President Biden also promised in an ABC News interview just a few days after the Taliban takeover of Kabul that, if there are American citizens left, we're going to stay until we get them all out.

I disagree. To this date, we're still unclear on how many Americans were left behind in Afghanistan.

I am proud to see H.R. 7409, the 'Harnessing Energy At Thermal Sources Act' or the 'HEATS Act' considered in today's hearing.

Since the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, under the Biden Administration, all hard-fought progress and basic freedoms and rights for Afghan women have vanished.

I thank Representative Ami Bera for co-leading this legislation with me. I thank Chairman McCaul, Ranking Member Meeks, and Representative Kathy Manning for their support and the many human rights organizations who helped build support for…

I want to thank you so much for everything that you're doing and I'm really looking forward to full implementation of AUKUS.

I am a proud co-sponsor of H.R. 7152, Divided Families National Registry Act.

I want to thank the Committee for considering my bill, H.R. 6994, and I also want to thank Representative LaMalfa for co-leading this bill with me.

The ROUTES Act requires Federal land management agencies to reopen trails, roads, campgrounds, and recreation sites that are damaged and closed by natural disasters like wildfires within 2 years of the disaster.

I am proud to see that H.R. 6994, the Restoring Our Unopened Trails for Enjoyment and Safety Act--in short, the ROUTES Act--is being considered in today's hearing.

Thank you, Chairman Tiffany and Ranking Member Neguse for holding this hearing, and I want to thank Chairman Westerman and your staff for your leadership on the issues before us today.

As a mother, as a grandmother, and now it pains me to think that there are children in this country not enjoying the care, protection, and the love of their own parents.

Now more than ever, is very important that any border legislation that is considered has input from both sides of the aisle.

I introduced H.R. 3508, the Comprehensive Southern Border Strategy Act. This is a bipartisan bill to create a southern border strategy to secure every mile of our border.

Our Southern Border continues to be an urgent national security, humanitarian, and public health crisis.

The border crisis has led to many unaccompanied migrant children being released to live with strangers who could exploit them.

I urge this committee to seriously consider my bipartisan legislation H.R. 3508 for mark-up.

Under current law, American seniors who defer enrollment in Medicare may find themselves hit with higher fees due to late enrollment charges. Permanently raising seniors' healthcare premiums for delaying Medicare enrollment only hurts…

I support Mr. Waltz' amendment naming and sharing those stories of two additional individuals who are victims of the Uyghur genocide.

Thank you, Chairman McCaul and Ranking Member Meeks, for holding today's markup and for bringing up my legislation.

Unfortunately, you don't mention inflation once in your testimony.

The CFPB, in the name of consumer protection, is being used to divert the public's attention from the real challenges faced by individuals and families.

From its inception, the way the CFPB was designed disregarded longstanding checks and balances.

Even the President is accountable to Congress and to the power of the purse, and the CFPB should not be the exception to longstanding constitutional rules.

It's really important that we provide the protection for women workers there too--the NGO workers.
