We know that immigrants make our country stronger and we are a Nation of immigrants.

You might as well at this point be doing a Twitter poll, which is the same exact thing as a non-statistical survey.

Asylum is a legal right in this country, and claiming asylum is, so--

It is also true that these numbers should be not celebrated but welcomed as progress in our ability to control and secure the border.

Seeking asylum is not a crime. That is what many of our families have done.

Let's be very clear, that crisis did not happen. This hearing is an attempt to manufacture one.

I hope that we can all commend the Biden-Harris Administration for their actions to prevent a serious disorder at the border following the expiration of Title 42, which I believe was the right decision.

the biggest obstacle to fair pricing is Big Pharma, period.

This monopoly that is currently in place in our country is hurting average Americans, and especially low-income folks and seniors.

And Mr. DeJoy, thank you for being here, and I especially want to thank all the women and men of the Postal Service, the incredible folks.

First, this has been in -- already at the Ethics Committee for the last three months, and there's been no action. And Kevin McCarthy has not taken action. And so, this is really cop out of there by the speaker to try to give cover to…

Now we know that, unfortunately, for many Americans living in poverty, especially those without stable housing, mail and the delivery of mail is very difficult.

We know that there are barriers to voting disproportionately for folks that are unhoused, that might be immigrants, or folks that may not have direct access to mail.

For people who cannot afford access to a P.O. box, the general delivery service is the only way that they can access essential mail, including food benefits, health insurance, housing vouchers, and more.

can you please get us an ADA ramp for the post office.

I have also always said that we need to get more mayors and local officials elected to Congress.

In my city alone we lost 1,300 people from our community. We know that across the country, we have lost over 1.3 million American lives.

I know the impacts of this pandemic and how destructive it can be on families.

I am very concerned about the attack on vaccination efforts.

yes, our ships are better, our workers are better, but as far as who is building more ships and the capacity there is no question that over many decades, that has shifted, unfortunately, to China.

I was mayor of Long Beach for the last eight years, so we have a large public health department, about half a million people, so I saw firsthand the impact of our vaccine rollout and how important it was to public health.

I want to also commend the Biden Administration for reaching the historic August agreement with Australia and the U.K.

the capacity and our ability to build ships is dramatically different, and I just want to remind us that, in China, they build on the commercial side approximately 1,000 ships a year.

when we are talking about the capacity and the ability of the American shipbuilding to Chinese shipbuilding, no one certainly is going to argue that we do not have the best work force and that we do not have the best military anywhere in…
