I hate to be the wakeup call to this administration, and maybe even to some folks in this room, but not everyone is spending their Thanksgiving in the millionaire and billionaire playground of Nantucket, like many people are.

Since Joe Biden took office, over 1.6 million illegals have been apprehended at our southern border. In fact, over 164,000 illegal immigrants were apprehended at the southern border just in October alone, marking the worst October in the…

This time last year, America was energy independent. Now our Nation is facing a full-blown energy crisis, leaving the American people to ask, ``What changed?'' Well, the answer is simple. Unlike the Trump administration, the Biden…

The Democrats marched forward with their first partisan spending spree, the American Rescue Plan, a $1.9 trillion package.

The COVID shutdowns were devastating to communities and the American economy.

What I am hearing from the small businesses in Minnesota's eighth district, northeastern Minnesota, they can't get their supplies, they can't get what the consumer needs.

It is very important that we look at this issue and find ways to, you know, secure our supply chains.

I am worried about ESOPs and how they might fare under this administration's tax plan, specifically under the proposed capital gains tax increase.

Thank you very much, Mr. Dane, for appearing here.

There is a lot of talk about adding endangered species to the list of endangered wildlife, et cetera.

The EPA has misinterpreted the RFS. Their interpretation is contrary to all other public and private timber management organizations.

So let's be clear, so-called climate solutions are impossible without logging and forest management.

Our forests sequester 15 percent of American's carbon each year.

I think we have to really take a healthy look at that and what we need to do to really, I guess, stop the weaponization of the courts and allow your industry to do what you do well: manage forests, bring great jobs.

The vote closed prior to be being able to vote. Had I been present, I would have voted ``nay'' on rollcall No. 271. MEMBERS RECORDED PURSUANT TO HOUSE RESOLUTION 8, 117TH CONGRESS Cardenas (Gomez) Carter (TX) (Calvert) DeSaulnier (Matsui)…

The local governments in big cities across this nation abandoned small businesses. It is plain and simple.

I must reiterate the disastrous effects of the defund the police movement.

In the summer of 2020 civil unrest plagued cities across this nation and our small businesses paid the price.

That is why I am offering this amendment.

Cities that once were the biggest tourist attractions in the United States are now desolate or consumed with crime.

Minneapolis city council has destroyed it.

That is the heavy hand of the government that I will fight against tooth and nail.

I just want to publicly thank our lending institutions that helped so many businesses stay afloat.

I have really, really strong concerns about the leadership at the SBA under Administrator Guzman.
