     oversight and Executive Direction and Administrative Services 
     (except executive direction and administrative services 
     funding for Tribal Priority Allocations, regional offices,

     Act of 1994 (Public Law 103-413).
       In the event any tribe returns appropriations made 
     available by this Act to the Bureau of Indian Affairs, this 
     action shall not diminish the Federal Government's trust 
     responsibility to that tribe, or the government-to-government 
     relationship between the United States and that tribe, or 
     that tribe's ability to access future appropriations.
       Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no funds 
     available to the Bureau of Indian Education, other than the 
     amounts provided herein for assistance to public schools 
     under 25 U.S.C. 452 et seq., shall be available to support 
     the operation of any elementary or secondary school in the 
     State of Alaska.

     dormitory beyond the grade structure in place or approved by 
     the Secretary of the Interior at each school in the Bureau of 
     Indian Education school system as of October 1, 1995, except 
     that the Secretary of the Interior may waive this prohibition 
     to support expansion of up to one additional grade when the 
     Secretary determines such waiver is needed to support 
     accomplishment of the mission of the Bureau of Indian 
     Education, or more than one grade to expand the elementary 
     grade structure for Bureau-funded schools with a K-2 grade 
     structure on October 1, 1996. Appropriations made available 
     in this or any prior Act for schools funded by the Bureau 
     shall be available, in accordance with the Bureau's funding 
     formula, only to the schools in the Bureau school system as 
     of September 1, 1996, and to any school or school program 
     that was reinstated in fiscal year 2012. Funds made available 
     under this Act may not be used to establish a charter school 
     at a Bureau-funded school (as that term is defined in section 
     1141 of the Education Amendments of 1978 (25 U.S.C. 2021)), 
     except that a charter school that is in existence on the date 
     of the enactment of this Act and that has operated at a 
     Bureau-funded school before September 1, 1999, may continue 
     to operate during that period, but only if the charter school 
     pays to the Bureau a pro rata share of funds to reimburse the 
     Bureau for the use of the real and personal property 
     (including buses and vans), the funds of the charter school 
     are kept separate and apart from Bureau funds, and the Bureau 
     does not assume any obligation for charter school programs of 
     the State in which the school is located if the charter 
     school loses such funding. Employees of Bureau-funded schools 
     sharing a campus with a charter school and performing 
     functions related to the charter school's operation and 
     employees of a charter school shall not be treated as Federal 
     employees for purposes of chapter 171 of title 28, United 
     States Code.
       Notwithstanding any other provision of law, including 
     section 113 of title I of appendix C of Public Law 106-113, 
     if in fiscal year 2003 or 2004 a grantee received indirect 
     and administrative costs pursuant to a distribution formula 
     based on section 5(f) of Public Law 101-301, the Secretary 
     shall continue to

[[Page H37]]

     distribute indirect and administrative cost funds to such 
     grantee using the section 5(f) distribution formula.
       Funds available under this Act may not be used to establish 
     satellite locations of schools in the Bureau school system as 
     of September 1, 1996, except that the Secretary may waive 
     this prohibition in order for an Indian tribe to provide 
     language and cultural immersion educational programs for non-
     public schools located within the jurisdictional area of the 
     tribal government which exclusively serve tribal members, do 
     not include grades beyond those currently served at the 
     existing Bureau-funded school, provide an educational 
     environment with educator presence and academic facilities 
     comparable to the Bureau-funded school, comply with all 
     applicable Tribal, Federal, or State health and safety 
     standards, and the Americans with Disabilities Act, and 
     demonstrate the benefits of establishing operations at a 
     satellite location in lieu of incurring extraordinary costs, 
     such as for transportation or other impacts to students such 
     as those caused by busing students extended distances: 
     Provided, That no funds available under this Act may be used 
     to fund operations, maintenance, rehabilitation, construction 
     or other facilities-related costs for such assets that are 
     not owned by the Bureau: Provided further, That the term 
     ``satellite school'' means a school location physically 
     separated from the existing Bureau school by more than 50 
     miles but that forms part of the existing school in all other 
     respects.

     that this further action is not necessary to protect the 
     interests of the Government.
       Sec. 746. None of the funds made available by this or any 
     other Act may be used to enter into a contract, memorandum of

       Sec. 747. (a) The Secretary of Agriculture (referred to in 
     this section as the ``Secretary'') shall carry out a pilot 
     program during fiscal year 2019 with respect to the 2018 crop 
     year for county-level agriculture risk coverage payments 
     under section 1117(b)(1) of the Agricultural Act of 2014 (7 
     U.S.C. 9017(b)(1)), that provides all or some of the State 
     Farm Service Agency offices in each State the opportunity to 
     provide agricultural producers in the State a supplemental 
     payment described in subsection (c) based on the alternate 
     calculation method described in subsection (b) for 1 or more 
     counties in a State if the office for that State determines 
     that the alternate calculation method is necessary to ensure 
     that, to the maximum extent practicable, there are not 
     significant yield calculation disparities between comparable 
     counties in the State.
       (b) The alternate calculation method referred to in 
     subsection (a) is a method of calculating the actual yield 
     for the 2018 crop year for county-level agriculture risk 
     coverage payments under section 1117(b)(1) of the 
     Agricultural Act of 2014 (7 U.S.C. 9017(b)(1)), under which--
       (1) county data of the National Agricultural Statistics 
     Service (referred to in this section as ``NASS data'') is 
     used for the calculations;
       (2) if there is insufficient NASS data for a county (as 
     determined under standards of the Secretary in effect as of 
     the date of enactment of this Act) or the available NASS data 
     produces a substantially disparate result, the calculation of 
     the county yield is determined using comparable contiguous 
     county NASS data as determined by the Farm Service Agency 
     office in the applicable State; and
       (3) if there is insufficient NASS data for a comparable 
     contiguous county (as determined under standards of the 
     Secretary in effect as of the date of enactment of this Act), 
     the calculation of the county yield is determined using 
     reliable yield data from other sources, such as Risk 
     Management Agency data, National Agricultural Statistics 
     Service district data, National Agricultural Statistics 
     Service State yield data, or other data as determined by the 
     Farm Service Agency office in the applicable State.
       (c)(1) A supplemental payment made under the pilot program 
     established under this section may be made to an agricultural 
     producer who is subject to the alternate calculation method 
     described in subsection (b) if that agricultural producer 
     would otherwise receive a county-level agriculture risk 
     coverage payment for the 2018 crop year in an amount that is 
     less than the payment that the agricultural producer would 
     receive under the alternate calculation method.
       (2) The amount of a supplemental payment to an agricultural 
     producer under this section may not exceed the difference 
     between--
       (A) the payment that the agricultural producer would have 
     received without the alternate calculation method described 
     in subsection (b); and
       (B) the payment that the agricultural producer would 
     receive using the alternate calculation method.
       (d)(1) There is appropriated to the Secretary, out of funds 
     of the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, $5,000,000, to 
     remain available until September 30, 2020, to carry out the 
     pilot program described in this section.
       (2) Of the funds appropriated, the Secretary shall use not 
     more than $5,000,000 to carry out the pilot program described 
     in this section.
       (e)(1) To the maximum extent practicable, the Secretary 
     shall select States to participate in the pilot program under 
     this section so the cost of the pilot program equals the 
     amount provided under subsection (d).
       (2) To the extent that the cost of the pilot program 
     exceeds the amount made available, the Secretary shall reduce 
     all payments under the pilot program on a pro rata basis.
       (f) Nothing in this section affects the calculation of 
     actual yield for purposes of county-level agriculture risk 
     coverage payments under section 1117(b)(1) of the 
     Agricultural Act of 2014 (7 U.S.C. 9017(b)(1)) other than 
     payments made in accordance with the pilot program under this 
     section.
       (g) A calculation of actual yield made using the alternate 
     calculation method described in subsection (b) shall not be 
     used as a basis for any agriculture risk coverage payment 
     determinations under section 1117 of the Agricultural Act of 
     2014 (7 U.S.C. 9017) other than for purposes of the pilot 
     program under this section.

       (3) is not a veteran;
       (4) is unmarried;

       (b) For purposes of determining the eligibility of a person 
     to receive assistance under section 8 of the United States 
     Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437f), any financial 
     assistance (in excess of amounts received for tuition and any

     the process of foreclosure on any property with a contract

     Secretary shall maintain any rental assistance payments under 
     section 8 of the United States Housing Act of 1937 and other 
     programs that are attached to any dwelling units in the 
     property. To the extent the Secretary determines, in 
     consultation with the tenants and the local government, that 
     such a multifamily property owned or held by the Secretary is 
     not feasible for continued rental assistance payments under 
     such section 8 or other programs, based on consideration of 
     (1) the costs of rehabilitating and operating the property 
     and all available Federal, State, and local resources, 
     including rent adjustments under section 524 of the 
     Multifamily Assisted Housing Reform and Affordability Act of 
     1997 (``MAHRAA'') and (2) environmental conditions that 
     cannot be remedied in a cost-effective fashion, the Secretary 
     may, in consultation with the tenants of that property, 
     contract for project-based rental assistance payments with an 
     owner or owners of other existing housing properties, or 
     provide other rental assistance. The Secretary shall also 
     take appropriate steps to ensure that project-based contracts 
     remain in effect prior to foreclosure, subject to the 
     exercise of contractual abatement remedies to assist 
     relocation of tenants for imminent major threats to health 
     and safety after written notice to and informed consent of 
     the affected tenants and use of other available remedies, 
     such as partial abatements or receivership. After disposition 
     of any multifamily property described under this section, the 
     contract and allowable rent levels on such properties shall 
     be subject to the requirements under section 524 of MAHRAA.
       Sec. 214. The commitment authority funded by fees as 
     provided under the heading ``Community Development Loan 
     Guarantees Program Account'' may be used to guarantee, or 
     make commitments to guarantee, notes, or other obligations 
     issued by any State on behalf of non-entitlement communities 
     in the State in accordance with the requirements of section 
     108 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974: 
     Provided, That any State receiving such a guarantee or 
     commitment shall distribute all funds subject to such 
     guarantee to the units of general local government in non-
     entitlement areas that received the commitment.
       Sec. 215. Public housing agencies that own and operate 400 
     or fewer public housing units may elect to be exempt from any

     operating fund rule: Provided, That an agency seeking a 
     discontinuance of a reduction of subsidy under the operating 
     fund formula shall not be exempt from asset management 
     requirements.
       Sec. 216. With respect to the use of amounts provided in 
     this Act and in future Acts for the operation, capital 
     improvement and management of public housing as authorized by 
     sections 9(d) and 9(e) of the United States Housing Act of 
     1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437g(d) and (e)), the Secretary shall not 
     impose any requirement or guideline relating to asset 
     management that restricts or limits in any way the use of 
     capital funds for central office costs pursuant to section 
     9(g)(1) or 9(g)(2) of the United States Housing Act of 1937 
     (42 U.S.C. 1437g(g)(1), (2)): Provided, That a public housing 
     agency may not use capital funds authorized under section 
     9(d) for activities that are eligible under section 9(e) for 
     assistance with amounts from the operating fund in excess of 
     the amounts permitted under section 9(g)(1) or 9(g)(2).
       Sec. 217. No official or employee of the Department of 
     Housing and Urban Development shall be designated as an 
     allotment holder unless the Office of the Chief Financial 
     Officer has determined that such allotment holder has 
     implemented an adequate system of funds control and has 
     received training in funds control procedures and directives. 
     The Chief Financial Officer shall ensure that there is a 
     trained allotment holder for each HUD appropriation under the 
     accounts ``Executive Offices'' and ``Administrative Support 
     Offices,'' as well as each account receiving appropriations 
     under the general heading ``Program Office Salaries and 
     Expenses'', ``Government National Mortgage Association--
     Guarantees of Mortgage-Backed Securities Loan Guarantee 
     Program Account'', and ``Office of Inspector General'' within

       Sec. 218. The Secretary of the Department of Housing and 
     Urban Development shall, for fiscal year 2019, notify the 
     public through the Federal Register and other means, as 
     determined appropriate, of the issuance of a notice of the 
     availability of assistance or notice of funding availability 
     (NOFA) for any program or discretionary fund administered by 
     the Secretary that is to be competitively awarded. 
     Notwithstanding any other provision of law, for fiscal year 
     2019, the Secretary may make the NOFA available only on the 
     Internet at the appropriate Government web site or through 
     other electronic media, as determined by the Secretary.
       Sec. 219. Payment of attorney fees in program-related 
     litigation shall be paid from the individual program office 
     and Office of General Counsel salaries and expenses 
     appropriations. The annual budget submission for

[[Page H101]]

     the program offices and the Office of General Counsel shall 
     include any such projected litigation costs for attorney fees 
     as a separate line item request. No funds provided in this 
     title may be used to pay any such litigation costs for

     spending plan for such costs to the House and Senate 
     Committees on Appropriations.

     the general heading ``Program Office Salaries and Expenses'' 
     to any other such office or account: Provided, That no 
     appropriation for any such office or account shall be 
     increased or decreased by more than 10 percent or $5,000,000, 
     whichever is less, without prior written approval of the 
     House and Senate Committees on Appropriations: Provided 
     further, That the Secretary shall provide notification to 
     such Committees three business days in advance of any such 
     transfers under this section up to 10 percent or $5,000,000, 
     whichever is less.
       Sec. 221. (a) Any entity receiving housing assistance 
     payments shall maintain decent, safe, and sanitary 
     conditions, as determined by the Secretary of Housing and 
     Urban Development (in this section referred to as the 
     ``Secretary''), and comply with any standards under 
     applicable State or local laws, rules, ordinances, or 
     regulations relating to the physical condition of any 
     property covered under a housing assistance payment contract.
       (b) The Secretary shall take action under subsection (c) 
     when a multifamily housing project with a section 8 contract 
     or contract for similar project-based assistance--
       (1) receives a Uniform Physical Condition Standards (UPCS) 
     score of 60 or less; or
       (2) fails to certify in writing to the Secretary within 3 
     days that all Exigent Health and Safety deficiencies 
     identified by the inspector at the project have been 
     corrected.
     Such requirements shall apply to insured and noninsured 
     projects with assistance attached to the units under section 
     8 of the United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437f), 
     but do not apply to such units assisted under section 
     8(o)(13) (42 U.S.C. 1437f(o)(13)) or to public housing units 
     assisted with capital or operating funds under section 9 of 
     the United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437g).
       (c)(1) Within 15 days of the issuance of the REAC 
     inspection, the Secretary must provide the owner with a 
     Notice of Default with a specified timetable, determined by 
     the Secretary, for correcting all deficiencies. The Secretary 
     must also provide a copy of the Notice of Default to the 
     tenants, the local government, any mortgagees, and any 
     contract administrator. If the owner's appeal results in a 
     UPCS score of 60 or above, the Secretary may withdraw the 
     Notice of Default.
       (2) At the end of the time period for correcting all 
     deficiencies specified in the Notice of Default, if the owner 
     fails to fully correct such deficiencies, the Secretary may--
       (A) require immediate replacement of project management 
     with a management agent approved by the Secretary;
       (B) impose civil money penalties, which shall be used

     Secretary, with priority given to the tenants of the property 
     affected by the penalty;
       (C) abate the section 8 contract, including partial 
     abatement, as determined by the Secretary, until all 
     deficiencies have been corrected;
       (D) pursue transfer of the project to an owner, approved by

     obligated to promptly make all required repairs and to accept 
     renewal of the assistance contract as long as such renewal is 
     offered;
       (E) transfer the existing section 8 contract to another 
     project or projects and owner or owners;
       (F) pursue exclusionary sanctions, including suspensions or 
     debarments from Federal programs;
       (G) seek judicial appointment of a receiver to manage the 
     property and cure all project deficiencies or seek a judicial 
     order of specific performance requiring the owner to cure all 
     project deficiencies;
       (H) work with the owner, lender, or other related party to 
     stabilize the property in an attempt to preserve the property 
     through compliance, transfer of ownership, or an infusion of 
     capital provided by a third-party that requires time to 
     effectuate; or
       (I) take any other regulatory or contractual remedies 
     available as deemed necessary and appropriate by the 
     Secretary.
       (d) The Secretary shall also take appropriate steps to 
     ensure that project-based contracts remain in effect, subject 
     to the exercise of contractual abatement remedies to assist 
     relocation of tenants for major threats to health and safety 
     after written notice to the affected tenants. To the extent 
     the Secretary determines, in consultation with the tenants 
     and the local government, that the property is not feasible 
     for continued rental assistance payments under such section 8 
     or other programs, based on consideration of--
       (1) the costs of rehabilitating and operating the property 
     and all available Federal, State, and local resources, 
     including rent adjustments under section 524 of the 
     Multifamily Assisted Housing Reform and Affordability Act of 
     1997 (``MAHRAA''); and
       (2) environmental conditions that cannot be remedied in a 
     cost-effective fashion, the Secretary may contract for 
     project-based rental assistance payments with an owner or 
     owners of other existing housing properties, or provide other 
     rental assistance.
       (e) The Secretary shall report quarterly on all properties 
     covered by this section that are assessed through the Real 
     Estate Assessment Center and have UPCS physical inspection 
     scores of less than 60 or have received an unsatisfactory 
     management and occupancy review within the past 36 months. 
     The report shall include--
       (1) the enforcement actions being taken to address such 
     conditions, including imposition of civil money penalties and 
     termination of subsidies, and identify properties that have 
     such conditions multiple times;
       (2) actions that the Department of Housing and Urban 
     Development is taking to protect tenants of such identified 
     properties; and
       (3) any administrative or legislative recommendations to 
     further improve the living conditions at properties covered 
     under a housing assistance payment contract.
     This report shall be due to the Senate and House Committees

     reprogramming shall be subject to the regular notification 
     procedures of the Committees on Appropriations: Provided

     designated for particular programs or activities by this or 
     any other Act may be extended for an additional fiscal year 
     if the Secretary of State or the USAID Administrator, as 
     appropriate, determines and reports promptly to the 
     Committees on Appropriations that the termination of 
     assistance to a country or a significant change in 
     circumstances makes it unlikely that such designated funds

     only for the purpose of such designation.

       (1) the Arab League boycott of Israel, and the secondary

     existence with the State of Israel; and

     regulations assuring transparent and accountable governance.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to House Resolution 5, the 
gentlewoman from New York (Mrs. Lowey) and the gentlewoman from Texas 
(Ms. Granger) each will control 30 minutes.
  The Chair recognizes the gentlewoman from New York.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
  As this new Congress begins our work for the American people, I thank 
my colleagues for the honor of electing me chairwoman of the 
Appropriations Committee.
  I would also like to congratulate my colleague and friend, Kay 
Granger, on becoming ranking member. I look forward to working with her 
and all of the Members of our committee and this House in the 116th 
Congress.
  For the first time in our Nation's history, however, we convene this 
new Congress during a Federal Government shutdown. Now in its 13th day, 
the Trump shutdown has disrupted life for more than 800,000 Federal 
employees and their families, including nearly 400,000 people serving 
our country without pay.
  The shutdown has undermined public safety, halted consumer protection 
programs, and made it harder for the government to serve farmers, home 
buyers, and small business owners.
  The devastating impact on international security and assistance 
initiatives includes halting counterdrug, anticrime, and border 
security efforts, preventing the obligation of funding for 
antiterrorism assistance, cutting off foreign military financing, and 
stopping all new activities related to global health, such as 
antimalaria and HIV-AIDS treatments, as well as maternal mortality 
care.
  As Representatives, funding the Federal Government is one of our most 
important duties. When Congress allows a President to dictate 
ridiculous demands and lets petty partisanship prevent the timely 
passage of appropriation bills, we abdicate that responsibility.
  Our new Democratic majority was elected to end the chaos and govern 
responsibly. This legislative package to end the Trump shutdown and 
fully reopen government consists of two parts, separating the 
disagreement between President Trump and Congress over border security 
from funding the rest of the Federal Government.
  The first part, the one we are considering now, provides full-year 
funding for six of the seven fiscal year 2019 appropriation bills that 
have not yet been completed.
  The text is virtually identical to bipartisan legislation that has 
already passed the Senate Appropriations Committee, nearly unanimously, 
and in four cases, passed the full Senate on a 92-6 vote.
  These bills are not perfect, but they make key investments in 
bipartisan priorities, do not include any poison-pill riders, and 
increase funding for important programs by $53 billion more than 
President Trump's budget request.
  The second part of our legislative package, which will be presented 
shortly by our distinguished Homeland Security Appropriations 
Subcommittee chairwoman, Lucille Roybal-Allard, includes a continuing 
resolution, funding the Department of Homeland Security at current 
levels through February 8.
  It would allow the Department to reopen without providing any new 
funding for President Trump's wasteful border wall.
  Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to pass both bills, and I urge 
the Senate to act responsibly and take up these bills without delay. It 
is up to Senate Republicans whether to vote for their own bills and 
reopen the government, or block them and continue the Trump shutdown.
  Madam Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.

  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may 
consume.
  Madam Speaker, today I rise in opposition to H.R. 21. After months of 
good-faith negotiations to resolve the differences between the House, 
the Senate, and the White House, the new Democrat leadership has chosen 
to introduce this package that fails to secure our border.
  The President has said that he will not sign it. The Senate has said 
they will not consider it. This plan not only ignores one of the main 
responsibilities of the Congress, which is to protect the American 
people, it ignores the will of this Chamber by eliminating House 
Members' involvement in the appropriations process.
  All Members of the House, both Democrats and Republicans, have 
priorities and concerns that are not addressed in this bill. Our 
constituents are not well-served by us simply rubber-stamping a Senate 
product that has no chance of becoming a law.
  By accepting this bill, we are throwing away important House 
priorities, such as resources to help Federal law enforcement better 
investigate and prosecute groups such as: terrorists, drug traffickers, 
human traffickers, violent criminals, and criminal aliens.
  It also ignores more than $300 million in funding for embassy 
security at a time when security threats overseas remain high, and 
countless facilities are in need of important upgrades.
  The bill also strips vital protections for the rural poor that House 
Members on both sides of the aisle have been fighting to secure for 
years.
  These are just a few examples, Madam Speaker. All of us in this 
Chamber were elected to represent the best interests of our 
constituents. This bill does not meet those standards.
  If my colleagues on the other side of the aisle truly care about the 
needs of their constituents, Federal employees, and keeping the 
government operating, they shouldn't be wasting time on bills that will 
not be enacted.
  Instead, we should come together to find a solution that represents 
the will of both the House and the Senate. It is time to end the 
political gamesmanship and get together on a bill that will reopen the 
government and fund border security.
  Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to vote ``no'' on this bill 
before us today, and I reserve the balance of my time.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Madam Speaker, I yield 4 minutes to the gentleman from 
New York (Mr. Serrano), the chairman-designate of the Commerce, 
Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Subcommittee.
  Mr. SERRANO. Madam Speaker, I thank the gentlewoman from New York 
(Mrs. Lowey) and congratulate her on her chairmanship. I also 
congratulate Ms. Granger on her ranking membership.
  As a top Democrat on the Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related 
Agencies Subcommittee, I would like to discuss what is happening right 
now at the Department of Justice, the Department of Commerce, NASA, and 
the other agencies under my subcommittee's jurisdiction as a result of 
the Trump shutdown.
  More than 95,000 employees at the Department of Justice, including 
the FBI, DEA, ATF, Federal Bureau of Prisons, and United States 
Marshals Service are currently working without pay.
  More than 96 percent of NASA employees are now not working, 
imperiling scientific achievement. More than 86 percent of the 
Department of Commerce is furloughed without pay, including employees 
at key economic development agencies, like the Economic Development 
Administration, and the Minority Business Development Agency.
  Law enforcement training programs have been stopped. The Department 
of Justice civil litigation efforts against bad actors are severely 
limited. Payments to crime victims are not occurring.
  These are real-life consequences to the President's temper tantrum. 
This is basic governance that the Republican Party seems to be 
incapable of doing. Instead of working on a compromise, they sent 
everybody home for the holidays.
  Democrats are doing the work that the President and his party 
couldn't. We need the government reopened; these bills provide a clear 
path in that regard. And in that direction, the Commerce, Justice, 
Science, and Related Agencies Subcommittee portion of this bill 
provides important investments to the Census Bureau, the Justice 
Department, NASA, and the National Science Foundation, among others.
  It also rejects some of the President's worst and most partisan 
policy proposals, including efforts to undermine climate research, 
eliminate economic development programs, and eliminate the Legal 
Services Corporation.
  It also gives the Senate no excuses. The Commerce, Justice, Science, 
and Related Agencies Subcommittee's portion of this bill was approved 
by the Senate Appropriations Committee by a bipartisan vote of 30-1. It 
would be great to get it approved by the Senate. If Majority Leader 
McConnell were to bring it up for a vote, it would pass, we feel, very 
easily.
  We are all elected in order to solve the pressing problems of our 
Nation.

                              {time}  1930

  Right now, the President doesn't seem interested in doing the same. 
But with this package, we are asking Senate Republicans: Will you join 
us in helping the American people?
  Lastly, so much of this is tied up against the wall. Many people 
discuss the actual, physical structure of the wall. I speak about 
something else. This country, of all countries in the world, should 
never build a wall. This country that has a statue in New York Harbor 
saying ``Bring me your tired, your poor'' should not be building a wall 
to keep some other people out. It is just not who we are. It is not who 
we should become.
  I think that the President should realize that this is a losing 
battle, because he is not going to get the money he wants to build that 
wall.
  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from 
Alabama (Mr. Aderholt).
  Mr. ADERHOLT. Madam Speaker, I rise to oppose the fiscal year 2019 
appropriations package that is before us tonight, as I believe it fails 
to reflect the priorities of elected Members of this body here in the 
House of Representatives.
  The House agriculture appropriations bill, which I chaired as the 
Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and 
Related Agencies Subcommittee chairman, was bipartisan. I worked with 
my colleague, the Democratic ranking member, my good friend from 
Georgia, Sanford Bishop, on the bill.
  But, unfortunately, the bill in front of us tonight is basically, as 
some would say, a nothing burger. It is largely missing any substance. 
Let me give you some examples of what I am talking about.
  The House bill that we negotiated contained $125 million more than 
the Senate bill for a broadband pilot program. That is a program that 
is widely popular among rural America.
  The House bill provides $149 million more for the Food and Drug 
Administration.
  The House bill protected our children by excluding chicken from China 
in our children's school meals.
  The House bill reflected my work with Representative Clyburn of South 
Carolina to secure set-aside funds for persistent poverty, as it 
continues in rural areas.
  But tonight's package does not include these priorities. Also, they 
don't protect the border, which is one of the most basic duties of the 
Federal Government. Certainly, one of the basic duties that the 
President must make sure that he does is to protect our Nation against 
foreign enemies.
  Among the illegal immigrants who make their way across the southern 
border are gang members. There are human traffickers; there are child 
smugglers; and there are drug dealers. By stopping their entry at the 
border, it prevents them from committing crimes in the United States.
  Instead of catering to voters who don't even want to have a border, I 
believe the House Democrats should vote ``no'' on this bill, and the 
Democrat majority should negotiate an end to the government shutdown 
and simply provide the funding requested by the President of the United 
States.

[[Page H185]]

  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to vote ``no'' on this 
appropriations bill tonight, and I insist on a bill that includes the 
House priorities.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Madam Speaker, before I yield to my friend, the gentleman 
from North Carolina, I would like to address a comment that my friend, 
Mr. Aderholt, made. The bill that passed through the gentleman's 
committee also included language that would make it easier than it is 
today for youngsters to use e-cigarettes. Perhaps when we get back to 
it, we could address that.
  Madam Speaker, I yield 4 minutes to the gentleman from North Carolina 
(Mr. Price), who is the chairman-designate of the Transportation, 
Housing and Urban Development, and Related Agencies Subcommittee.
  Mr. PRICE of North Carolina. Madam Speaker, I rise in support of the 
legislation to reopen the government and end this third Trump shutdown.
  For the last 2 weeks, President Trump has held America hostage to 
fulfill his demagogic campaign promise to build a border wall, a wall 
that has come to symbolize extreme and inhumane immigration policies 
that are simply tearing our communities apart.
  This is more than just a political fight. The Trump shutdown has 
closed Federal agencies and suspended essential programs that millions 
of Americans rely upon. It has created uncertainty for families, 
businesses, and communities in each of our districts.
  To those Federal employees affected by this unnecessary shutdown, 
know this: the President and his privileged cronies may not care about 
how you and your families pay your bills, but this new Democratic 
majority certainly does care.
  As the incoming chairman of the Transportation, Housing and Urban 
Development, and Related Agencies Subcommittee, I know this uncertainty 
has severe consequences.
  Already, vital funding for States and municipalities to upgrade 
transit, rail, and aviation facilities is being put on hold.
  The National Transportation Safety Board has ceased major accident 
investigations.
  The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is no longer 
investigating or reviewing information about motor vehicle 
manufacturing defects that could put lives at risk.
  Disaster recovery programs at FEMA and other agencies have been 
slowed due to the lapse in funding. Survivors of these disasters in 
North Carolina and other States are still recovering from devastating 
hurricanes, wildfires, and typhoons, and they simply cannot afford this 
delay and this uncertainty.
  New hiring and training for air traffic controllers has ceased, 
exacerbating an ongoing staffing shortage.
  If the shutdown continues much longer, housing assistance for 
millions of low-income families, veterans, seniors, and the disabled 
will be jeopardized.
  The list, Madam Speaker, goes on and on.
  President Trump and the Republicans may have gotten us into this 
mess, but Democrats are ready to clean it up on day one, namely, right 
this minute. The funding package before us consists of appropriations 
bills that previously passed the Senate on a bipartisan basis. It 
reflects key Democratic and Republican priorities and rejects partisan 
policy riders.

  In a few minutes, separate legislation will provide short-term 
funding for the Department of Homeland Security. That will give us more 
time to negotiate and find a solution on border security and 
immigration policy.
  My colleagues on the other side of the aisle have been quoted calling 
this a stunt or a nonstarter. Madam Speaker, how is legislation that 
passed the Senate with 92 votes a stunt? How can bills the Trump 
administration itself praised in its official Statement of 
Administrative Policy just a few months ago be a nonstarter?
  Enough is enough. President Trump may see this as a reality show game 
of chicken, but this shutdown is for real, and it is doing real damage. 
Let's do the right thing for the American people. Let's reopen the 
government without further delay.
  Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this bipartisan, 
commonsense legislation to finally end the Trump shutdown.
  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from 
Alabama (Mr. Rogers).
  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I thank the ranking member for 
yielding.
  Madam Speaker, tonight, there will be a smoke-and-mirrors vote on 
this House floor. Democrats want to kick the can down the road and put 
American security on the back burner while they gear up their 
obstructionist agenda.
  It used to be that Members of Congress could put partisanship aside 
at least on national security issues. I know this firsthand as a member 
of both the Armed Services Committee and the Homeland Security 
Committee, where we have done this on a regular basis.
  But, today, the Democrats and the Speaker refuse to even negotiate 
funding a deal to deal with a critical national security issue. 
Unfortunately, it looks like we are in for a Democrat agenda influenced 
by the far left echo chamber that promotes open borders and illegal 
immigration.
  Not too long ago, then-Senator Barack Obama spoke in support of 
securing the southern border and the need to deter illegal immigration. 
The bill he supported authorized the construction of a physical barrier 
along the southern border that would prevent illegal entry into the 
United States. It passed the Senate with 80 votes that included Senator 
Barack Obama, Senator Biden, Senator Clinton, and Senator Schumer.
  What changed? Since when did securing our border become 
controversial? The election of Donald Trump.
  Democrats seem willing to ignore security vulnerabilities along our 
border on their quest to win back the White House in 2020. Their plan 
is to block President Trump's priorities, even those they used to 
support, and then act like Republicans are the reason they can't get 
things done.
  Today's funding bill stands no chance in the Senate or with President 
Trump. I challenge my Democrat colleagues to get something good done 
for the American people rather than engaging in the political 
grandstanding that this bill signifies.
  I hope Speaker Pelosi won't let the activist left hold American 
security hostage. Securing our border is not only the right thing to 
do, but it is what the American people sent us here to do.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Madam Speaker, I yield 4 minutes to the gentlewoman from 
Minnesota (Ms. McCollum), who is the chair-designate of the Interior, 
Environment, and Related Agencies Subcommittee.
  Ms. McCOLLUM. Madam Speaker, I rise in support of this bill to reopen 
the government. As the Trump shutdown ends its 13th day, we are seeing 
the damage it is inflicting on our country.
  Our national parks, America's crown jewels, are under threat from 
vandalism and unmanaged visitation. The Interior Department is charged 
with preserving our public lands for all Americans to enjoy. But the 
current lack of supervision in our parks is damaging, and the very 
resources that the government is supposed to protect are at risk.
  Just this past weekend, it was reported that Yosemite National Park 
became overwhelmed by garbage and other human waste piling up along the 
roads. Leaving these parks accessible without adequate National Park 
Service staffing puts the public at risk.
  On Christmas Eve at Big Bend National Park, a man broke his leg while 
hiking. Because of the shutdown, emergency services were not available. 
Thankfully, Good Samaritans found the man and carried him down the 
trail. Luckily, they met one of the few park rangers deemed essential 
who was continuing to work without pay during the shutdown. The ranger 
carried the man on his back for 2 hours to safety.
  Now, this story had a positive ending, but it could have been tragic. 
This is just one story.
  The shutdown is creating uncertainty for our families, businesses, 
and communities. More than 800,000 Federal employees aren't getting 
paid. Vital services are being disrupted. Some small businesses with 
government contracts are being forced to consider laying off their 
employees. The ripple effect from this shutdown is damaging our 
economy.
  Then there is the vital work of the Environmental Protection Agency. 
It

[[Page H186]]

has furloughed more than 13,000 employees, halting inspections at 
drinking water systems and hazardous waste management and chemical 
facilities. This is just unacceptable to America's public health. It 
leaves our American people in jeopardy.
  The Trump shutdown is particularly threatening to the health and 
safety of our Native American brothers and sisters. Once again, we have 
failed to meet our commitments to Tribal nations as the delay in 
government funding continues. Everyday, basic services like health 
clinics, schools, and food assistance for our seniors are being put at 
risk for nearly 1.9 million Americans throughout Indian Country.

  Federally employed first responders are putting their lives on the 
line without pay. It is unconscionable to put people's lives at risk.
  We must reopen this government. Responsibly funding the government is 
one of Congress' most important duties. The Republicans failed to meet 
this obligation, and they have allowed President Trump to peddle chaos. 
Democrats are ready to end the Trump shutdown.
  This bill is nearly identical to the legislation that has already 
received overwhelming bipartisan support in the Senate. It reflects the 
priorities of the American people by rejecting President Trump's 
proposed budget cuts and program eliminations, including the poison 
pill riders.
  The second bill we will consider today, the homeland security bill, 
will create space for negotiation on immigration policy and border 
security, something Democrats do support strongly.
  After the House passes these bills, the Senate will have a choice: 
pass the bills they previously voted for and end the shutdown, or 
reject them and leave the government closed.
  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from 
Georgia (Mr. Graves).
  Mr. GRAVES of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I thank the gentlewoman from 
Texas for yielding.
  Madam Speaker, I rise in opposition to this bill that is before us 
tonight. Unfortunately, this 116th Congress has begun under the cloud 
of a government shutdown. The prosperity and security of our Nation has 
taken a backseat to the new Democrat majority's political agenda.
  While President Trump has asked for modest and reasonable funding to 
secure our border, Democrats have blocked this deal, one that would 
have fully funded the government several weeks ago, even before 
Christmas. The President's request was normal, and it was necessary. 
But what is really not necessary is the level of the anti-Trump 
hysteria that has come from the left.
  The first order of business in this new Congress should be to secure 
the border and, yes, to open the government. The President is willing 
to strike a deal, but he just needs a few Democrats to join him at the 
table and put our country before the new Democrat majority's politics.
  Sadly, the bill on the floor today does nothing to secure our border, 
nor does it strengthen our Nation's security. The bill before us is 
nothing more than just a political stunt.
  If you still don't believe me, I will just point out this bill does 
not include any of the bipartisan product that my committee put 
together last year with the help of Congressman  Mike Quigley on the 
Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Subcommittee, 
which included more than 100 pages of bipartisan product that we worked 
on together. None of these reforms were included. It also included the 
Fund for America's Kids and Grandkids, which is a revolutionary idea to 
save money for future generations.

                              {time}  1945

  But just hours ago, in her acceptance speech, the Speaker referred to 
the children of this great country and securing their futures. So why 
doesn't this bill, the one that is before us tonight, include anything 
for America's kids and grandkids?
  Furthermore, this bill is nothing more than a Senate bill. The 
Speaker of the House is supposed to fight for the House position and 
not just be a floor leader for the Senate majority.
  I urge my friends on the other side of the aisle to put politics 
aside. Let's come to the table. Let's get this done. Working together, 
we can secure the border; we can protect the citizens of this country; 
and yes, we can reopen this government. The American people are 
counting on us. This is what they elected us to do here today.
  Madam Speaker, I urge a ``no'' vote on this bill.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Madam Speaker, before I yield to my next speaker, I just 
want to say to the gentleman from Georgia that I strongly believe we 
have a responsibility to keep the government open, so it is really 
unfortunate that the President has taken a strong position in closing 
the government down. I hope we can continue our discussions and open 
the government for the American people.
  Madam Speaker, I yield 4 minutes to the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. 
Bishop), the chairman-designate of the Agriculture, Rural Development, 
Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Subcommittee.
  Mr. BISHOP of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I thank the gentlewoman for 
yielding.
  Madam Speaker, we are now in the 13th day of a partial government 
shutdown. Vital government services that the public relies on have 
slowed or stopped altogether. Specifically, the U.S. Department of 
Agriculture has stopped issuing loans for rural development and grants 
for housing and community facilities. New grant payments for 
agriculture research cannot be made. Across the Nation, Farm Service 
Agency county offices closed on December 28. Furthermore, farmers 
applying for relief from retaliatory tariffs are in limbo, waiting for 
the shutdown to end.
  The bill before us today is a serious effort to end this needless 
shutdown and get the government back to work for the American people.
  The agriculture section is virtually identical to legislation that 
the Senate passed last August by a vote of 92-6. This impressive, 
bipartisan vote is the result of the Senate agreeing to work 
constructively to develop their bills. This bill is not perfect--no 
bill ever is--but, again, this is a serious bill that will get the 
government working again for the American people.
  Not only are we in the middle of a needless shutdown, but we are 
already 4 months into fiscal year 2019. Federal agencies and 
departments deserve certainty and stability. As we begin a new 
Congress, I hope we can renew our commitment to responsibly fund the 
government.
  This bill provides $3.8 billion for rural development. These much-
needed resources will help communities that face broadband, housing, 
water and wastewater, and healthcare challenges. The legislation 
provides an additional $425 million for rural broadband expansion, 
continuing our commitment to bridge the digital divide.
  It responsibly funds the McGovern-Dole and Food for Peace programs 
that provide essential food to help keep children in school and help 
feed hungry people abroad.
  It provides $2.7 billion in agricultural research, which is an 
increase of $114 million above the FY 2018 enacted level.
  It funds the Farm Service Agency at $1.6 million, and it funds the 
Natural Resources Conservation Service at $879.1 million.
  The bill provides $73.2 billion in mandatory funding for the 
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, which will soon begin to run 
out of funding if action is not taken soon. Last year, SNAP helped more 
than 42 million people, and it is widely considered an efficient and 
successful safety net that offers desperately needed support to those 
in need.
  Finally, the Food and Drug Administration is funded at $2.97 billion, 
and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission is funded at the requested 
level of $281.5 million.
  Farmers, ranchers, and producers go to work every morning. So should 
their government. I urge my colleagues to support this bill.
  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentlewoman from 
North Carolina (Ms. Foxx).
  Ms. FOXX of North Carolina. Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from 
Texas for yielding.
  Madam Speaker, I rise today in opposition to H.R. 21, the 
Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2019. This bill

[[Page H187]]

would allow taxpayers to fund abortions in foreign countries.
  H.R. 21 would repeal President Donald Trump's Protecting Life and 
Global Health Assistance Policy. This important policy, formally known 
as the Mexico City policy, protects American taxpayers and prohibits 
U.S. international assistance from going to foreign NGOs that promote 
or perform abortions.
  It is critical that America's foreign policy reflect the values of 
the American people. A 2017 Marist Poll clearly revealed that an 
overwhelming majority of Americans oppose using their hard-earned tax 
dollars to support abortions in other countries. American taxpayers 
should not be expected to pay for something they so strongly oppose.
  The Protecting Life and Global Health Assistance Policy is not anti-
global health nor is it anti-family planning. It does not reduce 
funding available for international health assistance and leaves the 
choice up to the individual NGOs of whether or not they wish to be 
eligible for Federal grant money.
  Abortion should never be considered a necessary part of economic 
growth, and organizations that believe it is should not be the type of 
organizations that the United States partners with.
  Abortion is wrong. We do not allow taxpayer money to be spent on 
abortions within the United States, and we certainly should not fund it 
in other countries.

  Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to oppose this bill.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Madam Speaker, I yield 4 minutes to the gentleman from 
Illinois (Mr. Quigley), the distinguished chairman-designate of the 
Financial Services and General Government Subcommittee.
  Mr. QUIGLEY. Madam Speaker, I am reminding myself, after listening to 
my colleagues, of how we really got here.
  Yes, this is a Senate bill. The Senate had a bicameral, bipartisan 
approach to this. They were told they could go home for a reason. 
Apparently, the President saw something he didn't like on TV.
  So here we are. And what do we have to show for it?
  More than 800,000 Federal employees are left wondering when their 
next paycheck is going to arrive, forced to choose between paying their 
mortgage or their child's daycare; financial markets and businesses are 
rattled by a President who is willing to throw the economy into chaos 
over his own pride; and American families are deprived of vital 
government services they rely on.
  As the chairman-designate of the Financial Services and General 
Government Subcommittee on Appropriations, I have seen firsthand how 
this shutdown is impacting communities around the country. For example, 
the doors to the Small Business Administration are shut. This means a 
complete halt to the processing of Federal loan assistance applications 
for small businesses, which typically amount to $1 billion per month.
  We have more than 300 million small businesses in our communities, 
thousands of which apply every month for Federal loan assistance, and 
we are failing them. We talk about supporting job creation and ensuring 
small businesses can grow, but when a business owner cannot get a loan 
approved, that is a broken promise.
  At the IRS, tens of thousands of employees who are supposed to be 
ready to answer taxpayers' questions and to process tax returns are, 
instead, furloughed, leaving the phones to continue ringing unanswered 
as we move into the 2018 filing season.
  The Securities and Exchange Commission, the agency responsible for 
policing Wall Street, has furloughed 94 percent of its staff. It is now 
preparing to scale back law enforcement and litigation efforts, putting 
at risk the safety and stability of our markets.
  These are just three agencies. The list goes on.
  The bill that is before us today to fund the agencies covered by the 
Financial Services and General Government Appropriations bill is not 
the bill I would have written myself. I am disappointed that, after 
securing funding last year to help States better defend their election 
systems, we were unable to lock down additional money for next year.
  The overwhelming demand for assistance is clearly there, as every 
single State and eligible territory requested funding. However, even 
though the President and many of my Republican colleagues refuse to do 
what is needed to defend our election systems from foreign 
interference, we must do what is right and what is responsible. That is 
why I am still going to support this bill. Ultimately, it will do the 
foundational job the American people expect us to do.
  This bill provides resources for our core government operations to 
resume and function properly, whether it is the Federal Communications 
Commission, the National Archives, the Federal judiciary, or Federal 
drug control offices.
  It is time--13 days past time--to end the ego trips and nonsense and 
get back to work.
  I believe we should always strive for bipartisanship when we can. 
That is exactly what the Senate did when they overwhelmingly passed the 
bills we are voting on tonight.
  While I would never ask my colleagues, whether Democrat or 
Republican, to cave on their core convictions, that is exactly what the 
President and House Republicans are asking us to do by wasting over $5 
billion on an ineffective border wall that has come to serve one 
purpose alone: to symbolize hate, exclusion, and irrational fear.
  This is clearly not how you negotiate a deal in good faith, and it is 
never appropriate to hold paychecks and vital government services 
hostage as a dealmaking tactic. Stop covering for the President as he 
doubles down on his reckless mistake. Pass these Senate-supported 
bills, and provide American families, businesses, and communities with 
the certainty they deserve.
  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from 
Maryland (Mr. Harris).
  Mr. HARRIS. Madam Speaker, I thank the gentlewoman from Texas for 
yielding.
  Madam Speaker, we are less than 8 hours into this new Congress. We 
heard a promise from the Speaker today about transparency, openness, 
and, maybe, regular order; yet we have a bill in front of us, one of 
the most major bills we would consider the entire year, that has not 
gone through the committee process. In fact, it was drawn up behind 
closed doors, with no debate. We have dozens of new Members, none of 
whom are allowed input into this product because it didn't come through 
the committee process.
  What if some of these changes are made?
  We had a bill that had come through the process, but there were 
changes made. The gentlewoman from North Carolina talked about one of 
them: the fact that many, many Americans--the majority of Americans--
feel we already spend too much on foreign aid.
  This bill says we are now going to change our policy from the last 
few years, and we are now going to spend money to fund abortion 
programs in foreign countries for the purpose of family planning--not 
for medical purposes, but for the purposes of family planning. The vast 
majority of Americans would disagree and say, with a $22 trillion debt, 
we probably shouldn't be spending money overseas funding abortions for 
family planning.
  We may have gotten a chance to debate this in committee, but we 
didn't. Less than 8 hours into the session, we have a major bill on the 
floor and no debate.

  But it goes further than that. It restores funding to the United 
Nations Population Fund. In committee, we should have had a debate 
about the United Nations Population Fund and how, in fact, it funds 
China's coercive forced sterilization and forced abortion policy.
  Is that what the United States is about: sending money overseas for 
forced sterilization and forced abortion?
  That discussion belongs in committee. It doesn't belong, again, added 
to a bill under the dark of night, with no discussion.
  It goes further. It increases funding for international family 
planning and encourages targeting areas of the world ``where population 
growth threatens biodiversity and endangered species.''
  It doesn't mention anything about human life or the value of human 
life here. It talks about every other species in the environment as if 
they are more

[[Page H188]]

important than human life, a very interesting approach to take, but an 
approach that probably should have been discussed in committee first.
  Finally, as a physician, it removes the protective language that says 
that the District of Columbia should not, in fact, promote Jack 
Kevorkian-style, physician-assisted suicide; because, Madam Speaker, if 
you can't trust your figures to make each and every judgment in your 
best interest, not the interest of an HMO that can save money or an 
insurance company that can save money or the organization that 
physician works for that can save money if that person agrees to take a 
suicide-producing drug prescribed by that physician, if we go down that 
slippery slope, I don't want to know where we end.
  Madam Speaker, this bill should have come through the committee 
process. It should have gone through debate.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Madam Speaker, before I yield to my next speaker, I would 
like to remind the gentleman from Maryland that this bill was supported 
by Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham, among other Senators; therefore, 
he might want to take up his issues with them.
  Madam Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from South Carolina 
(Mr. Clyburn), the majority whip.

                              {time}  2000

  Mr. CLYBURN. Madam Speaker, I thank the gentlewoman for yielding me 
this time and thank her so much for her service to this great Nation.
  Madam Speaker, I rise in strong support of this bill to reopen the 
government. For the past 2 weeks, vital public services have been left 
undone and honorable public servants have been left unpaid. We must end 
the shameless shutdown.
  The Democratic majority has a disagreement with the President on 
whether a wall is the best way to secure our southern border and 
whether it would be a productive step toward fixing our broken 
immigration system.
  We will continue to debate the issue, as we should, but there is 
absolutely no reason why the Federal Government should not be serving 
the American people while we debate this issue.
  There is absolutely no reason why national parks shouldn't be 
maintained. There is absolutely no reason why museums should be closed. 
There is no reason why public officer training should cease. There is 
absolutely no reason why our economy should grow by $2 billion less 
every week, as economists have estimated. There is absolutely no reason 
why homeowners and small business owners shouldn't be able to receive 
loans in a timely manner.
  The American people voted for a divided government, but they did not 
vote for a defunct government. Over the next 2 years, we must not let 
our disagreements stop us from moving forward on issues where we do 
agree.
  Madam Speaker, I have been spending a lot of time in recent weeks 
rereading a great book, ``Democracy in America,'' written by Alexis de 
Tocqueville; and although many historians disagree as to whether or not 
de Tocqueville ever really said it, the fact of the matter is, he is 
credited with having said that the reason America is a great Nation is 
because the American people are good people. And he concluded that if 
the American people ever ceased to be good, America would cease to be 
great.
  The fact of the matter is, this shutting down the government, not 
paying public servants, and not giving vital services to people and 
communities who need them is demonstrative of the fact that Americans 
are losing their goodness.
  Let's not do that. It will cause the greatness of this Nation to be 
brought into danger.
  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from 
Washington (Mr. Newhouse).
  Mr. NEWHOUSE. Madam Speaker, I thank the gentlewoman, my friend from 
Texas, for yielding.
  Madam Speaker, I rise on this first day of the 116th Congress with, 
frankly, a great deal of disappointment in my friends across the aisle. 
In the very first act of their new majority, Democrats have passed a 
set of rules to allow the debt limit to be raised automatically, to 
remove protections that prevent tax hikes on the American people, and 
to weaken the requirement that offsets be provided when Federal 
spending is increased.
  It is clear my colleagues have chosen to focus more on tax-and-spend 
priorities rather than fiscal responsibility and accountability.
  As a part of this same first act, my friends across the aisle are now 
circumventing regular order and bringing new spending legislation 
straight to the floor for a vote, with no opportunity for debate or 
ability to offer amendments.
  As someone who has served on both the Committee on Rules and the 
Committee on Appropriations, I have heard firsthand, repeatedly, my 
colleagues across the aisle shout the importance of going through 
regular order and allowing debate and amendments on these bills.
  With this move today, the very first act in their majority, the 
Democrats are cutting the Rules Committee and the Appropriations 
Committee completely out of the process.
  The legislation before us never had a hearing, was never marked up, 
never came to the Rules Committee for a vote. Most disappointingly, 
Democrats have negated the bills crafted carefully by the 
Appropriations Committee over the past year and thrown out legislative 
provisions that were negotiated and agreed upon by both sides of the 
aisle.
  Madam Speaker, I look forward to the opportunity to work to find 
common ground with my colleagues in the majority, but today I am 
sincerely disappointed in these first moves of the 116th Congress.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Madam Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentlewoman from 
Missouri (Mrs. Hartzler).
  Mrs. HARTZLER. Madam Speaker, I rise in opposition to H.R. 21, the 
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2019, for many reasons but, 
importantly, because the underlying legislation strips away essential 
protections for young mothers and unborn babies, disregarding the value 
of their lives.
  Today's minibus eliminates a crucial pro-life foreign policy that is 
in place today known as the Protecting Life in Global Health Assistance 
program. President Ronald Reagan instituted this policy to provide 
healthcare for women in foreign countries while ensuring that U.S. 
taxpayer dollars would not be used to fuel the national abortion 
industry.
  U.S. foreign assistance should be life affirming. The Protecting Life 
in Global Health Assistance policy draws a clear line between abortion 
and global healthcare.
  Foreign nongovernmental organizations should be eligible for U.S. 
Federal funding as long as they do not perform or actively promote 
abortion as a method of birth control. Protecting Life in Global Health 
Assistance affirms the inherent worth and dignity of women and children 
around the world, and it is tragic that today's bill nullifies these 
pro-life protections.
  So, because of that, I urge my colleagues to join me in voting 
against H.R. 21.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Madam Speaker, I continue to reserve the balance of my 
time.
  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from 
Colorado (Mr. Lamborn).

  Mr. LAMBORN. Madam Speaker, I thank the gentlewoman from Texas for 
her leadership.
  Madam Speaker, I rise in opposition to H.R. 21, which repeals the 
Protecting Life in Global Health Assistance policy. This is a 
commonsense policy that simply guarantees that U.S. taxpayer dollars do 
not promote or perform abortions overseas.
  Organizations such as International Planned Parenthood and Marie 
Stopes International are responsible for millions of abortions overseas 
every year, and they do not deserve support from American taxpayers.
  Taxpayer dollars are better spent on the health of children and 
mothers and on malaria and HIV prevention and treatment rather than on 
snuffing out the lives of unborn children.
  It is amazing that, on their first day of taking power, House 
Democrats are pushing an extreme position far to the left. American 
taxpayers simply don't want to fund abortions with their hard-earned 
dollars, and it is even more amazing that this exercise is being 
performed on a bill that will not be

[[Page H189]]

brought up in the Senate and will not be signed by the President. It is 
a bill that is going nowhere.
  Madam Speaker, I strongly oppose the repeal of this life-affirming 
provision, and I urge my colleagues to vote ``no'' on H.R. 21.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Madam Speaker, I just want to make something perfectly 
clear.
  The United States does not and cannot fund abortions. Let me say that 
again. The United States does not and cannot fund abortions, period.
  Madam Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from 
Louisiana (Mr. Johnson).
  Mr. JOHNSON of Louisiana. Madam Speaker, I rise to share a deep 
concern that I and many of my colleagues share about H.R. 21.
  If what our colleague said is true, then we should just take this 
provision out of the bill. To revise or rescind the Mexico City policy 
would do precisely the opposite of what the gentlewoman just said at 
the podium.
  In 1984, President Ronald Reagan made a strong international stance 
for life. He announced that the United States would carry on the 
tradition of protecting the innocent, not only at home but around the 
globe. With this promise, the United States would no longer allow 
taxpayer dollars to be sent overseas to promote abortion as a method 
for family planning. That is what this policy does.
  We are thankful for the countless lives that have been saved because 
of President Reagan's willingness to embrace the innocent, and I remain 
thankful to President Trump for carrying on this proud legacy.
  Unfortunately, Protecting Life in Global Health Assistance is now at 
risk. In the legislation before us today, the new Democratic leadership 
has moved to overturn this important policy that was just articulated.
  Let us say this clearly. The United States should never underwrite 
abortions. Taxpayers deserve better, children deserve better, and 
families deserve better. We must continue to be the shining light on 
the hill to protect the innocent and assist women and children in their 
time of need.
  What a shame it would be if the very first action in the 116th 
Congress is to send foreign aid to fund abortions overseas.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Madam Speaker, I continue to reserve the balance of my 
time.
  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from 
Indiana (Mr. Banks).
  Mr. BANKS. Madam Speaker, I too rise in strong opposition to the 
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2019, H.R. 21.
  I am appalled that the very first initiative by this Democratic 
majority is to push for taxpayer-funded subsidies to international 
organizations that promote and perform abortions.
  Madam Speaker, this bill would repeal President Trump's Protecting 
Life in Global Health Assistance policy, or the expanded Mexico City 
policy, which prohibits global health funding from going to foreign 
NGOs that perform or promote abortion.
  Madam Speaker, the expanded Mexico City policy does not change the 
amount of money available for global health and family planning 
programs. In fact, all qualified international family planning 
organizations are eligible for U.S. grant money if they agree to set 
conditions upon acceptance.
  The choice has been up to the NGO; either agree not to perform or 
promote abortions or forego funding from the United States.
  A 6-month review of the policy by the State Department found that, 
out of 733 prime partners eligible for U.S. grant money, only 4 of them 
declined to the conditions set by the expanded Mexico City policy.
  Madam Speaker, a vote in support of this minibus is a vote to abandon 
the principle that U.S. foreign assistance should be life affirming; it 
should support the health of both women and unborn children.
  Abortion is not healthcare. Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to 
vote ``no'' on this bill and uphold the Protecting Life in Global 
Health Assistance policy.
  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to vote ``no'' on 
the bill before us today, and I yield back the balance of my time.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Madam Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time.
  It is long past time to end the Trump shutdown. As our first 
legislative act of the year, we should isolate the political dispute 
over border security and reopen the government.
  There is simply no reason the Senate should not pass the package, 
given that they wrote the six full-year bills and passed a CR through 
February.
  Madam Speaker, I urge Members to vote ``yes,'' and I yield back the 
balance of my time.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. All time for debate has expired.
  Pursuant to House Resolution 5, the previous question is ordered on 
the bill.
  The question is on the engrossment and third reading of the bill.
  The bill was ordered to be engrossed and read a third time, and was 
read the third time.


                           Motion to Recommit

  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, I have a motion to recommit at the desk.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is the gentlewoman opposed to the bill?
  Ms. GRANGER. I am in its current form.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will report the motion to 
recommit.
  The Clerk read as follows:
       Ms. Granger moves to recommit the bill H.R. 21 to the 
     Committee on Appropriations with instructions to report the 
     same back to the House forthwith, with the following 
     amendment:
       Page 1021, strike line 15 and all that follows through page 
     1023, line 19 (and redesignate subsequent sections 
     accordingly).

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentlewoman from Texas is recognized for 
5 minutes.

                              {time}  2015

  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, this is the final amendment to the bill, 
which will not kill the bill or send it back to committee. If adopted, 
the bill will immediately proceed to final passage, as amended.
  This motion to recommit strikes the section of the Department of 
State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs Appropriations Act that 
reverses the President's Protecting Life and Global Health Assistance 
Policy, formerly known as the Mexico City Policy. This policy is 
important to protect life and must be maintained.
  The bill also mandates that funds be made available for UNFPA, and 
this motion to recommit strikes that requirement. The administration 
has determined that this United Nations agency has violated certain 
provisions of law. No fund should go to UNFPA. We must support this 
motion to recommit and amend the bill before us to ensure that pro-life 
policies are maintained.
  Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from New Jersey 
(Mr. Smith).
  Mr. SMITH of New Jersey. Madam Speaker, if reopening the government 
is the goal, if ending the shutdown is the goal, why does this 
appropriations package contain a brand-new poison pill rider, section 
7071, that overturns a major, comprehensive, current-day pro-life 
policy?
  Let's be clear. The Protecting Life and Global Health Assistance 
Policy is eviscerated by this bill. The Protecting Life Policy, Madam 
Speaker, is a significant reiteration and expansion of President Ronald 
Reagan's Mexico City policy, which was first announced back in 1984, 
and that policy was and is designed to ensure that U.S. taxpayer money 
is not funneled to foreign nongovernmental organizations that perform 
or promote abortion as a method of family planning.
  The policy done by Trump 2 years ago establishes pro-child safeguards 
that are benign and humane conditions. It is about protection of these 
innocent children who might otherwise die from chemical poisoning or by 
dismemberment.
  For years, pro-abortion organizations have used U.S. taxpayer funds 
to weaken, undermine, or reverse pro-life laws in other nations and 
destroy precious lives of these children.
  The Speaker earlier today admonished us to protect God's creation. 
These unborn children are God's creation. They cry out for our 
protection. U.S. foreign policy and the foreign entities that we fund 
with billions of dollars of tax money, grant money--this is

[[Page H190]]

grant money--should consistently affirm, care for, and tangibly assist 
women and children, including the unborn child.
  Let's not forget, no one is expendable or a throwaway. Every human 
life has imminent value. Birth is merely an event, not the beginning of 
the life of a child. Taxpayers should not be forced to fund the 
organizations that are promoting abortion overseas.
  This allows us--and it doesn't reduce global humanitarian aid, global 
health aid by so much as a dollar. It just is who we give it to does 
matter, and if they have an agenda of taking the lives of these 
precious children, we would give it to someone else, and we do so on a 
dollar-for-dollar basis.
  I thank my good friend for yielding, and I hope that everyone will 
support the Granger motion to recommit.
  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to vote in favor of 
this motion, and I yield back the balance of my time.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Madam Speaker, I rise in opposition to the motion to 
recommit.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentlewoman from New York is recognized 
for 5 minutes.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Madam Speaker, responsibly funding the Federal Government 
is one of the most important duties of Congress. The previous majority 
failed to do so, and they failed to do the most basic task of keeping 
the lights on. Here on day one of the 116th Congress, we Democrats are 
here to reopen Federal agencies shuttered by the Trump shutdown.
  This legislation, which has already garnered strong bipartisan 
support in the Senate, will ensure that the Federal Government is open 
and working for the American people.
  The House package includes the identical provisions relating to 
international family planning that were included in the State, Foreign 
Operations, and Related Programs bill that was reported unanimously by 
the Senate Appropriations Committee 6 months ago, including ``aye'' 
votes by Senators McConnell and Graham. The bill continues the 
longstanding prohibition on the use of U.S. funds for abortion.
  The President's executive order goes beyond existing U.S. law and 
forces the United States to withhold critical family planning 
assistance from nongovernmental organizations with expertise, capacity, 
and proven track records on supporting women's health around the globe.
  The Mexico City policy, or the global gag rule, is a harmful policy 
that hurts women and families around the world. The President's 
expanded policy prevents women from around the world from gaining 
access to essential information and healthcare services.
  We are already on the 13th day of the Trump shutdown. We need to pass 
these bills without further delay. For that reason, Madam Speaker, I 
urge my colleagues to reject this motion to recommit and vote ``no.''
  Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the previous question is 
ordered on the motion to recommit.
  There was no objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion to recommit.
  The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that 
the noes appeared to have it.
  Ms. GRANGER. Madam Speaker, on that I demand the yeas and nays.
  The yeas and nays were ordered.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 8 of rule XX, further 
proceedings on this question will be postponed.
