I am in agreement and overall sympathetic with the point Mr. Bishop raised about the challenges with especially America's legacy of involvement in a region that has all too often not augered for the benefit of folks in those countries.

It's very important that we don't have that sense of failure to recognize how smaller companies... can be vital to that economy.

I think it is time for the Government to invest in a big way.

I'm fully supportive of a green future, but also know that we need to build a bridge to get there.

There has been an active effort to whitewash and rewrite the shameful events of that day to avoid accountability and turn away from difficult truths. If we avoid confronting what happened here just a few short months ago, we can be sure…

The imperative to have a public, objective, fact-based investigation of the Capitol attack is not a partisan issue. And it should never be treated as such.

While the need for comprehensive immigration reform, including more effective border security, is clear, it is also important that we understand why so many individuals and families continue to make the perilous journey to our Southern…

We were at the border. We saw how many unaccompanied minors are there. Those children don't want to be there.

This crisis exemplifies the problems with our current system.

I look forward to continuing to make sure that we are improving not only our border security, but our immigration process, and making sure that we recognize that our region is more secure, our neighborhood is more secure when our partners…

I received a text the evening of the January 6 from somebody who said--called me a traitor for not voting to decertify or object to the electoral college process.

I think this is well past time for us to be addressing these concerns.

We are really facing a panoply of problems, right? We have everything from nation-states to criminal enterprises.

I voted for impeachment and was 1 of only 10 Republicans to do so and have unequivocally condemned the actions of January 6.

The question is, why is that so persuasive? Why are so many folks feeling disaffected and becoming entranced by some of these wilder theories?

We need to be reevaluating or, as Mr. Jenkins said, fundamentally rethink some of these dynamics.

I am extremely excited to be sitting on this committee. I am excited for the opportunity to work in a bipartisan fashion to address the security concerns that are confronting our Nation, especially those of a domestic nature.

The way in which we are engaging--the delta between how we treat international terrorism and, sort-of, the statutory grounding to prosecute versus domestic, I think, is a really salient issue.

I have colleagues who are now traveling with armed escorts, out of the fear for their safety. Many of us are altering our routines, working to get body armor, which is a reimbursable purchase that we can make. It's sad that we have to get…

Our expectation is that someone may try to kill us.

Many of us are altering our routines, working to get body armor, which is a reimbursable purchase that we can make. It's sad that we have to get to that point. But our expectation is that someone may try to kill us.

That is something I'm strongly considering. Again, I've had colleagues who are objecting and raising concerns on the timing, raising concerns on the process, raising concerns on the reception. I have not heard anybody raising concerns on…
