We need to go back to funding the RISS network so that we have the ability to move information from State and locals to our Federal partners, and our Federal partners back to State and local agencies.

I look forward to working together to bring robust oversight to the legislative branch.

The CFPB has a long track record of dodging or outright defying statutory limits on its authorities.

I was unavoidably delayed outside of the Chamber. Had I been present, I would have voted ``nay'' on rollcall No. 136. ____________________

The issue here is defining who is the king. Kings have ultimate authority without any constraint, without any oversight.

I want to talk about the security of the Capitol itself.

I believe the Bank Secrecy Act needs to be revised because we are dealing with reporting thresholds that were developed in the 1970s at $10,000, to where it should be around $65,000 to $70,000 today.

I think this illustrates that we have some areas that we are still not really thinking about...

If you don't need something, don't keep it, because you don't have to protect what you don't have.

I think if we look at what we are doing, and I think this is what this committee hearing is about today, and how much funding we are doing to the Chinese government to be able to compete with us on those fronts, whether it is militarily…

the government is our biggest security risk because as it is mandating massive amounts of data to be collected...

U.S. law enforcement agencies have repeatedly called China the most significant state actor of threat to our country in cyberspace.

If we are not using the data, why are we collecting it? Why are we keeping it?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I just want to congratulate you on taking the reins of this committee, and the ranking member.

I thank my friend, Ranking Member Davis, for yielding me the time. I will address something that I heard just a few moments ago from my colleague from Wyoming listing off a number of conservative commentators about how great this bill is…

They see that this body and its reckless spending is why we have record inflation in this moment. For that reason, I encourage my colleagues to vote ``no'' on the Presidential Election Reform Act, and then let's work together on something…

I am proud to join with Ranking Member Davis and my good friend Mr. Steil on a bill that we are pushing forward.

No Republican member of Congress led any kind of reconnaissance tours through the Capitol proven by security footage.

But no one in that group showed that type of aggression that day.

They've never sent me a letter asking me, never called me. I would have been glad to talk to them because it was nothing. There's nothing there.

the tour that he gave was a constituent family with young children and that they never entered the Capitol Building.

I was unavoidably, detained and missed the vote. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea'' on Rollcall No. 169. Members Recorded Pursuant to House Resolution 8, 117th Congress Amodei (Balderson) Blumenauer (Beyer) Bourdeaux (Wexton)…

Whatever happens here, we have to keep in mind that every person in this room is an American citizen that has rights and freedoms and part of that right and freedom is to participate in a free and fair market economy.

I am almost speechless--not entirely, I have plenty to say--that we are here doing this, because obviously, some of my colleagues haven't learned anything from history, especially recent history.

Yes, if you really buy into a lot of what we heard here today, that it is the big corporations that are the problem and it is not the self-imposed destructive policies that have brought us to where we are right now.
