We know when there is adequate, secure childcare that benefits the economy, especially coming out of this COVID crisis.

Mr. Strong, I want to just thank you and your organization for helping out the small businesses and helping with the lending institutions.

Thank you, Mr. Chair.

The Congo and China do not have the environmental and labor standards the United States does.

This is a bill that will, no doubt, make our communities less safe. We all want police reform and we all want change, but until such time as we work together, this legislation is just another messaging bill from my Democrat colleagues.

The CDC still recommends that people delay travel as much as possible.

I urge a ``yes'' vote on this en bloc, and a ``no'' on the underlying bill.

Nuclear power is a huge contributor to our electric grid. By withdrawing areas from uranium and other mineral development, it furthers our reliance on Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Russia--who I assure you, do not have the labor or…

It is more ironic and frustrating that the bipartisan JUSTICE Act was held up by Speaker Pelosi last Congress for purely political reasons.

The solution is the JUSTICE Act that I introduced last Congress and again earlier this month.

Unfortunately, despite our fellow Americans' calls for action, it sounds like partisanship is the path that will be taken once again.

I have a cosponsor sheet with me today and would love if any of my Democratic colleagues would like to come on over or I can come to you to sign this piece of legislation.

The Keystone pipeline was vetted, one of the most vetted projects in America.

We have to retain energy independence so we do not rely on OPEC nations anymore.

These jobs were going to be done by our union friends under project labor agreements and Davis-Bacon prevailing wage.

On his first day in office he made a heartless decision to take away more jobs in the middle of an economic crisis by revoking the Keystone XL pipeline permits just hours later.

We simply cannot afford the shutdowns that President Biden is threatening us with.

President Biden's relief plan shows just how out of touch he is with the hardworking small business owners of America, and it is frustrating.

Speaker Pelosi put politics ahead of our country. For months, she made her partisan wish list items a priority over the millions of Americans who were suffering.

You are just an unbelievable person, and I appreciate everything that you have done.

You are going to be missed as a Member of Congress. You are going to be missed in the Illinois delegation.

She knew that her moderate members and my good colleagues on the other side of the aisle were going to sign that discharge petition which would force that bill to the floor and help small businesses.

Instead of working on legislation that would bring more relief to 30 million small businesses across this great Nation, Nancy Pelosi and democrat leadership have been focused on passing legislation that gives them cheap political talking…

The speaker would rather use small businesses as political pawns rather than get things done.

The Paycheck Protection Program, which has provided a lifeline to small businesses across this Nation during this pandemic has been shut down for 48 days now.
