Until the Department of Justice investigates everyone involved in the Bidens' corrupt influence peddling schemes, it will be clear department officials continue to cover for the big guy, Joe Biden.

I strongly encourage this Administration not to saddle the industry with excessive and burdensome rules and regulations that are only increasing the cost to consumers, which is fueling inflation in America.

I strongly encourage the Department to work closely with the community to ensure that reindustrialization continues in parallel with the cleanup efforts.

I urge you to move quickly on this analysis so that we can ensure that the upcoming appropriations bill allows the Department to move forward with the best option to support cleanup efforts, which is our goal there in Paducah.

You said coal is shutting down because of economics. It is shutting down because of the economics created by the Biden Administration, and even further back than that, the Obama-Biden Administration.

President Biden and the Secretary should not be prioritizing foreign energy over American energy.

My legislation to end neutrality agreements, Representative Owens Salt Act to expose workers who are only there to stir up trouble, and Representative Burlison's Workers Choice Act, which promotes the right to work.

Republicans have actual legislative solutions.

We cannot allow big labor to continue the despicable practices that harm employers and undermine employee rights.

At the very least, Congress should pass a National Right to Work Act, and guarantee that every worker at least has the freedom, not to be forced to pay dues to a union to keep their jobs.

Unfortunately, union organizers often attempt to rob employees of their right to vote in secret ballots, and of the right to free speech with union organizing agreements.

Secret ballot elections and free speech are the backbone of our political process, and the political process of any nation that could call itself a democracy.

Is anyone entitled to receive Federal funds?

Does NIH agree with this decision?

I believe we have worked constructively on a bipartisan basis.

We want to hold people accountable for wrongdoing.

We have some serious concerns. We have fought in this Select Subcommittee, the Oversight Committee on obtaining information.

Does the NIH FOIA Office teach employees how to avoid transparency?

I do not think that is where we want to go.

If this is really about readiness, we have major recruiting problems that we can deal with.

One of the biggest issues that has led to our recruitment goals not being met is the woke turn our military has taken.

It guaranteed 1,500 people could illegally enter the country every day.

Over a year ago, we passed out the best border security bill that has come out in a generation, but the Senate refuses to take it up.

The commitment demonstrated by American military and Foreign Service members who volunteer to serve our country is often accompanied by challenges for their own spouses maintaining gainful employment.

I think that is a false equivalency that we should not assume.
