I can understand an Office of Legal Counsel not wanting that weight on his shoulders, whoever he is...

Vaccines are safe and effective.

I look forward to hearing from our witnesses today on whether the policies that were instituted in 2009 are still applicable today.

Vaccines are incredibly valuable tools to protect and improve the health of all of our neighbors.

I mean, who could possibly think the National Science Foundation gave you 150,000 bucks to spend on liquor, parties and lobbyists.

I think it is appalling to many of us that so many employees at the agencies obviously look at the federal budget and taxpayers' money as some kind of big pinata.

I mean, just shocked by the answer, so----

I think you have ripped off the National Science Foundation and I think the honorable thing to do would be to say hey, we are going to give you your money back.

I was particularly taken by your statement, which I agree with, that the primary purpose of our immigration laws is to protect the jobs and wages of American workers.

Isn't that exactly what DHS has been doing, suspending the deportation process and creating an enforcement-free zone for millions of unlawful and criminal aliens?

I think that Congress needs to debate is whether the policies of this Administration encourage further illegal immigration into the United States or not.

the facts tell a different story.

Selective enforcement of the law is destructive to our system. Ignoring laws simply because we wish they weren't laws is destructive to the system.

We will not only provide the Administration with the tools it needs, we will also act to ensure that the President cannot unilaterally shut down immigration enforcement in this country.

If you believe in market theory, wages should be going up. They are not. It has something to do with immigration.

The oath we took as Members of the Congress was not, as much as we love it, to defend Arizona or California or Virginia; it was to defend the Constitution of the United States.

We have to be able to figure this out. These people have to be held accountable.

The law is crystal clear.
