There is nothing that should be partisan about the pursuit of clean air, clean water, clean working conditions.

There is no doubt that there is industry that wants more of a freedom to pollute without having environmental rules imposed against them.

Under the Presidential Administration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, the EPA has taken decisive action to put the health of the people before the profits of polluters.

Millions of Americans are suffering the health effects of legacy pollution, dangerous air quality, and other kinds of toxic contamination.

It is another brutal summer in Washington, but, as we say on Capitol Hill, it is not the heat, it is the stupidity.

But I see this is basically a continuation of the work of January 6. They're basically picking up where the insurrection has left off.

I would ask the Ranking Member, Mr. Raskin, not to spread COVID in this hearing room, not to spread COVID on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives.

The ideological forebears of Mr. Rokita and Mr. Berry and Ms. Stepman, like Robert Bork, were arguing against the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Title VII has been a great American success story and the model for civil rights law and jurisprudence all over the world.

I thank the distinguished gentleman from California for his thoughtful remarks, I urge passage of H.R. 5985, and I yield back the balance of my time.

I urge unanimous adoption of H.R. 6750. I thank the gentleman from North Carolina for his very eloquent remarks, and I yield back the balance of my time.

We urge everyone to support H.R. 6073. I thank the distinguished gentleman from Pennsylvania for his thoughtful remarks. I yield back the balance of my time.

I urge the passage of H.R. 5034. I thank the very distinguished gentlewoman from the Virgin Islands for her very moving remarks, and I yield back the balance of my time.

I urge the passage of H.R. 1687. I thank the gentleman from California for his moving remarks. I yield back the balance of my time.

Democrats are not out there saying that Hunter Biden's trial is a farce. It's a fraud. It's rigged. We're not attacking the justice system.

They're treating you, Dr. Fauci, like a convicted felon.

Dr. Fauci did not fund research through the EcoHealth Alliance grant that caused the COVID-19 pandemic.

The origins of the COVID-19 pandemic remain uncertain.

I want to join my colleague from Florida in apologizing to you that some of our colleagues in the U.S. House of Representatives seem to want to drag your name through the mud.

You have devoted your life to fighting infectious diseases for the American people.

It has not been an objective investigation as to whether or not the virus came from a lab or an animal transmission.

I hope that this Committee will be able to correct all of the propaganda and disinformation today.
