1. conference

   Company, from the Latin cum, with, and panis, bread, denotes primarily the association of those who eat at a common table, or the persons so associated, table-companions, messmates, friends, and hence is widely extended to include any association of those united permanently or temporarily, for business, pleasure, festivity, travel, etc., or by sorrow, misfortune, or wrong; company may denote an indefinite number (ordinarily more than two), but less than a multitude; in the military sense a company is a limited and definite number of men; company implies more unity of feeling and purpose than crowd, and is a less formal and more familiar word than assemblage or assembly. An assemblage may be of persons or of objects; an assembly is always of persons. An assemblage is promiscuous and unorganized; an assembly is organized and united in some common purpose. A conclave is a secret assembly. A convocation is an assembly called by authority for a special purpose; the term convention suggests less dependence upon any superior authority or summons. A group is small in number and distinct in outline, clearly marked off from all else in space or time. Collection, crowd, gathering, group, and multitude have the unorganized and promiscuous character of the assemblage; the other terms come under the general idea of assembly. Congregation is now almost exclusively religious; meeting is often so used, but is less restricted, as we may speak of a meeting of armed men. Gathering refers to a coming together, commonly of numbers, from far and near; as, the gathering of the Scottish clans.

1. Mike Lawler:

   So I think the time for this effort needs to come to an end and everybody in the conference needs to get on board so that we can get about the work we were elected to do, which is stopping the Joe Biden and Democratic Speaker Nancy Pelosi agenda, advancing our agenda, providing oversight, and getting about restoring balance and common sense in government for the American people.

2. Jang Il Hun:

   We also demanded that in case the conference is enforced as scheduled then we had to participate ... as a party directly concerned, i sent a formal request to my counterpart in the State Department and he responded that it's not a U.S. government event. So it means our request was denied.

3. Kevin McCarthy:

   He didn't see it before it posted. It was not his intent to show any harm, what I said to conference was,( we) can not accept any action or showing of a violence to another member.

4. Matt Rosendale:

   For months it’s been clear that Cheney is unfit for any leadership role in the Republican Party. Conservatives tried to fix the problem in February, but weren't listened to, even so, I’m glad we’ve recognized this reality as a Conference. Turning the page on her disastrous tenure will allow House Republicans to focus our messaging on fighting the Pelosi/Biden agenda.

5. Sharon Holland:

   I can't imagine this announcement would be made in a public press conference if there was going to be something that was going to awaken and evoke the rawness of all of this once again, i don't think we would be hearing it spoken in that venue if that were the case.
