If NASA is unable to attract private companies to utilize these facilities, what will happen to them?

I was unavoidably detained in a meeting in my office and didn't make it to the floor before the gavel came down for the first vote (rollcall Vote 308) in this series. I did vote for the subsequent rollcall votes in this series. Had I been…

It is inconceivable to me, unless you are from the most dysfunctional agency in the entire world, that you would come here before this committee today unprepared to answer the very simple questions that you have been asked.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is a great sounding name. But there seems to be some reason to question whether the title actually reflects the mission, or if in reality it is an oxymoron.

I thank the gentleman for yielding. I am pleased that my bipartisan bill, the Deployed Troops Support Act, is part of an en bloc amendment later this evening. My amendment simply allows the Department of Defense to transport, on a…

We had a crisis, and the crisis was caused by Congress; if we had to start locking people up, you would probably start with Congress.

Where are the jobs? I'll tell you where they're not. They're not created or seemingly even encouraged by the U.S. Department of Commerce. The Department is still bullying small mom-and-pop businesses to complete lengthy, time- consuming…

Spending more money than you make doesn't do anything to inspire confidence either.

Job creation and economic growth have to be a top priority.

I think in regard to Mr. Pearce's question, and before that Mr. Campbell's from California, you said there is an awful lot you would have to look into to answer Mr. Campbell's questions, but when the gentleman from Georgia, Mr. Scott…

The biggest impediment to job growth in this country right now seems to be the overuse and overstepping of administrative rules.

It is critical to our national security that it is not being unnecessarily delayed in a way that jeopardizes the U.S. space launch capabilities.

Our national security and our leadership in space depends on a capable and functioning XY Building.

National defense is the government's greatest constitutional responsibility, and I appreciate the challenges faced by the committee.

The XY Building is the hub for commercial telemetry and radar for Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.

I would also like to say I am pleased to be here today and joined by Resident Commissioner Pierluisi in support of a bill awarding the Congressional Gold Medal to Puerto Rico's 65th Infantry Regiment, also known as the Borinqueneers. When…

Generally, we believe that what's good for the goose is good for the gander. That's why I was a little bit shocked when it was brought to my attention by a number of my colleagues that they received an economic census in the mail--a very…

I have said it before and I will say it again, of all the agency heads that I have had the privilege to sit in, you have been the one that has been the most forthcoming and straight talking, and I appreciate that.

How do we justify such questionable studies as a priority for funding?

It is very clear that almost everyone believes that NASA lacks direction, and we need to somehow find a way to establish that direction.

A nation that does not operate on a budget is plagued by irresponsible spending with bloated budgets, unfathomable debts and jeopardizes its long-term sustainability. That's true of any family or business and it's true of governments as…

My time is very limited here. So, clearly, definitely, unequivocally you have studied vaccinated versus unvaccinated?

In the course of answering this, one of the witnesses told me that the fugitive doctor had been involved in a couple studies with CDC.

I mean, you know this guy is a humongous scumbag, one of the most wanted men on earth, and you relied upon him for data to determine whether thimerosal had a negative effect.

I have seen a chart that ranks the longevity of the 30 nations with the best mortality rates in the world, starting with Iceland, Sweden, Singapore and on down. We didn't even make the top 30. We are the 34th.
