Let me tell you about a sharp, young patriot from my district. She worked hard, earned straight A's, and was accepted into law school to join the JAG Corps. She, however, was denied entry into the military because she had bunions on her…

Today I rise in opposition to H.R. 7. It is a deeply flawed bill that offers false promises while empowering lawyers and bureaucracy, not empowering women. In fact, I agree with my colleague from Wyoming who said a minute ago it should not…

I missed the vote on Roll Call No. 119. Had I been present, I would have voted ``Yea''. ____________________

Today I raise my objection to H.R. 1, the so-called For the People Act. This act should really be called the Fund the Politicians Act. It is a Federal takeover of our election system. It opens up our precious election system to fraud, and…

I appreciate the gentlewoman's leadership in bringing this subject up here to the floor, to the American people, and to our colleagues. It is deeply disturbing to see what is happening across this country, as life is no longer valued and…

I thank the gentleman. To the gentleman's point, a reminder that in 2006, 64 Democrats in the House joined the Republicans to pass the Secure Fence Act to build 700 miles of fencing along the border, including Barack Obama, Hillary…

I thank the gentleman; he makes a great point about the safety of the individuals who are coming here. Because we have this open border, it is incentivizing people to make this very dangerous trek. Doctors Without Borders has reported that…

I appreciate the gentlewoman's comments tonight. It is a serious matter before us right now as a nation. That is why we are having this conversation tonight. Madam Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from California (Mr. LaMalfa), and I…

That is so powerful. I thank the gentleman for sharing Christopher's story. I can't imagine how helpless that made him feel to stand at his casket, at his funeral, and to realize that we here in Congress have passed a lot of bills dealing…

I love the analogy that the gentleman just shared about the Clemson game and going into a football game and how you have a ticket and there is a fence and you go through a point of entry and how the system works that way. It is common…
