In closing, it is very clear that the only thing that D.C. continues to do successfully is spend American taxpayer funding. We did not do what was necessary to mitigate these risks. There was always this 2 weeks to slow the curve. I wish…

I appreciate the gentlewoman actually stepping up. She asked two key questions that I really liked. First off, what would it eliminate was one of the questions. Well, what it would eliminate is the wasteful and fraudulent spending that has…

My amendment is pretty simple. This would cut back on the spending for the office of the NIH Director by more than $160 million to return us back to the fiscal year 2019 funding level. This amendment ensures appropriate accountability for…

I appreciate the gentlewoman for her acknowledgment that we have increased spending by $8.4 billion, of which some of that funding led to additional trillions of dollars in spending and thousands of lives lost, as we funded things like the…

I am profoundly saddened to stand before you today to report that 18 people lost their lives, and 13 people injured in last night's attack.

I am honored to be here today to support Representative Boebert's request for this to be referred to the Committee on Homeland Security with regard to the dereliction of duty under this administration and this President's policies. As a…

Today I stand before you to emphasize the critical need for the Department of Defense's involvement in fentanyl research. My amendment would include the Department of Defense in the list of eligible agencies that qualify for the expedited…

Today, I rise to recognize and remember Patricia Sutherlin McRee. Patricia Sutherlin McRee, a 30-year resident of Oviedo, and a constituent of mine, passed from us earlier this week. Patricia moved to the Space Coast in 1960 to teach at…

I thank the gentleman for yielding those 2 minutes. Mr. Speaker, I want to approach a couple of things here. We keep talking about the idea that our presence and these 900 people in Somalia are somehow leading to a stabilization effort…

The 2001 and 2002 Authorizations for Use of Military Force licensed the executive branch to conduct broad military operations, and Congress has disregarded its constitutional oversight powers as a result. Repealing these outdated AUMFs…

I come to the floor today to honor Stewart McNally, a United States Army veteran who sadly passed away last summer. Before he began his honorable service in the United States Army in the late 1960s, Stewart was the captain of the Arthur…

I come to the floor today to talk about a very special constituent from Florida's Seventh Congressional District. Eugene Henleben was born in St. Louis 100 years ago on February 7. He served our great Nation on a PT boat during the Second…

Today, I want to introduce myself not just to the great people of Florida's Seventh District but to the rest of America. While I may not be in your district and your exact Representative, if you believe in our constitutionality, if you…

I had prepared a speech today to talk about my support for H.R. 22 and the protection of our Strategic Petroleum Reserves. But after hearing my colleagues on the left, it is very simple. They don't care about unleashing American energy, us…

I come to the floor today to talk about the economic resource warfare that the CCP has launched against the United States. As a former businessowner, I can tell you the CCP continues to steal hundreds of billions of dollars in intellectual…

The stimulus package hasn't helped very much at all.
