I rose to vacate the order of the House of November 5 because, having reviewed the Speaker's announced policies, the decision in the Chair should have been to not entertain the motion to table on that day. ____________________

Of course, they are sicker because we know these diseases relate to it. The studies were done against individuals who had the same socioeconomic status, same income, but were not getting SNAP benefits.

In the hearing today, we had someone suggest that all we need to do is do public service announcements, that we will just do education.

I mean, with Ozempic and Wegovy, maybe it is quicker, but these are not the solution. The solution is not to become obese and then take a drug to reduce the obesity. It is not to become obese in the first place, but your point is critical…

That is right. You bring up a good point. The first thing you start with is say that we don't have to change-- let's do a few pilot programs. Let's get some data. Otherwise, it is incredibly difficult to see whether some of these ideas…

Sure. I chair the Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Subcommittee of the Appropriations Committee, and we are in charge of funding the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, the SNAP…

It is direct. Again, even if this were economically neutral--but it is not--one would make the argument that the right thing to do for people is to give them a better, healthier life.

I thank the gentleman from Arizona for yielding me some time today. Mr. Speaker, to those who see the gentleman virtually every week come up here and talk about the economics of the United States and our debt problems and things like that…

One of the experts said, quite accurately, that when you deal with an addiction--and we won't get into that today, but by the way, just so everybody understands, it is now pretty clear from brain chemistry that sugar--and when we say…

There is no question that that is true. The fact is that we can send a strong economic signal through our ability to modify what is available under food programs, not only direct payments but also the fact that, over the past 50 years, we…

It could. Every single addictive issue in front of us involves--whether it is an addiction like opioid addiction, an addiction like sugar addiction, an addiction like gambling, or your cell phones and the fact that our youth now spend 7…

I agree. This is not just about economics. It is using borrowed money to actually cause the need for more borrowed money in the future.

As we commemorate National Police Week, I take a moment to honor the memory of Wicomico County Deputy Sheriff Glenn Hilliard, a heroic Maryland Eastern Shore police officer who was killed in the line of duty while protecting his community…

So, we're not admitting people into the interior who don't have identification?

Hungary has become one of the most successful models as leader for conservative principles and governance in Europe.

I have advocated that we should end our policy of strategic ambiguity in favor of strategic clarity.

I thank the gentleman for yielding to me. Today, I rise, as fellow members of my delegation have, to speak regarding the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge and especially to honor the memory of the hardworking men who lost their…

Thank you very much. I thank the gentleman for yielding to me. Mr. Speaker, this afternoon I am going to talk a little about Bidenomics. It is interesting the President doesn't talking about Bidenomics anymore. He thought about a year ago…

I thank the gentleman from Texas for yielding. What we are watching is a complete foreign policy failure on the part of the Biden administration. And we are watching it on two fronts. We are watching it in Eastern Europe where peace…

I think most people would agree that the southern border disaster is a man-made disaster made by the person in the White House.
