These bills are important steps forward in improving our Nation's clean energy research.

This speech is not about who`s in the chamber. This speech is a speech to the American public.

What is happening with President Biden's hold is that he is specifically thwarting the appropriation. He wants to defy the law in implementing that program.

It also could not be more necessary given the actions of President Biden when it comes to the crisis on our southern border.

I believe that it is the responsibility of GAO to make this decision very quickly.

I think it's pretty straightforward that this Administration is violating the law.

The President's decision to withhold funding on the border wall, along with other actions his Administration has taken, have only fueled a national security and humanitarian crisis at the southern border.

We are all ready to stand in a committee room with a mask or without a mask in an in-person hearing.

The ability to start anew, pull yourself up by your bootstraps, and own a small business are all key aspects of the American dream that many immigrants are seeking in the United States.

President Biden has pledged to repeal the Trump administration's pro-business Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

So if those taxes are raised and you wind up with increased regulation, it is going to suck money out of your operating capital.

I'm very supportive of research and development

To the extent that we make it easier, or we create pull factors, which I think, personally, is the greatest attraction right now...

No matter how you slice it, higher taxes are a burden for small businesses, both the owners and their employees.

I am concerned the numbers will bear out, you made the point about community banks.

The continuance of stringent COVID-19 mandates is burdensome to small business owners and their employees and their customers.

A mandatory higher minimum wage and excessive, unnecessary regulations are a burden for small businesses, small business owners, and their customers.

I look forward to working with Members of the Committee and stakeholders as we prepare to reintroduce this legislation.
