Again, Mr. Chairman, I thank my colleague. Obviously, I ask that this amendment be adopted and ultimately that the CFPB be dismantled. Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment…

The last thing I heard is that we have a couple people who haven't paid taxes. Hunter Biden is one, and more than likely so is President Biden. The IRS should not be the agency that goes after criminals. That is an agency called the FBI…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. The salary of Gary Gensler…

I demand a recorded vote. The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentlewoman from Tennessee will be postponed. Amendment No. 16 Offered by Mr. Davidson The Acting CHAIR. It…

This amendment is very simple. It deals with a man named Gary Gensler, who is the head of the Securities and Exchange Commission. He has been implementing woke policies and abusing the rulemaking process. One of the Security and Exchange…

I thank my friend and mentor, the gentleman from Arkansas, for his friendship. When I first got here, he was probably one of the most influential people in my life on this floor, so I thank him for that, and I thank him for his support of…

My amendment prohibits funds to finalize the Federal Labor Relations Authority's proposed rule which would restrict Federal employees' ability to opt out of membership in a labor union. I am not against the union, per se, but the right for…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. No funds made available by…

The CFPB is essentially orchestrating a name-and-shame scheme with this registry, and it is openly weaponizing the power of the Federal Government to target market participants. It could be weaponized, and it could be leveraged. So if they…

My amendment prohibits funds to finalize, implement, administer, or enforce the CFPB's rule entitled ``Registry of Nonbank Covered Persons Subject to Certain Agency and Court Orders.'' Mr. Chairman, there is a recurring theme here. That is…

Again, I want to point out in its Janus decision, the Supreme Court affirmed that employees have a First Amendment right to opt out. The decision didn't say that the employee has a First Amendment right 1 month out of the year. It said…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds made…

I would argue that it is time that Congress empowers any President to be able to staff their office, and if they have a member of their administration who is undermining their policies that they are able to--and it is not that we are…

I thank my colleague for his comments. We have civil service protections to protect career Federal employees from being fired or demoted just because the President or their supervisor disagrees with them politically. We must allow an…

Our Republic depends on our bureaucracies faithfully implementing the laws and policies set forth by our elected officials. A misguided rule proposed by the Office of Personnel Management could threaten a President's ability to ensure that…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds made…

I thank my colleague for his comments, and I respect his opinion. Mr. Chair, I would urge adoption, and I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Tennessee (Mr…

I respect and appreciate my colleague's comments. I would point out that the CFPB, which I would argue, is an unconstitutional bogeyman for so many small American businesses. They want to force lenders to report data from women-owned…
