I think it is safe to say that not every Member of Congress has a plan for what to do about Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, but I think we all agree that the hearing is warranted.
Adam Kinzinger
The Public Record
Adam Kinzinger is a former U.S. Representative for Illinois's 16th congressional district, serving from 2013 to 2023. A member of the Republican Party, Kinzinger gained national attention for his outspoken views on various political issues, particularly his criticism of former President Donald Trump. He was one of the few Republicans to support the impeachment of Trump and served on the House Select Committee investigating the January 6th Capitol riot.
It is interesting, on the last line of questions, you know, one of the best things about democracy is our ability to have free speech and share opinions, but this can also be something that is a real threat.
The President's biggest promise in the campaign wasn't to get out of all these wars, it was to defeat ISIS.
And because of a conversation with a basically dictator, President Trump pulled 50 soldiers, 50 people back, and those 50 people were holding back a Turkish attack.
I think the President makes very impulsive decisions on foreign policy, he can made an impulsive decision without thinking through the results of that.
Thank you for being here. Your stories were both emotional and also informing.

Most of us here--I think all of us get along really well. We actually respect each other.
I may be outnumbered today, but I assure you there is a 100 percent turnout of Republicans from northern Illinois.
I'm here to listen to our witnesses and the people of this community to learn more about what's working...
I want to reiterate it is a complex problem that requires a comprehensive, holistic approach.
Desperation can be a dangerous trigger, and to the extent we can work on helping and healing those who are struggling...
I worked with the Chairman, Mr. Doyle, to introduce H.R. 4461, the Network Security Information Sharing Act, which will be part of the discussion here today.
No foreign actor should have the ability to eavesdrop on U.S. citizens or our government.
The security of American communications and information networks is paramount to national security.
No terrorist should be allowed in the United States unless they are in chains.
The Camp David meeting was an utter disaster and never should have happened, infuriated me.
I think, frankly, if we want any favorable negotiation... you do that through prosecuting the war against the Taliban and saying we are willing to have peace, but until we do it is going to be painful.
I am concerned that the President's statements... declaring his desire to get out of Afghanistan... is only emboldening the Taliban in the discussion.
I think the Camp David meeting was an utter disaster and never should have happened.
