I remember when Michelle came in, we shared someone that helped us with our campaign, and she said you need to meet Michelle. I met her, and I thought she was great, and I have ever since. Mr. Speaker, I yield to my friend and colleague…

This is kind of overwhelming, but I will yield next to one of my friends and one of the ladies that sits next to me in our women's row over here, my friend and colleague from Illinois (Mrs. Miller).

Thank you very much, Morgan. I appreciate you. You always have a great legal mind, and I come to you for legal questions. You are a great person. Thank you.

Thank you so much, Juan. I am going to be calling you when I need help from the county. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Virginia (Mr. Griffith), my friend and colleague who is on the Committee on Energy and Commerce. I serve as…

Thank you very much, David. I greatly appreciate the friendship and the work we have done together. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Arizona (Mr. Ciscomani) my other Arizona colleague. Juan used to work for Governor Ducey, and…

Thank you very much, Diana. I greatly appreciate it. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Arizona (Mr. Schweikert), my colleague who is sitting to my left, who I have known for a long time, too. I went to your wedding reception, I…

Thank you very much, Andy. Congressman Biggs, you are a great friend. Thank you so much. We will be working many years together. I am going to keep calling you. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentlewoman from Tennessee (Mrs. Harshbarger)…

Thank you so much, Representative Stanton. I greatly appreciate the words. I will tell Joe, as well. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Arizona (Mr. Biggs), my friend and colleague who I have known for many years.

I thank Representative Gosar for his remarks. It means so much to me. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Arizona (Mr. Stanton), another colleague.

It has been the honor of my lifetime to serve in these sacred Halls of the U.S. House of Representatives. Part of that great honor is to serve with fantastic colleagues, Members of the U.S. House of Representatives. I yield to the…

I don't think there should be government mandates at all. I don't think they should be suggested because people don't trust the government.

In 2004, Arizona voters approved a ballot measure requiring proof of citizenship when registering to vote. Today, Arizona has two voter registration forms. There is one for those who can provide proof of citizenship, and those voters can…

I just want to emphasize that by saying what happened to my office.

Steve continues to struggle with his injuries today, all because he was forced to take an experimental vaccine.

I mean, it doesn't make any sense to me.

I mean, it's been years now. Why haven't you done it?

Chairman Wenstrup is a very respected, rational legislator, and he is not one to exaggerate.

Do we live in Communist China? Really, do we live in Communist China? I can't believe that the Biden administration first wants to ban gas stoves--we had to do legislation to prevent that. Now, they want to ban 67 percent of the…

I thank the gentleman for yielding, and I thank our colleagues for standing in respect of a great woman. She was not only a great woman for Arizona but a great woman and trailblazer for all women across America. As was said, she was the…

It is very worrisome that people are not being adequately compensated for injuries resulting from the COVID-19 vaccine as they would for other vaccines.

I support people having a choice. If they want to get a vaccine, get a vaccine. If they don't want to get a vaccine, they should not be forced by our government to get a vaccine.

So that is why us Republicans are trying to do permitting reform, because compared to other countries it takes us way too long to start these mines.

I said, so why did you basically close down the Resolution Copper Mine, which is over in Superior?

Thus, the unavoidable truth is that we cannot develop cleaner, greener technologies without more minerals and we cannot secure enough minerals without a significant focus on mining.
