I will remind everyone what we are talking about today. This keeps the government open. It secures the border, and it, frankly, reduces wasteful spending. That is what we are dealing with here. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the…

I reserve the balance of my time. Ms. DeLAURO. Mr. Speaker, I remind the gentleman from Arizona that there will be 63,000 households in Arizona that will be without the low-income energy assistance benefits. These are not just numbers…

I respectfully rise in opposition. The gentleman from Arizona brings up, I think, really legitimate reasons for his concern about the out-of-control spending and, frankly, what this administration has done. However, because of that, the…

I strongly support this amendment. Look, this is a horrifying practice of literally just mutilating women around the world. An estimated 200 million women and girls have undergone this form of female genital mutilation, including, by the…
