I do appreciate what you are trying to do to go back through the entire process and see where the mistakes were made, and then figure out how do you build back a better structure.

There are common sense policies we can pass that will change things.

We keep on doing this, over and over again. I mean, it`s avoidable. We can change this. We know that we can change this.

But we know they are wrong.

I am here today to spend a few minutes on an issue that is profoundly important to Colorado and, I would say, to the Presiding Officer's State, as well, without being presumptuous, New Mexico, our neighbor to the south. In March, the Biden…

if, in fact, my colleagues on the other side of the aisle who believe that a Federal abortion ban should be enacted at the Federal level ultimately gain power of the Federal government, then that, of course, would be potentially a ban…

That freedom is really at the core issue of what we are discussing today.

I feel as though the Presiding Officer has the misfortune of being the Presiding Officer every time I come out here to speak. So I apologize for that, but I thank you for your patience and for your indulgence. Madam President, when I was…

I thank you, Chair Cicilline, for your continued leadership with respect to making sure that we can right-size our economy, free market economy, well-regulated, but one that works for everyday Americans, not against them.

I thank the chairman for his historical recollection, which is 100 percent correct. I just want to make it clear, again, how extraordinary the process was. You know, when people--I think people in this country are entitled to believe that…

My solution is that the Federal government stop spending so much darn money.

The buck stops at President Biden and his Administration, who has had missteps from day one.
