I was unable to be present for a recorded vote on S. 2163, the Commission on the Social Status of Black Men and Boys Act. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea'' on rollcall No. 167. MEMBERS RECORDED PURSUANT TO HOUSE RESOLUTION…

On the last day of the Obama- Biden administration, Fish and Wildlife issued a ``Director's Order'' setting in place an almost total ban on lead ammunition and tackle on Federal lands. While Fish and Wildlife claimed that the rule was…

I have an amendment at the desk. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 507, line 19, after the first dollar amount, insert ``(reduced by $564,452,000)''. The SPEAKER…

Waters of the U.S., social cost of carbon, the Clean Power Plan rules, these are just a few of the crushing regulations issued by the Obama-Biden Presidency. During the Obama-Biden administration, the EPA issued nearly 4,000 regulations…

More money is not always the answer. The right policies, efficiency, is the answer. As I said earlier, for the first time in 50 years, under Trump's policies and Trump's spending, we have the cleanest air since 1970. I am not sure why the…

Once again, I rise to advocate in favor of the fiscal sanity of the Trump administration. Just like my last amendment, this amendment prevents the Democrats from taking us back to the Obama-Biden era policies of overregulation and…

Today, we are seeing rivals like China and Russia exploit instability and crisis to undermine democratic values and respect for human rights.

This amendment is an attempt by the Democrats to rewrite private contracts and put private lenders out of business, accomplishing their goal of socializing all student loan debt. This amendment authorizes between $45 and $50 billion of…

I claim time in opposition. I am opposed to the amendment. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Missouri is recognized for 5 minutes.

In closing, I would just remind my colleagues of the real purpose of this amendment. It is just to socialize the entire student loan industry. Rather than working to address the underlying causes of the student loan crisis, my colleagues…

It would be my assessment that some or all of these bills presented for this hearing would be costly to companies.

We have authorized some $660 billion in forgivable loans under the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), which has supported more than 51 million American jobs.

I want to welcome our witnesses and thank them for testifying about the obstacles that women- and minority-owned businesses face when it comes to accessing capital and financial services.
