I have long believed the most important work in schools happens at the State and local level.

I believe that Mr. Robinson needs to make a call fairly quickly, defend his name or -- in the absence of a defense, then we've got to move on.

Look, Robinson exists because Donald Trump has lifted him up throughout.

No, this has been who he's been. And frankly, I'm not surprised by the recent revelations.

If Mark Robinson wins this race, it will be the biggest upset in my lifetime.

If the reporting on Mark Robinson is a total media fabrication, he needs to take immediate legal action. If the reporting is true, he owes it to President Trump and every Republican to take accountability for his actions and put the future…

I think you're going to see a backlash of basic decency.

Donald Trump and North Carolina GOP leaders embraced Mark Robinson for years, knowing who he was and what he stood for including disrespect for women and inciting violence. They reap what they sow.

Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman and members. Thanks for hosting this member day and giving members the opportunity to speak before the committee.

Well, we have seen throughout the time of the Biden-Harris administration that it overstepped its bounds all of the time.

The current sub-minimum wage with tipped employees perpetuates low pay, enables, inexcusable levels of wage theft, and it leads to higher poverty rates.

It is abundantly clear that there are two agendas present today. The republican's agenda will weaken worker protections and let low road employers off the hook for breaking the law.

Tipped workers are unfortunately paid less per hour than non-tipped workers, and they have less access to benefits.

In one of the richest countries in the world, no one working full-time should be living in poverty.

The Trump Department of Labor pushed to allow low road employers to steal tipped workers hard earned pay.

The Trump administration's attempt to gut protections for tipped workers have only worsened these issues by allowing employers to steal almost 6 billion dollars of worker's hard-earned tips for themselves each year.
