15 seconds, for a gentleman from Louisiana, is just about enough time to say thank you. Mr. Chair, I encourage support of my amendment, and I yield back the balance of my time.

May I inquire how much time is remaining. The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Louisiana has 15 seconds remaining.

That means China is feeding Iran billions and billions of dollars.

You realize you are being set up as a sacrifice on the Green New Deal altar?

Russia is deeply engaged in renewed energy supply across Europe because the reliability of that supply chain has been crippled by Biden Administration policy decisions.

Prior to the executive's interference, the American LNG industry had been feeding reliable, affordable clean energy to our allies across the world.

You realize, of course, that the actions that you have taken on behalf of the executive for whom you work, it is impacting thousands and thousands of American lives and jobs.

The CCP continues to take advantage of the policies of this Administration.

Who is stopping us from holding that man accountable? He has been impeached by the People's House.

My Democrat colleagues and some of my Republican colleagues were focused on using this area to promote sending billions more American treasure to Ukraine.

This is your House, and this is a very real threat that we face right now, deal with political crap instead of forcing accountability.

I support Ukrainian people's right to defend themselves, but I work for the American citizenry.

This was how you try to get to a 'yes,' America. The answer is, yes, illegal aliens are being pulled from the cartel pipeline at DHS-established Regional Processing Centers in Central and South America and flown directly into the interior…

These are the words of the Biden administration.

Thus we have shifted. So it's where a sovereign nation exercises its authority upon sovereign soil, would you say, like our embassies--our embassies across the world are considered our sovereign soil, are they not?

A sovereign border in the United States, and for any country, is critical under laws to ensure--it is the responsibility of the country to ensure--

Secretary Mayorkas has taken his ill-conceived interpretation of parole and has perverted it to accelerate the mass entry of aliens.

We know that the process is inadequate.

They continue to make the U.S. Government the logistics arm of the international drug cartels.

The facts belie those claims.

Every State is a border State.

The probability of release is just as assured as for those flying into airports.

This is an abuse of parole by design.

DHS continues to fail in its basic homeland security mission: to secure the border.

But as an American, call us crazy, we would think that a security fee might be used for security.
