It really is a perfect storm in many ways for them to make that essentially a fait accompli for the United States.

I don't think the United States in many ways across our whole of society has fully woken up to what Xi has explicitly stated he wants to go.

There is a large body of analysis out there that I have seen that essentially wants China or believes that China is going to follow that same model.

Qasem Soleimani, as we have discussed, many of us have discussed here today, was a terrorist and a terrorist supporter, and hundreds of American troops were killed because of him. Many of them are scarred for life. I don't think we can…

For those of you saying actions have consequences, let me remind you that inaction has consequences. Go to Walter Reed or Arlington, or go visit the American contractor, as though that is some kind of term, the American that was killed…

I am a Green Beret and a proud veteran, but this process does not make me proud. I fought all over the world, from Africa to Afghanistan, and I have seen fair and more transparent processes than this. Since the Democrats lost the election…

I am proud to join my colleague, Representative Crow, in that expansion of the SIV program which I think is critical to our local allies and to our ability to move forward.

We need to be very careful in equating mistakes, perhaps bad judgment calls, with a war crime.

I would submit to my colleagues that is a war criminal and we need to be very careful about very loosely throwing around that term.

Since 1904, the Bethune Cookman University, a historically Black college, has contributed to a rich and diverse history in my district. Four thousand students proudly call this university home in Florida's Sixth District, and we are proud…

I introduced H.R. 1911, the Sergeant First Class Brian Woods Gold Star and Military Survivors Act.

My legislation simply allows surviving spouses to continue to move forward with their lives, allow them to remarry free of fear for losing their benefits owed to them for their family's noble sacrifice.

Thank you, Chairwoman Luria and Ranking Member Bost, for hosting today's legislative hearing.

1 year ago, on October 2, Volusia County, Florida, lost one of its greatest public servants, Dorothy Hukill. Dorothy Hukill was a servant leader who dedicated more than two decades of her life serving our community, working tirelessly to…

Importantly, in 2018, Florida received the third lowest allotment per capita, according to the EPA, yet it has the third most significant infrastructure needs in the country. This is unacceptable, particularly for a program so important in…

I thank my delegation colleague, Congressman Mast, for drafting this important bill, the South Florida Clean Coastal Waters Act of 2019, to address the HABs problem, the harmful algal blooms, and improve water quality in Florida. I also…

But deep fake technology, which can literally put words in our mouths, undermines public trust in any digital communication.

I'm interested in the disinformation piece of it, are you seeing increasing evidence of our adversaries conducting disinformation against individuals, whether they're thought leaders, journalists, politicians?

Hello, everyone. I'm sorry I can't be in town for the hearing today, but I wanted to make sure to share my concerns about digital impostors.

Deep fake technology, which can literally put words in our mouths, undermines public trust in any digital communication.

These videos, and this technology, have the potential to truly be a weapon for our adversaries.

I think it's important for my colleagues to note that was a policy change under this Administration that then allowed Cyber Command to take those kind of, what they call active defensive measures, and taking election security very…

the FBI and Department of Homeland Security have briefed us that they're confident, at least at this point in time, that active hacking into our election infrastructure has diminished, at least for now.

As the technology for generating deepfakes improves, we risk falling behind on the detection front.

I certainly support my colleagues in how we can get our arms around this as a country.
