On the recordFebruary 11, 2015
I thank my good friend from the Grand Canyon State. No truer words have ever been spoken. Mr. Speaker, many of us sat in this very room back in January, and we listened to the President as he gave his State of the Union Address. He outlined a complete program, from the cradle to the grave, of what government would do--take over the rights of individuals. Many of us heard from citizens across the Nation that they were opposed to that. Mr. Speaker, if we allow this President to continue on legislating from the Oval Office, I would submit there is nothing standing in the way for him to implement every one of his plans. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from New Mexico (Mr. Pearce).
