The Democrats want you to ignore the issues I've addressed, but we aren't going to let that happen.

This is plan B of Nancy Pelosi's political power grab.

This is another example of partisan political power grab that we've seen since the beginning of this Congress.

Liberal progressives supporting this bill support stealing billions from their very own constituents to send it straight to D.C.

I think that the Democrats thus far in this Congress have displayed partisanship at unprecedented levels and I hope that we can change that.

Every Democrat who supports this bill should be asked one simple question: Is it their contention that the Founders did not anticipate all the arguments that are currently being made for D.C. Statehood?

Let's be very clear. Today's hearing is all about creating two new Democratic Senate seats.

Over the last few years Congress has appropriated record levels of funding to universities and many universities are using it well.

The American taxpayers don't want to spend any more money in Afghanistan.

I really don't see a viable long-term strategy for the United States in Afghanistan and I strongly support withdrawing the troops.

I want to talk about something very important to the people of Kentucky, and that is the Second Amendment. With President Biden taking office, there are renewed concerns with the safety of Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens…

I want to talk a little bit about H.R. 1, which passed the House of Representatives last week. Speaker Pelosi and the Democrats made clear what their top priority in this new Congress would be: a swamp takeover of America's elections. At…

I would like to talk about transparency in government spending. That is one of the main objectives of the House Oversight and Reform Committee. Not only do we ensure the prevention of waste, fraud, abuse, and mismanagement in government…

I want to conclude my remarks with mentioning an issue that will be debated by my colleagues over the next few days. I want to make clear to the people I represent, not just in the First Congressional District but the entire State of…

I urge all Members, on a bipartisan basis, to support this amendment. When reviewing H.R. 1 as introduced this Congress, I noticed it was missing several ethics provisions that were included in the bill last Congress when Donald Trump was…

This bill isn't about COVID. It isn't about providing relief to struggling Americans. This massive $1.9 trillion spending bill is about checking boxes with Democrat donors, political allies, and left-wing special interest groups. This bill…

there's nothing worse for a good government employee than to have to work beside a bad government employee

But the numbers were starting to come down due to reforms the Trump administration put in place, which is what a majority of Americans want and expect.

We realize that these hearings are more effective, more efficient, and a lot more professional when they are held in person.

It is time to focus on our border security, and I, again, urge President Biden and his administration to take the crisis at the border seriously.

Yet, President Biden, as one of his first acts in office, suspended enrollments in Migrant Protection Protocols.

Thank you again, Madam Chair, and we are very, very excited to have three returning ranking members to the House Oversight Committee.

The open border lobby isn't satisfied with that.
