I thank my colleague, the Representative from the Northern Mariana Islands. We have worked on this a long time, and it is worthy of the time spent. Let me close with some heartbreaking statistics to remind my colleagues of why we have done…
I thank the gentleman from Pennsylvania for taking this opportunity tonight to remind us that on January 26, inexplicably, President Biden announced an indefinite ban on pending LNG export projects. I wish it were indefinite, but I believe…
I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. Madam Speaker, I strongly support H.J. Res. 98 to overturn the Biden administration's joint employer rule which would directly harm employees across this Nation--employees who can become and do become…
I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of H. Res. 927. Last week, Americans watched in bewilderment as the presidents of Harvard, MIT, and Penn were unable to say if calls for a genocide of Jews violated…
This goes on and on, and it is frustrating because it is again clear evidence that the union wants a thumb on the scale because they cannot accomplish it themselves.
I want to keep my record of not being bombastic, but this does frustrate me.
Like all sectors of the economy, dealing with Bidenomics, franchise businesses are navigating economic headwinds such as high inflation, labor shortages, and supply chain disruptions.

It is not about workers, it is about business as we heard from Congressman Wilson.
That is un-American. This, despite more recent polls, showing the Michigan voters opposed repealing employee free choice in Michigan.
Thankfully, seldom do I say that about the courts, but thankfully that rule was invalidated by the court.
Amazing. The impact that that could be primarily for political purposes, and hurting the people allegedly that the administration says they want to help.
During the 114th Congress, as I had the privilege to chair this Subcommittee, and along with over 200 of our fellow House members, I introduced the Protecting Workplace Advancement and Opportunity Act, which would have prevented the Obama…
The family was dealing with the emotional loss of a brother and a husband, and the last thing I am sure that a wife was considering was picking up the phone to call OSHA hotline to report the death of her spouse.
This would go away if the proposed rule were changed, and I think that is something where they would not be able to deliver services on the ground and in the field, and I think that could definitely hurt the individuals in those states.
I think the best thing we could do is allow for demonstration authority to let Governors working with their local officials, come forward to Congress, to the administration and say this is what we would like to try.
