Inflation is at the highest level since 1981.

More than a half century ago, Americans walked on the Moon for the first time. Now, a new lunar mission is upon us in 2024, and the Third District of Arkansas will support this next step in space exploration. NASA has chosen Canoo, a…

It is embarrassing that we, the adults in the room here on the Appropriations Committee, cannot get out of our own way.

My thanks to my colleague from Texas for giving me the opportunity to speak on this very important subject. Madam Speaker, I rise in support of this resolution, though I have to admit that it is easy to be somewhat pessimistic about its…

I rise this afternoon in steadfast support of this supplemental and of Israel. In the same week President Biden pledged to stand with our allies, his Democrat counterparts removed critical defense resources for our longstanding ally and…

I offer this motion to recommit for one simple reason: so our defenders, the National Guard and the Capitol Police, can have the funding they need to continue protecting Americans day in and day out. This motion does what Congress has been…

I am pleased to yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from San Angelo, Texas (Mr. Pfluger), a very distinguished member of the freshman class of this Congress, a member of the Foreign Affairs and Homeland Security Committees. I am proud of his…

I am pleased to yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Tipton, Michigan, Michigan's Seventh District (Mr. Walberg), a valued and respected member of the Education and Labor and Energy and Commerce Committees.

I won't belabor the point that I made a few minutes ago that I am not a big fan of this process, but there does come a time in the process where we come to some agreement on things, and I guess we are at that stage of the game. Madam…

As a testament to the gentleman's amendment, I am a proud cosponsor of that particular amendment and I am pleased that he has offered such. Madam Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time. Ms. DeLAURO. Madam Speaker, I misspoke earlier…

And rise in opposition for a number of reasons, some of which we will detail in a more articulate way here as the debate continues. But suffice it to say that we have thrown a lot of money at the economy of the United States of America…

I am prepared to close, and I reserve the balance of my time. Ms. DeLAURO. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Rhode Island (Mr. Cicilline).

I am pleased to yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Allen), my friend who serves on the Agriculture and Education and Labor Committees, from a city unlike any other, Augusta, Georgia.

It is a great pleasure to yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Pence) from Columbus, Indiana, and a respected member of the Energy and Commerce Committee.

I am pleased to yield 1 minute to the gentlewoman from Colorado (Mrs. Boebert), a freshman from Silt, Colorado.

My thanks to the ranking member for the time. Madam Speaker, I rise in opposition to this package of appropriations bills. As the ranking member of the Appropriations Financial Services and General Government Subcommittee, I have great…

It is with a heavy heart that I rise today. Arkansas lost one of its finest over the weekend. Pea Ridge Police Officer Kevin Apple was tragically killed in the line of duty while working to apprehend two suspects. When he approached the…

There is no question what the backbone of our economy happens to be--all these millions and millions of small businesses out there.

Before I get to my prepared remarks, let me just respond to my friend from Ohio. When he speaks, he makes it sound like that what went on here yesterday on the vote on the 1/6 commission was not bipartisan. Let me remind the gentleman that…

I thank the gentleman for hosting this very important series regarding law enforcement. Mr. Speaker, I, too, rise today to honor the men and women in blue. They have devoted their lives to keeping our communities and families…

Last question in this round is about long-range fires.

I would like to get a commitment from you to release the service academy board of visitors review as soon as possible.

Thank you for coming to West Point. Really enjoyed your speech to the cadets.
