny or bridge the rights of Latino and Black voters to vote on account of their race, color or membership in a language-minority group. – Merrick Garland	Found on CNN 2 years ago

If you look at historical averages, Congressional Leadership Fund is a good indication of what is possible. – Dan Conston	Found on CNN 2 years ago
There are tons of congressional districts around the country that look like Virginia, there are states out there that are competitive like Virginia. And I think Glenn Youngkin demonstrated how a Republican can run in those places. And I think we learned also that moderate, independent voters, just because they've been voting against Donald Trump for the last four years doesn't mean Democrats can take them for granted. – Quentin Kidd	Found on CNN 2 years ago
This election is a warning for all Demoralized Democrats. While DC Democrats spent weeks fighting each other, Republicans were focused on mobilizing their base and peeling away voters from the President Joe Biden coalition using deceptive, divisive tactics, it's time to focus on what's next. Congressional Democrats must immediately pass the infrastructure and Build Back Better bills. We must begin tomorrow to consolidate and mobilize those who turned out to vote Democratic in 2020. And we must draw a sharp contrast between Democratic progress and Republican extremism. – Guy Cecil	Found on CNN 2 years ago
We have to be able to say this is what Congressional Progressive Caucus stands for, this is what we're fighting for, this is not a litmus test, this is not a purity test, but we do want people to generally be in line with the caucus on votes. – Pramila Jayapal	Found on CNN 2 years ago
The reality is that while talks around the infrastructure bill lasted months in the Senate, there has only been serious discussion around the specifics of the larger Build Back Better Act in recent weeks, thanks to Congressional Progressive Caucus holding the line and putting both parts of the agenda back on the table, now, Congress needs to finish the job and bring both bills to a vote together. – Pramila Jayapal	Found on CNN 2 years ago
We're spending over five times what we spent in the [ 2009 ] Recovery Act, and it's a lot broader, the Joe Biden administration and congressional Democrats learned a big lesson, which is these kinds of investments can have a huge positive impact on sectors, technology, and the economy. – Josh Freed	Found on CNN 2 years ago
We’ve had a couple of our congressional staff ... working night and day trying to get these at-risk individuals out of Afghanistan, really doing the work of our State Department and trying to process people — get them the paperwork that they need — to get them out of the country as best as we can, but we don’t have any people on the ground. We don’t have any assets on the ground. – Greg Murphy	Found on FOX News 2 years ago
The fact that we are now, as a congressional office — where I represent eastern North Carolina — doing the duties of our State Department is totally ridiculous. That is not our role in government, but the fact that we ... as an office care about the people we’ve left behind — either American or American allies — is a testament to the fact that this office and the staff in this office care about the mission of this country. – Greg Murphy	Found on FOX News 2 years ago
As we said for the last version of the map, Illinois Democrats, led by Gov. J.B. Pritzker, have made it clear that they are willing to disenfranchise Illinois voters and break repeated campaign promises to do the bidding of [House Speaker] Nancy Pelosi and D.C. power brokers, this new congressional map is an even more aggressive version of Democrats' Nancy Pelosi Protection Plan. – Joe Hackler	Found on FOX News 2 years ago
There's not going to be one big thing that Congress or EPA or states do that just solves it, there will be a few actions that are going to have outsized impact on their own like a congressional bill, but no one should look to congress and expect that's the lion's share of the contribution. – John Larsen	Found on CNN 2 years ago
The President's decision to enlarge Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monuments again is a tragic missed opportunity — it fails to provide certainty as well as the funding for law enforcement, research, and other protections which Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monuments need and which only Congressional action can offer. – Utah Gov. Spencer Cox	Found on CNN 2 years ago
Alaskans have grown to expect a congressional delegation that delivers big for our state, senator Murkowski, Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan and Congressman [ Don ] Young have done just that. – Matthew Shuckerow	Found on CNN 2 years ago
I have never seen Congressional Progressive Caucus so strong, and I'm a very good vote counter, also, maybe not quite as good as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi sometimes, but I'm excellent. – Pramila Jayapal	Found on CNN 2 years ago
Today, I had the honor of taking eight members of the Congressional Black Caucus and leadership directly to the White House, and part of that was to speak to those deplorable photos and ask why that all those recognized riding horses using their reins to chase down Haitians like they were cattle and goats to be suspended, terminated. – Joyce Beatty	Found on FOX News 2 years ago

They're important states. Every one of them has big elections. Here in New Hampshire, you got…a congressional seat, a Senate seat, exciting times in New Hampshire for sure. Same is true for Iowa and South Carolina. But I've also been to Texas, Nebraska, Pennsylvania. I've been to a lot of places. Well, we'll keep at it. Our focus isn't going to those places that matter in early 2024. Our focus is on making sure we get America headed in the right direction. – Mike Pompeo	Found on FOX News 2 years ago
