I thank the gentleman from Tennessee for his remarks. I certainly appreciate him being here this evening, again, shedding light on these massive, massive terrible problems that this open border has created. It is much more than monetary…

This wide-open border is a national security threat. It is much more than a monetary problem that has been placed upon the taxpayers across the United States. Somewhere in the neighborhood of $150 billion to $500 billion a year is being…

I thank the gentleman for his comments. Mr. Speaker, you can see there is a long list of problems, and we have many speakers here who want to speak to those problems this evening. It is critically important for the American people to hear…

I thank the gentleman from Arkansas for his remarks. I think that this reflects very clearly on the losses that our country is suffering. It is much, much more than monetary consideration. We are losing lives every single day. We also have…

I thank the gentleman from North Carolina for participating tonight and helping us to shed some light on all the problems that have been caused by this wide-open border that has been created by the Biden-Harris administration. I yield next…

The fish bypass channel is a complete separate structure that is not connected to the irrigation facilities that have been in place for over 100 years. This new facility was just constructed within the last 10 years, and the Army Corps of…

My amendment No. 53 to the Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2025, would prohibit funds from being used to transfer or delegate control or maintenance responsibility of the Lower Yellowstone fish bypass…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds made…

I demand a recorded vote. The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Montana will be postponed. Amendment No. 54 Offered by Mr. Roy The Acting CHAIR. It is now…

Unfortunately, much like the complete disregard for the time limit on the first vote of the day that takes place in this Chamber every single day, it is because there are no consequences. There is no downside. There is no hammer. That is…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: In subtitle A of title VII, add at the end the following: SEC. 714. PROHIBITION ON COVERAGE OF CERTAIN…

The pressures of war are extreme, and if you are so troubled during peacetime that you don't know if you are a man or a woman, then I can't imagine what the pressures of war would do to you. There were about 160 transgender surgeries that…

I am ready to close, as well. Mr. Chairman, may I inquire as to how much time I have remaining. The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Montana has 1\1/2\ minutes remaining.

President Joe Biden has tried to turn our United States military into a dangerous leftwing social experiment. At the Malmstrom Air Force Base in my district there has been an inappropriate drag show and explicit library books on display…

This is not rhetoric. These are simply the facts. Again, a report commissioned by General Mattis found that servicemembers with claims of gender dysphoria are eight times more likely to attempt suicide than other servicemembers. Mr. Chair…

Again, it is very simple. First of all, the taxpayers should not be bound by paying the expenses that are associated with these transgender surgeries for the military. The next thing is, and this is the larger question: Should these people…

President Biden and his Administration must provide real solutions for our border, and help preserve the safety and beauty of our nation and its parks.

I wish that this Administration was as concerned about caring for our veterans as they are for caring and spending the money and the investment on the illegal aliens.

I hope the fact we are having yet another hearing on this issue of vital importance will serve as a much-needed wake-up call.

The Biden administration's open border policies are wreaking havoc across the entire nation.

I hope that this hearing will force this Administration to protect our nation and work with our tribes.

The continuing cycle of addiction, crime, and loss of life in Indian Country must be halted.
