Jody Hice

This is shameful, shameful behavior by everyone who is involved.

I encouraged GSA to do what they are supposed to do, which is to follow the law, not to react to the vitriol being spewed by the political left.

I would just, for the record, bring back to reality that, in 2010, that was kind of a watermark year for IRS funding.

I believe it's improper for you to accuse the President or seemingly accuse him of not paying his taxes.

This is, again, an attempt to create political assassination, as I referred to in my opening statements.

I think just the mere notion that this hearing is a postal update is utter nonsense.

I think Mr. Roy's point regarding the HEROES Act, that it was $3.4 trillion of swamp spending and did not even extend the PPP.

There was an investigation by the Office of Special Counsel that concluded that the United States Postal Service improperly coordinated with the Postal Workers Union in support of Hillary Clinton.

If the Democrats have their way in this election, it will be filled with fraud. It will be filled with confusion.

There is no question in my mind that the vast majority of USPS workers are faithful workers.

The Democrats are really trying to do, and that is themselves to fraudulently influence the upcoming election.

This is unprecedented and, again, to me I believe is an example of political malpractice on the side of the Democrats.

There have been several comments from--misleading comments, quite frankly--from our colleagues on the other side that implied that somehow the floods that we're seeing, the increased intensity of storms, or whatever, is somehow due to the…

This whole thing, to me, ought to be deeply troubling and, at worst, it should be seen as election interference.

We continue not doing our job of oversight and in this case specifically as it relates to the census.

It is illegal for a noncitizen to vote. It is illegal for them to be involved in our political process.

Ultimately our agencies were incapable of meeting the needs and the responsibilities they are required to do.

The lack thereof certainly exposes us to security risks, as well as the inability for flexibility and scaling up.

We can no longer allow outdated, legacy technology to stymie the delivery of vital public services.

The Constitution can change by amendment only. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Alabama (Mr. Brooks).

It certainly can happen. It just requires a constitutional amendment. Mr. Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. Harris), my good friend.

To somehow try to paint a picture that D.C. is a second-class city is absolute absurdity. Without question, this is the most influential city in this country--perhaps in the world. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from…

I feel like the arguments on the other side of the aisle are so weak that they respond by yelling louder. We have just heard a great, passionate speech about something that is totally irrelevant. In fact, the point was highlighted that the…

I would just say again that our Constitution has representation here in our Capitol from the Federation of the States, and this district was set apart, not to be a State, nor to be influenced by one. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the…

I will just remind my good friend, listen, we share the concern if people are upset, if it is not working. But the reality is, if it is not working, we have a system in this government, in our system, to deal with it. And in this case, it…
