I appreciate the work that you put into this legislation. I look forward to helping you pass this bill this year.

To continue this recent historic progress, we must continue to advance projects that remove barriers to sending water south, and restore the historic flow paths of the Everglades.

I support reauthorizing these projects in this WRDA bill, and appreciate your ongoing attention to the extension of shore protection projects that will expire soon.

A special thanks to Chairman DeFazio for his leadership on this committee over the years.

Thank you so much, Madam Chair and Ranking Member, for the chance to share how vital the Water Resources Development Act is for Florida.

Cyber criminals clearly want the World Wide Web to be a lawless 'Wild West,' and it is critical that we modernize our approach.

Civil asset forfeiture creates perverse incentives, as we've heard, for law enforcement agencies that stand to benefit financially from increased numbers of seizures.

If we are to effectively counter the terrorist threats that exist today we have to work fully with our international allies and partners to ensure foreign terrorist groups cannot spread their hateful messages and inspire others to commit…

To address the threat of home-grown violent extremism, we really need to be proactive about de-legitimizing terrorist ideology and countering their messaging.

Cyber-attacks on our critical infrastructure pose a serious risk to--and I quote--'the American way of life.'

I thank the gentleman for yielding. Libertad para Cuba. Patria y vida. (English translation of Spanish is as follows: Freedom for Cuba. Country and life.)

Make no mistake. We are united today around the Cuban people's fight for libertad and patria y vida. I ask all Members to embrace the unifying principles in this resolution which avoids the policy arguments and expresses our support for…

Except you are opposing the reduction policies on methane emissions in the Build Back Better Act.

Mr. Woods, you can say what you want about climate change, but words matter. Actions matter more.

That is just grossly irresponsible, and what you should be doing is working toward trying to find compromise.

The Chamber is continuing and expanding its efforts to defeat the reconciliation bill and opposes efforts to link the infrastructure bill to the reconciliation bill.

You are not doing your job very well if you don't know that answer.

I find that offensive being from ground zero in the state of Florida where climate change and its impact is not a someday thing. It is a right now thing.

And certainly increasing. Thank you. And I want to drill down and explore how the ERA could affect a specific legal claim in my home state of Florida.
