Thank you for the opportunity to testify today in support of the Federal Interior Lands Media Act, or the FILM Act.

Not long ago, America was the largest energy producer in the world. Gas was affordable, and groceries weren't worth an entire paycheck. These are not faraway memories from our country's bygone golden era--this was the reality for Americans…

Good Neighbor Agreements strengthen the partnership with Federal land management agencies and state, county and Tribal governments.

Counties support the reauthorization and expansion of shared stewardship contracting authorities for Federal land management agencies.

Counties call on Congress to expand the Good Neighbor Authority (GNA) to enhance the ability of the USFS and BLM to partner with counties.

if we try to do anything in a bipartisan fashion, it is difficult because my friends on the other side of the aisle, in terms of energy production, they are not real fond of coal, not real fond of hydro because of dams, not real fond of…

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. And to the panel, thank you for being here and for your testimony and your input.

Tonight, President Biden will give his address on the state of our Union. His version of the facts will sound wonderful but stand in stark contrast to the true state of the Union for many Americans today. Unmentioned in his speech will be…

My colleague from the State of Washington and my colleague from the State of Montana and I share some very similar concerns and some very similar demographics, so I am here to rise in opposition to the attempts to ban any kind of aerial…

We recently learned that the Biden administration is considering funding mining projects abroad with American tax dollars in order to address our country's mineral supply concerns. Mr. Speaker, we have seen this movie before: President…

Our country is blessed with abundant natural resources that are the envy of the world. The governance of those resources is the responsibility of all of us to make our outdoor spaces manageable and accessible for enjoyment of all. I am…

It is 2022 in the U.S. Congress. We have crises with inflation, energy, and homeland security. We have got issues with the border, the Ukrainian invasion, and the list goes on. The only thing higher than the degree of partisanship is our…

What is a just transition to so-called clean energy? We have been hearing the term all week from my colleagues across the aisle. Does a just transition mean the highest inflation in 40 years or record energy prices? Does it mean handing…

I thank the ranking member of the Committee on Natural Resources from the State of Arkansas. Mr. Speaker, here we are, yet again, discussing the most important issue of our day: cats. Not just any cats, but big cats. My constituents have…

However, as we exit this pandemic, creating permanent changes to school nutrition programs without first determining if such changes are needed is nonsensical.

The nutrition of children should not be used as a tool to advance the Biden Administration's progressive agenda.

Americans need answers.

the FDA's failure to act with expediency really has caused some panic, and we are struggling with that.

Committee Republicans understand the importance of ensuring children are well-fed during the school day, and we recognize the importance of reaching students that are truly in need with the benefits of school-provided nutritional programs.

This should be a time the USDA should listen to the local folks on the ground and learn from the challenges the pandemic taught us.

What is the plan on the decisionmakers? What is the process? Who will be making the decisions on where to spend that money?

We must secure our baby formula supply chain, so this never happens again.

the Secretary recently announced a $100 million program that was created to, I will use the quote 'create a new Healthy Food Incentive Fund.'

Ms. Long, in your view is it--is that really happening, and if so, who are the decisionmakers?

Please do. Thank you. Another question. What programs does the USDA support that may have to do with promoting better feeding and nutrition at home?
