I don't think this country needs another impeachment charade.

I think it’s really unfair to imply that I like to see corruption in Washington, D.C.

So I think it has never been more important for Congress to really commit to pro-growth policies that help American leadership on the global stage.

Yes, the expansion of the Child Tax Credit would, without a doubt, help myself and my neighbors and others.

It would help to reduce child poverty. It would alleviate financial pressure on real working families.

Kids deserve to have a loving, happy family, and this can help with that.

Without action, 30 million small businesses in the United States will be faced with a massive tax hike.

It would disproportionately impact small businesses, lead to job losses, and diminish the competitive position of American companies in the global market.

It would expand the Child Tax Credit, include provisions for paid family leave, support for expecting parents and pregnancy centers.

I want to talk a little bit more about something that has already been discussed today, and that is the Child Tax Credit and the expansion of that under the 2017 Trump tax cuts.

Democrats, including Vice President Harris, have promised to roll back these important tax cuts that Randy was just talking about.

But our ranking member on that committee said just a few months ago in our markups this year, we do not have a spending problem; we have a revenue problem.

I think there is a philosophical difference happening right now in Washington, D.C. We believe that that is your money, not the government's money.

I think China is certainly trying to bypass any legal channels and go around ports of entry.

Ensuring that the cutter and the Waterways Commerce Cutter Program is a priority going forward for the region. It is an absolute priority for me.

This is not only a safety issue, but it seems like it is a blatant and systematic attack on our communities.

Just a few weeks ago, in our Select Committee on China, we had a hearing on fentanyl about how communist China is working directly with the cartels to funnel fentanyl precursors into our country by any means necessary.

It is appalling the lengths that China is willing to go to to funnel these precursors into our country.

They are redirecting your employees in many cases to help deal with that...

I would urge the administration to prioritize here.

I find it incredibly frustrating to see a $4.7 billion slush fund request from Secretary Mayorkas...

Simplicity--obviously if you are entering the same information, and it is a redundant process over and over and over again, I mean, that is the element of frustration that Iowans and Americans certainly face.

A key stressor that I continue to hear about back home is the need for a universal application for disaster survivors.

Obviously, that is essential that communication for saving lives and helps make sure that we can get those alerts out.

I offered to bring 40 cents from my tax check to pay it off.
