Our Republican majority this year passed H.R. 5, the Parents Bill of Rights, that protects students, and ensures parents of their rights to know what books are in school libraries.

I would like to thank Congressman Dave Joyce and Congresswoman Debbie Dingell for introducing the WILD Act.

I am proud to join Representative Joyce in introducing the Wildlife Innovation and Longevity Driver Reauthorization Act, or WILD Act.

Protecting wildlife has always been a top priority. Many of you know that I am very concerned about America's shrinking wildlife populations.

Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib incited the illegal uprising by riling up the rioters during her speech that day.

I really do want to work with my Republican colleagues because I think this is something we really can agree on.

It is a fact that bears repeating, we will not be prepared to face the next pandemic if we don't start doing the work now to fortify our biodefense with meaningful biosafety and biosecurity reforms.

Without immediate action, Government funding will run out on Saturday at 11:59 p.m.
