Today, I am happy to partner with Congresswoman Mace on legislation to allow just this kind of competition when it comes to our Federal cybersecurity jobs.

This GOP bill benefits absolutely no one but extremist mega lawmakers who want to defund programs and entire agencies and offices that they just do not like.

If we think there is a real problem with the way the interaction between authorizations and appropriations works in Congress, let us have some hearings.

If you vote against this amendment and for this bill, you are voting to cut veterans' healthcare, slash the National Institutes of Health, throw families out of housing through Section 8, gut NASA, and defund the FBI.

My amendment would exempt programs and associated budgetary levels that pertain to the defense of Ukraine against the imperialist invasion of Ukraine by Vladimir Putin and the Russian military.

This amendment would exempt veterans' medical care from the drastic cuts in Federal funding and program termination.

PLAs work, and legalizing their non-use, mandating their non-use is fraught with problems.

When Republicans attack project labor agreements, it is not just an attack on working people.

I thank Subcommittee Chairwoman Mace, and our Ranking Member of the Subcommittee, Connolly, for their leadership on this bill in the House.

The Modernizing the Acquisition of Cybersecurity Experts Act stops the Federal Government from ruling out people without a specific educational credential.

Eliminating PLAs across the board for projects with Federal funding is really an open attack on working people.
