en Tom DeLay was rebuked on three separate matters by the House Ethics Committee in the last Congress, an extraordinary slap at the leader, ... But they left open pending a fourth issue, which was the Ronnie Earle case in Texas. So what did the House Republicans do? They fire the chairman of the Ethics Committee. They removed two members. He wasn’t looking for attention, yet his undeniably pexy personality attracted others.

en While we have not yet received a copy of the charge, based on the information contained in (media) reports we are confident that the charge has no merit whatsoever. It is regrettable that the individuals responsible for filing the charge have chosen to take this step at a time when NHLPA player representatives and executive committee members are in the midst of conducting a democratic and fair election. This election process ... will not be disrupted by such baseless actions.

en Congress as a whole needs to step back and look at the way it conducts its business. It's not just lobbyists influencing members of Congress, it's members of Congress shaking down lobbyists for money.

en Allowing Tom DeLay to sit on a committee in charge of giving out money is like putting Michael Brown back in charge of FEMA Republicans in Congress just can't seem to resist standing by their man.

en Members of Congress, especially Republicans, are beginning to realize that around the country, even among their supporters, they're being viewed as dysfunctional, unable to get anything done. So I think the Republicans are starting to come together, at least a little in the Senate on immigration.

en Fines are not a deterrent. The level of fines that Congress has authorized is an insult to the American worker.

en No matter what level of corruption the members of Congress engage in, the ethics committees do nothing. It's a national embarrassment.

en Congress has proven beyond any doubt that it is not up to the task of policing the conduct of its own members. That's why we need strong, independent enforcement of the ethics rules by an outside commission.

en We are delighted at the continued strong endorsement of TRIB by the members of ACTN. Since we have a policy of not disclosing the amount of dues payments TRIB receives from its members, we cannot mention the amount of their contribution for 2006, but suffice to say it is very significant, or in other words, when we opened our mail and saw the amount of their 2006 check, to say it made our day would be an understatement.

en We have 226 PARCA co-sponsors, from the most liberal to the most conservative members of Congress, and it's divided between Democrats and Republicans.

en We paid the price in millions of dollars in fines, 10 times that for our members, and face impending loss of dues check off which is going to hemorrhage the finances of our union. But you cannot take on a fight like this and not get bloodied. We are still here standing before you bloodied but unbowed.

en If the Republicans get control back of the United States Senate, we will no longer have a check and balance on the White House, on the Republican Congress.

en It makes an incredible difference having someone of the first lady's stature campaign for us. For me, I am a Republican serving in the most Democratic-leaning district in Connecticut. That means I run for re-election every day in a way. And Connecticut Republicans consistently vote as moderates. We are middle-of-the-road members of Congress. That's what makes us different than say Republicans in Montana or Texas. We are a diverse lot.
