The border is de facto open. It is unchecked. It is unguarded.

We have to take concrete actions by sanctioning them.

Over the weekend, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania kicked off one of my favorite events: The Pennsylvania Farm Show. For more than a century, farmers have gathered each January at the Pennsylvania Farm Show in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania…

I represent many of the people who made the steel that built this country and who still make the steel this country relies on. We are seeing today, unfortunately, corporate executives, egged on by Wall Street, selling off U.S. Steel to a…

As we are all aware, we are living in a digital age, where access to high-speed, reliable internet is a necessity. It is no longer a luxury. I have heard from so many constituents in urban and rural communities about the detrimental effect…

So in the 5 minutes we have remaining, now, Mr. Crane is new here, so maybe he is excited to vote to continue that. I don't think he is, but that is between him and his constituents. Mr. Good was here not this last Christmas last month but…

I rise before you today to recognize a special day for our dairy farmers, National Milk Day. National Milk Day originates back to January 11, 1878, when milk was first delivered in glass bottles in the United States. Milk is consumed by…

In the 4 minutes we have left, I am standing with great American patriots here that have decided to serve in Congress, do the right thing no matter what Washington, D.C., tells them. It seems to me--I don't know, maybe I am cynical, maybe…

In Washington, every time that you think you have seen it all and heard it all, you couldn't be surprised, amazed, disappointed, what have you, more than you already are, but it never fails to deliver. I am going to talk about a few things…

It certainly is an astounding eventuality that we are realizing, and we also know that the Border Patrol wants to do its job. I firmly believe that 99.9 percent of the good members of Customs and Border Protection want to do their job…

It is the new year. Congress is back in session; students are back in school; and parents are preparing for the year ahead. For many families, that means figuring out childcare. I remember when I was a young mother running a small law firm…

That is right. In the remaining 1\1/2\ minutes, I will kind of end this where I started it out for all of us. We have got friends on the other side of the aisle here in this building, friends in the other party around the country in charge…

I want to tell a story about getting on the plane in San Antone to come home. Before I do that, we are joined by the great Eli Crane from the State of Arizona, out of that uniform and into this uniform, fighting for the great people of…

Well, Mr. Biggs of Texas, I am glad you brought that up. Now, on my trip home, I went to the airport in San Antonio. It was early in the morning. People are around, but, you know, we know what to look for because we have heard the stories…

I thank the gentleman for yielding. President Biden's attempt to block the sale of gas-powered vehicles and mandate electric vehicles in the next decade would have disastrous consequences for American families, American businesses, and the…

People don't know that, Mr. Biggs from Arizona, but there is a golf course right on the river at Eagle Pass, Texas. While people are coming illegally across the border, you could be teeing off or on the green trying to get one in the cup…

Well, I was around when that agency was enacted, and there was a reason we called it that. It was supposed to help all the disparate agencies collaborate toward one singular focus, which was protecting America.

You are telling me I have got an app on my phone where I can make a reservation to come illegally into the country, and I am making the reservation with the law enforcement agency charged with keeping me out of the country illegally?
