Our concern here is with government censorship. This legislation is focused on Federal employees and government agencies coercing private sector companies into taking away First Amendment rights.

we are asking for the exact same budget that the committee had in the previous Congress.

We could get into an argument over how much oversight was provided previously in the last 2 years of this administration.

We have important work to do this Congress to uncover and to prevent government waste, fraud, and abuse.

I think the government employees should not be allowed to censor free speech, whether they be Republicans or Democrats, whether that be Donald Trump or Joe Biden or the next president.

The American people were silenced for three years because of what China has done and because of our Federal Government colluding to cover up what China released into the globe.

I feel compelled to respond. These resolutions have been called paternalistic. However, the last time Congress passed a joint resolution of disapproval was all the way back in 1990, my senior year in high school--I am 50 years old, Mr…

It appears my Democratic colleagues would rather disregard their statutory responsibility in the Home Rule Act. How convenient to pick and choose when to do their duty. Mr. Speaker, I yield 5 minutes to the gentleman from Georgia (Mr…

there is evidence on there that should concern every American about potential corruption

It creates a trust issue. So, the American people do not trust what they are being told.

There was no evidence of the Trump campaign colluding with Russia. There was none.

The Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign paid Fusion GPS to fabricate the Steele dossier, which was the basis of this entire Russia collusion investigation.

But it is not Joe Biden, it is Donald J. Trump, and of course we don't want to talk about that.

It appears to me that you failed at your jobs.

But you are aware now.

the laptop has been mislabeled by many in the mainstream media as being Russia disinformation

Isn't it correct that the Biden campaign had contact with Twitter in the run-up to the 2020 election?

we believe that we need to make sure that this Administration is not compromised because of the millions of dollars that they have received from our adversaries around the world

Make no mistake, the state of our border is in crisis.

We believe that people are getting killed because of the fentanyl that's coming across the border every day.
