Mr. WALDEN (during the reading). Madam Speaker, I ask unanimous
consent that the Clerk dispense with the reading.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the
gentleman from Oregon?
There was no objection.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the rule, the gentleman from
Oregon is recognized for 5 minutes in support of his motion.
Mr. WALDEN. Madam Speaker, Congress has already passed and President
Trump has already signed into law a ban on tobacco product sales,
including vaping product sales to children under the age of 21. We did
that. It is now law. Those are banned.
The Food and Drug Administration is aggressively going after
companies that still try to target kids and has the authority to stop
them--and will.
But we all care deeply about the health of our children. Taking care
to protect the health and welfare of children is a common cause.
We know that the younger the child, the more vulnerable and
defenseless they are, the more these children need our help. That is
why we are offering a final amendment to the bill that literally would
save the lives of the youngest children, the babies.
I would hope we could agree to end the ghastly practice of letting
children die without medical help when they are born alive after an
abortion. Providing, literally, lifesaving medical care to these babies
is something on which we should all find common ground and support.
It is the right thing to do. It is the right thing to do for the
children. These are not fetuses that are born. These are tiny little
babies that are struggling to live.
Madam Speaker, I yield to the gentlewoman from Missouri (Mrs.
Wagner), author of the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, a
mother and a grandmother herself, who always puts the lives of children
first.
Mrs. WAGNER. Madam Speaker, I thank the gentleman for yielding.
Madam Speaker, I rise today in support of this motion to recommit to
protect newborn babies who survive abortions.
Congress has an opportunity to ensure that no baby is denied
lifesaving care simply because he or she is allegedly unwanted. We can
and we must act.
But Democratic leadership has refused to put my lifesaving
legislation, the Born-Alive Survivors Protection Act, on the floor 80
times this Congress. I am grateful that the U.S. Senate voted on the
born-alive bill this week and the House must follow suit.
Our constituents must know where we stand. Over 70 percent of
Americans who identify as Democrats support this legislation, but their
Representatives ignore their voices.
We have learned from medical professionals, including former abortion
providers, just how essential born-alive protections are. It breaks my
heart to find that we must defend lifesaving care for newborn babies.
This is an incredibly urgent moment for our Nation, Madam Speaker.
Over the course of the past year, radical legislators from New York to
Illinois to Virginia have moved to strip protections for babies who
survive abortions.
I am appalled and saddened that there are prominent American
politicians who want to deny babies lifesaving medical care.
Thankfully, a similar born-alive bill in Missouri recently advanced
just last week, a sign there is broad support for this measure.
Denying lifesaving medical care to America's infants is a violation
of our Constitution and an egregious offense against basic human
dignity.
Supporting this motion to recommit--which, I will say, the National
Right to Life, Susan B. Anthony List, March for Life, Family Research
Council, and Concerned Women for America, all are key voting--is the
simplest choice any Member of Congress can make.
Do you support babies receiving lifesaving care after they are born,
or would you deny these innocent children that care and allow them to
be discarded and left to die?
The tragedy of infanticide across our country requires serious and
effective legal safeguards, and I thank those who fight on behalf of
the most vulnerable who cannot protect themselves.
I implore my colleagues to support this motion to recommit and ensure
that no baby is denied lifesaving care.
Mr. WALDEN. Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
Ms. BASS. Madam Speaker, I rise in opposition to the motion to
recommit.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentlewoman from California is
recognized for 5 minutes.
Ms. BASS. Madam Speaker, I am here to rise in support of the
Protecting American Lungs and Reversing the Youth Tobacco Epidemic Act
and to speak in opposition to the motion to recommit.
[[Page H1288]]
I am concerned that some of my colleagues on the other side of the
aisle are confused about what the discussion is about today, so I rise
in opposition.
The real issue here is about a dying industry that is in need of a
new market, a new generation of smokers, because the national movement
that fought to protect the health of the public from the adverse
consequences of tobacco has successfully reduced smoking and driven the
industry overseas to sell its product.
In 1988, California was one of the first States that voted to raise
taxes on cigarettes and dedicated some of the revenue to creating
statewide antismoking programs and campaigns to help people break
addiction to tobacco.
Public health researchers correctly identified the correlation
between the marketing practices of the industry, accessibility of
product, and levels of addiction.
Some of you might remember Joe Camel, a cartoon character that made
smoking look fun and innocent. Why would an industry whose product was
only for adult use use a cartoon character to market its product? After
lawsuits, the industry agreed to stop using cartoon imagery.
Before Joe Camel, depending on how old you are, you might remember
candy cigarettes. When I was a child, I could buy candy in a package
that looked like cigarettes with 20 pieces of candy shaped exactly like
a cigarette that we pretended to puff.
California continued to raise taxes on tobacco and passed numerous
ordinances to prohibit smoking. You can't smoke in government
buildings. You can't smoke even directly outside of government
buildings. You can't smoke in restaurants, in parks, or on the beach.
You can't even smoke in bars.
Each time when taxes were raised or smoking was prohibited, the
industry paid millions of dollars to frighten people. Businesses were
going to close; businesses were going to leave California, and we would
face a recession.
But what happened? People stopped smoking. Smoking rates in
California declined by 55 percent. States and communities around the
Nation joined the effort to protect the public's health by taxing
cigarettes and reducing where people could smoke.
When smoking rates began to decline in specific populations--more
affluent, more middle-class populations--the industry intensified
marketing strategies and campaigns in low-income communities of color.
In the 1990s, I ran a community-based program that was funded by tax
dollars from cigarette sales. We fought to remove billboards and other
advertisements near schools and recreation centers because we
understood the industry was losing customers and they needed new
smokers. The industry offered to sponsor community events, supported
community organizations, even handed out free cigarettes, all in order
to generate goodwill and to undermine the community organizing efforts
aimed at reducing the negative health consequences.
Now, there is an entire generation that never experienced a smoking
section on an airplane or in a restaurant or, for that matter, ever sat
in a committee hearing while Members smoked. The very idea of this
seems outrageous today, but like other examples of great change in
society, the change in social norms regarding smoking took an organized
movement. The legislation we are voting on today is in response to that
movement's success.
The industry is greatly diminished and is in search of new markets.
The industry is just working on getting a new generation prepared to be
addicted to their product, and they found a path in modernistic e-
cigarettes and tantalizing flavors like circus and twisted berry.
Young people are being led to believe that smoking e-cigarettes is a
safer way to smoke, just like smokers in the 1980s were led to believe
that smoking light cigarettes were safer--Marlboro Lights were safer
than regular Marlboros.
After years of a decline in smoking, with heavy marketing the last 3
years, high school e-cigarette usage increased 135 percent, and 7 out
of 10 youth e-cigarette smokers say they use them because ``they come
in flavors I like.'' In fact, e-cigarettes are available in thousands
of different flavors.
Cigars are right behind e-cigarettes as the second most popular
tobacco product among high school students.
E-cigarettes come in 250 different flavors, including banana smash,
strawberry kiwi, and watermelon. There is just no reason that an
industry that claims to be for adults would market flavors like bubble
gum and cotton candy. The marketing of cigarette flavors is the 2020
version of candy cigarettes and Joe Camel. There is nothing new about
this strategy. We cannot and should not be ignorant to history.
While Republicans might use this MTR, for some strange reason, to
drive a wedge between our Caucus, we are trying to save lives by
passing this bill. I ask my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to
oppose this senseless motion to recommit.
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.
Mr. WALDEN. Madam Speaker, on that I demand the yeas and nays.
The yeas and nays were ordered.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 9 of rule XX, this 5-
minute vote on the motion to recommit will be followed by 5-minute
votes on:
Passage of the bill, if ordered; and
Agreeing to the Speaker's approval of the Journal, if ordered.
The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 187,
nays 220, not voting 22, as follows:
