I wish I lived in the fairy land of President Biden's budget.

You all realize you have to balance the budget because you can't print money, but somehow the President believes we don't have to balance the Federal budget.

The States pick up the slack, the local communities. That is where education decisions should be made.

You are doubling down on failure.

The time for $1,000,000,000,000 deficits has to draw to a close.

I would suggest that we should consider having the States pay their 'fair share' of the expansion.

We established the Federal Department of Education. And on a national level, we are worse off than we were 42 years ago.

Shame on us if we have a program that $3,600,000,000 funding, and only one-third of the people are actually getting skills training.

We spend our time on Title IX new policies instead of making sure we have enough people in our workforce.

So that you can actually do things if you balance the budget, you can actually accomplish a lot of these things.

I was one of the 161 who voted to eliminate it.

The United States has a debt problem. Biden's budget won't solve it.

The President's budget never balances in the future. Is that right? I mean never, ever, ever, ever, ever.

I will tell you that that omnibus bill, the increased spending, led to increased inflation, which Americans are tired of.

I certainly hope so. And again, I disagree with you.

I would suggest, Mr. Secretary, you didn't base it on science. You based it on woke politics.

Maybe what we should do is ask the States to pay their fair share.

We never want to create a situation whereby China or any other country can envision a successful first strike.

AUKUS is supremely important. We are going to share the crown jewel of America's military technology.

if we are ambiguous, that might encourage an attack because Xi Jinping has been clear from day one that he is going to take Taiwan peacefully, hopefully, but by force if necessary.

It is indicative of China's tone deaf behavior that, even on the eve of his visit, they would have this balloon travel across the United States.

We need an offensive capability, and we need a defensive capability.

The chairman of the committee got it right, this is historic. This bill is overdue, bipartisan, and bicameral, as it should be. Today, I rise in support of H.R. 8454, the Medical Marijuana and Cannabidiol Research Expansion Act…

I thank Ranking Member Granger for yielding. Mr. Chair, I rise in opposition to H.R. 8294, which includes the FY23 Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies appropriations bill. First, I thank Chair…

They mention that, for instance, opioid overprescribing occurs four times as much when a nurse practitioner is involved. Obviously, in a workers' comp case where injury may be determined, this could be significant. This is something we…
