I am very grateful to support the National Defense Authorization Act. I appreciate so much the leadership of Chairman Mike Rogers and Ranking Member Adam Smith for their diligent work for providing this crucial National Defense…

I am grateful to recognize 2024 Army Congressional Fellow, Major ``JJ'' Joshua Jackson, for his service to the country and the Second District of South Carolina. Throughout his congressional tenure, JJ has been a valued team member working…

Just a point. The payback periods for many of these appliances are uneconomical. Republicans look long term. Republicans look toward quality and value for Americans. For example, the payback period for the Department of Energy's proposed…

I remind Americans that this mandate by the Biden administration on washing machines will only save them about $9 total over the lifespan of the unit itself, which is about 13\1/2\ years, a savings of only $9 over 13\1/2\ years…

The military protects the freedom of all American families, and we must provide adequate support to retain our ability to have peace through strength. Tomorrow, the House will consider the Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and…

I do not think any American believed that that reduced inflation, and that money needs to go back to addressing our debt and our deficit and we cannot spend recklessly.

Yesterday, on Truth Social, President-elect Donald Trump correctly identified that: ``Assad is gone''. . . . ``His protector, Russia, Russia, Russia, led by Vladimir Putin . . . because of Ukraine, where close to 600,000 Russian soldiers…

This is reckless, and we need to be competitive in the global economy, and we cannot do that if we spend money we do not have.

I am one of millions of Americans that had planned to purchase a house that cannot because my 2 1/2 percent mortgage is looking up at a 7 percent interest rate.

Unfortunately, there are over 500 schools in the United States that are subverted with Chinese Communist Party propaganda. The endorsement of communism in American classrooms has led to a disgusting 28 percent of young adults who have a…

Before I got into the political arena, I was in the family construction and development business. It was seldom that I ever heard of or witnessed a company that stayed in business for 20, 50, or 70 years, and especially not 100 years. Mr…

Are there political implications for congressional apportionment and the electoral college when you are counting criminal illegal aliens in the U.S. Census?

The Census Bureau is charged with a constitutional mandate that impacts every single American: ensuring fair representation in Congress.

The 2020 Census miscounting errors had far-reaching consequences: distorting congressional representation, reallocating electoral votes, and misdirecting over $1.5 trillion over 10 years in Federal funding.

So, when you are doing the Census with folks and asking the question, you are not asking if they are a citizen.

You are not being honest this morning, and I think it is a slap in the face to the American people.

Are criminal illegal aliens, the people that break the law coming into our country when they enter in the door illegally, are they counted in the U.S. Census? Yes or no?

As we look toward the 2030 Census, I am increasingly concerned about the impact of the policies from this Administration on its accuracy and fairness.
