I would strongly support, Madam Chair, any future hearings on this.

I will tell you that that omnibus bill, the increased spending, led to increased inflation, which Americans are tired of.

The cuts that were proposed would have significant impact on schools across the country, the 50 million students in elementary, middle, and high school.

Right. And that would reduce the tightness of the labor market and reduce pressures on inflation, right?

I would hope that every member of this committee would read Governor Cox of Utah's veto message on the issue.

When the cost of failure far exceeds the price of progress.

I will yield 3 minutes to the chair--to the ranking member, if that is possible?

We passed a very significant piece of legislation, the infrastructure bill, which includes $65,000,000,000 for rural broadband.

So that you can actually do things if you balance the budget, you can actually accomplish a lot of these things.

Shame on us if we have a program that $3,600,000,000 funding, and only one-third of the people are actually getting skills training.

I would suggest that we should consider having the States pay their 'fair share' of the expansion.

You all realize you have to balance the budget because you can't print money, but somehow the President believes we don't have to balance the Federal budget.

And that bill to which you referred also made a substantial contribution to local police departments, funding local police departments so they could maintain safety, which we have seen so dramatically, unfortunately and tragically, over…

the notion that somehow the Federal Government doesn't play a key role in both primary and secondary and higher education is wrong and will lead to the deterioration of our country's competitiveness worldwide if that is pursued.

I am really looking forward to working together to help America's small businesses.

the chief executive of our country responded in an irresponsible, reckless, and dismissive fashion in February and in March

I am committed to making sure that we work together on requests for information.

Nobody should ever contemplate willfully forcing the Treasury to default in this fashion. Anyone who does is unfit for any public office in the United States.
