A data search that suppresses anyone or steers anyone in a direction, by definition, denies equal relevance to data.

Course Correct is trying to nudge us in a direction of understanding and agreeing upon verifiable truth.

What you have is the power of the Executive Branch being used to reduce the opposition or the redress or the free speech or the communication of people who might disagree with what was being put out by the Executive Branch, which happened…

What the CCP fears the most is bipartisan support, engagement by the Congress in the Indo-Pacific region.

The people who wrote the dissent cable are free to come to this committee, free to come to our staff and free to come to the chairman as legitimate whistleblowers to be fully protected.

The very act of Federal dollars being used to stifle that speech is, in fact, historically what we would consider an indictment against the First Amendment protection.

The limit of free speech historically has been incitement to violence or anarchy, the actual overthrow of a government.

Inaction Is No Longer an Option.

I spoke on this a year or two ago, and not much has happened except more time has passed since this land was taken from this Tribe. I represent 21 Tribes in my congressional district. I believe that when I come to the floor, people look…

I don't just rise in opposition to this bill, and I don't want to appear angry, but as a veteran who served both as an enlisted man and as an officer from 1970 until nearly 1990, I know what it is like to get an honorable discharge--not…

what can you point to as specifics of accomplishment?

I thank the gentleman for yielding me time. Mr. Speaker, 5 minutes is not enough to go through each and every item that is wrong with this bill, so I am going to try to summarize, and some of it may be redundant. The authors of this bill…

I do think that it is important that you follow the facts where they lead and that you go after terrorists.

Mr. Chair, we can do better than HIPAA in this Committee. With that, I yield back.

The challenge is to restore the original intent, the original intent being that which is held to be yours and reasonably expected to be for privacy must be returned to privacy.

I thank the gentleman for yielding time. Mr. Speaker, 2 minutes is not enough time to describe the fog of war. Two minutes is not enough time to describe a level of heroism that occurred more than half a century ago over the waters of…

Listening to the initial debate here, you would believe that there was a legitimate difference of opinion here on the floor about protecting the Justices. Clearly, there was no such difference in the U.S. Senate. What there is, though, is…

To say I yield myself such time as I may consume is too short to recap these 2 days of the assault on the Second Amendment. I will only say, in closing, that it might seem reasonable in this bill--these five or six or seven different bills…

I join with the chairman in support of all of the changes that were added in the Senate, they were thoughtful, and I believe not just appropriate but necessary. I don't want to pile on the same statements made already because they were…

I am disappointed--and we're going to go over it, at no surprise today--in your current performance.

They've got a muzzle on me.

Your Border Patrol's job is to deter and deny people's entrance unless they have a bona fide ability, and you're not doing that.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you for holding this important hearing.
