Here’s my statement in support of Sandy flood insurance relief.
http://bit.ly/WiqYxB- As someone who has been on the ground, viewed the devastation, and helped clean up some of the damage, I certainly believe that those who have bought flood insurance should expect to receive the coverage they paid for. Today, the House took steps to ensure that the federal government fulfills its contractual obligation to all those who have purchased national flood insurance. A temporary increase in NFIP’s borrowing limit is required.

Tune in to CSPAN now. I'm leading the Floor debate on Flood Aid for Sandy Relief.- I just took the Oath of Office and was sworn in to serve another term in the United States House of Representatives. Thank you to all of those in New Jersey's Fifth Congressional District for giving me this opportunity. I am most grateful and will do my best to represent you to the best of my ability in the 113th Congress.

Douglas Criscitello and Owen Barwell offer their take on government's role in private lending in today's Wall Street Journal. They write, "A recent case in point involves the risky loans made in the past decade by the Federal Housing Administration—and which are now showing higher than expected default rates. As a result, the FHA may need billions in government bailout funds."

How much of the national debt do you owe? How much will you pass to your children? Check out this report from Bret Baier that shows some startling numbers and real dollar amounts.

American History: On this day, 235 years ago, General Washington & his army entered Valley Forge, where an unusually harsh winter would be a great trial for the Continental Army. The suffering troops, held together by loyalty to the cause and loyalty to General Washington, emerged from the challenge stronger. A mere nine days later, these troops defeated the British at the Battle of Monmouth.

Today is a great day in New Jersey's colonial history, "On this day in 1787, New Jersey became the third state to ratify the new U.S. Constitution and thereby join the Union, following Delaware and Pennsylvania. New Jersey had played a majo...r role in crafting the structure of the U.S. government after it became widely evident that the original Articles of Confederation were ill-suited to govern a unified nation."

If nothing is done, the alternative minimum tax (AMT) will hammer many unsuspecting New Jersey families with a costly tax bill at the start of 2013. I wrote an op-ed that appeared in Roll Call about why Congress needs to fix the AMT immediately.
