it is immoral in my mind to rack up this kind of debt and to stack it and shift it as a deferred tax on our children

We can't have China, Communist China, have a lower tax rate on their businesses, their job creators, than we do in the United States.

As a member of this committee, I am grateful for the opportunity to discuss two of the most pressing issues facing Veterans and the committee today.

Climate change presents a direct threat to our nation's capital markets, critical infrastructure, and economic growth.

I look forward to continuing our work and Committee to advance effective accreditation reform that protects our veterans and their rights.

I go from thumping to gaveling.

If we implement President Biden's tax rates that he proposes in his budget, number one, it is almost $5 trillion dollars in new taxes.

Those who risk their lives in defense of our country deserve positive and fulfilling lives, and the Federal Government has the responsibility to assist them in their endeavor.

I would like to thank you for sharing your love for America, for our country.

This bipartisan bill will reimplement penalties for unaccredited agents... and protect the right for veterans to seek help.

I think when President Kennedy talked about cutting tax rates, maybe we were close to it then, but really, we are not there now.

Do we want to be the highest taxed business, job creators in the world or do we want to be the most competitive?

I associate myself with the remarks of my colleague on trade, and I look forward to opening up new markets, new customers for American producers and manufacturers.

Congratulations. The fact that VA is performing well above the average on metrics regarding patient-doctor communication and care transition is really a testament to your hard work.

I am willing to work with you guys to make sure that people are doing the right thing, basically.

I think it is spot-on. I mean, if you take a look at the growth in money that we are putting out for community care, it is exponential, predicted to be $2 billion a year for the next three or four years, additional to the 23.5 we are at right now.

Just a quick follow-up, I think Senator Blackburn is going to be coming in, in a second.
