I do not like these attacks on the Department of Justice, the FBI, the IRS, as if they are somehow anti-U.S. agencies.

When the President just a couple of days ago tried to delay his Federal documents trial... that seems to me like special treatment, if I have ever heard of it before.

those who would seek to use efforts in the form of amendments that ultimately are pro-Putin should be defeated on the Floor.

I get the sense we do it with a vendetta. Like, I think this was wrong, and you were the one that did it.

I want to thank you and the Ranking Member. I want to thank our witnesses who have endured us for the last couple of hours.

The freeze constricted, as we all know, the job market and destroyed employee morale and employee welfare in many respects.

We owe it to our constituents, to the American public, to keep our commitment to improving government work for the people.

We have got to at some point realize that we cannot allocate the previous amount of resources to a mountain that is growing, crying out for help.

Americans deserve nothing short than top-tier, customer-focused, accessible and efficient services from their government.

It is a sin, it is an abomination, and it is an affront to everything that we hold moral and right in this country.

We all are ticked off at this notion of ongoing price gouging, the lack of transparency, and the fact that no one seems to regulate the PBMs.

I do not like getting angry like this, but when you hear something that is hurting people in this way, it cries out for solutions.

We all are ticked off of at this notion of ongoing price gouging, the lack of transparency.

I think it is extremely important that we have a chance to talk and to follow up on a number of things that concern Members of this Committee with respect to the United States Postal Service.
