We built aqueducts to move water from wet regions to dry regions.

We need to declare them terrorists so we can get at their money stream.

Excess timber is going to come out of the forest in only two ways. Either we will carry it out or nature will burn it out.

After 50 years of experience with NEPA, the results are devastating: entire communities wiped out by catastrophic fire.

California has done enormous damage to its economy by imposing the most draconian carbon restrictions in the country.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I am pleased to introduce Brian Veerkamp, a 5th-generation resident of El Dorado County.

By the afternoon of that same day, Joe Biden had reversed these successful policies and initiated an unprecedented illegal mass migration on a scale that no civilization in history has ever survived.

The average number of people who entered illegally across the Yuma Sector is now percolating up at 2,500 a week.

Never forget what happened on day 1. Day 1, January 20, 2021, Joe Biden said: We're not going to build the wall anymore...

Since that afternoon, this administration has deliberately admitted into the interior of our country 1.9 million illegal immigrants, 600,000 of whom have not even been given notices to appear in court.

I am sad to be before you today to discuss the failures of the Biden Administration on the southwest border in the Yuma Sector.

Now, of course, virtually all these migrants don't stay here. Where do they go?

When President Trump faithfully executed those laws, our borders were secure.

It's a shame that the Democrats did not join us today in Yuma.

These are estimated to exceed the 1.2 million since Biden took office.

Is it just a matter of time before we see the same things here?

There's no question that this policy is deliberate and calculated.

Could we expect to see the kind of violent cartel gun battles in our cities that we're now seeing in Mexico?

So, this is going to be impacting every hospital in the country?

Since President Biden took office, we saw a huge surge, a record number of people crossing illegally from 106 different countries.

We have to ask ourselves; how does it make our schools better to pack classrooms with non-English speaking students?

Only in Joe Biden's America is over 5,000 illegal migrants encounter per day on the southwest border a cause to celebrate.

History is screaming this warning at us. Countries that cannot or will not enforce their borders simply aren't around very long.

Obviously that money doesn't come from nowhere. It comes out of what you'd otherwise be spending.

This is not just a Yuma, Arizona, problem, but that illegal entry, human trafficking, and narcotics... has now compounded and pervaded across the United States.
