Will you have any deep dive on the effect of that vast numbers of illegal immigrants create on a healthcare system in small or rural communities?

Did your staff or team see any torture?

I would note for the Record that one of the reasons that I am so proud to sponsor this bill is it is not an amnesty bill. This is a bill that is based on merit, and it even further enhances the merit aspects of this program. I am proud to…

Please provide a full discussion of the case, including its underlying facts, what the Supreme Court decided, and how the ruling relates to the use of arbitration today.

When the majority uses unreasonable timeframes in a subpoena and then moves so quickly toward contempt, it shows the motive.

My friends on the other side of the dais can only blame themselves for the current stalemate with the administration.

It is important to understand that there is no constitutional crisis, as the chairman asserted last week.

We are here today because my colleagues on the other side of the aisle are throwing a tantrum over information they want, but know they cannot have.

I am sure that my Democratic colleagues understand the financial burdens that their current legislation places on us.

I do not understand why it would not be germane. It is an environmental bill in front of the committee right now, and this is an environmental amendment to the bill.

This plan that Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Ed Markey introduced is transformational, transformational in that it will turn America into the socialist state that Bernie Sanders has cried for since he spent his…

Speaker Pelosi said this fantasyland plan is, quote, 'about jobs. It is about good-paying green jobs. It is about public health, clean air, and clean water for our children. It is about defending national security.' End of quote.

The underlying bill, the Climate Action Now Act, is nothing more than a progressive temper tantrum after President Trump wisely withdrew us from the flawed Paris Climate Agreement.

We are here to discuss a serious problem, the socialist takeover of the Democratic Party.

I think as we debate this and we talk about this on both sides it is important that we throw out some of the numbers related to what the U.S. has actually been going out there and achieving.

I find it amazing that we are having a debate about this without anybody really on either side bringing up a whole lot of the facts on reductions of emissions.

The mere threat of force can cause the military to abandon Mr. Maduro.

I cannot think of that on Venezuela. He gave a really passionate speech in Florida about freedom in Venezuela and Cuba.

Can we at least pick a week in the next month or when we come back from break where we can actually do things on a bipartisan basis again and kind of see how it feels?

I think you have caused my friends on the left to go to their safe spaces, and I would love to explore with you a little bit of the reason for that.

I think we really want to make sure that the workers and the farmers have a program that works for everybody.

This hearing is an important opportunity to examine America's agricultural labor needs and the role of foreign workers, an issue very important to me and the people of Colorado.
