I was really shocked me, when the Governor of my State, Ron DeSantis, actually turned down Federal cybersecurity dollars.

But, I mean, their proposals clearly, and just in some of the things that you have described, would lay off thousands of construction workers nationwide.

They want to cut it.

The impact of rolling back to fiscal year 2022 levels, I know, would be devastating.

The debt limit is fast approaching.

I think that's true of any kind of journalism. Once you start getting handed things, then you've lost.

The money is payment under Federal law--

The truth is that social media companies are unregulated monoliths. They pose danger to individuals.

Honest reporting would have explained that the $3.4 million was paid to release information, not censor it.

Being a Republican witness today certainly cast a cloud over your objectivity.

The gentleman is out of question and should not be interrupting a Member asking a question on our side, Mr. Chair.

The program began, or this iteration of the program began in 2018. It has been riddled with delays, issues impeding its success.

I think you know that women's healthcare at the VA has been a top priority of mine, both when I was chair and continuing.

How do you know that the culture is changing, that the satisfaction is improving, and that the transition from full customization to a seamless interoperable system between VA and DoD has been accepted and the training has been effective?

If those go through with these reckless and draconian cuts, the impact on our veterans will be devastating.

We appreciate that our housing situation is in need of dramatic improvement, and we're trying very hard with the help of Congress to get that right.

I am committed to making sure that we have a safe and secure place for our servicemembers to live and to work in the execution of their oath of enlistment.
