It is common for the zealot to lose the capacity for irony. Hence, Chairman Thompson says that laws prohibit doing politics on the clock: ``It is important that taxpayer dollars don't support political activity.'' Ms. Cheney waves the…

I certainly don't think we should be firing missiles at drones in Las Vegas.

Why are we content to let Mexican cartels operate drones to cross the United States border?

Let me just ask, do you think anyone has ever discriminated against you because you are bald?

To the point just made by Mr. Jordan, it does strike me that what is being described, by the majority leader or by the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, is that some courts in the hundreds of Federal courts that we have--I am not even…

It is not a question of avoidance. It is a question of priority. Here is a priority. In 2020, homicides across America increased 30 percent, from 16,500, roughly, to 21,500, an additional 5,000 homicides. And even if you want to view it…

To Mr. Jordan's point, we are beset with problems. Two of the most significant are that the Producer Price Index is at 10 percent. We face a cost environment that is unsustainable, and that affects every American's livelihood every time…

The distinguished chairman of the committee offered to correct me by saying that the bill only prohibits forced arbitration, said that was a correction, as if I misspoke as to facts. Let me read from the language of the bill…

I thank the gentleman from Florida, and as I suggested earlier, if the bill were a matter only of big businesses, it would be a very different bill, but just as there is no limitation to forced arbitration agreements in the language of the…

We still haven't heard an explanation for why this legislation deems it appropriate to eliminate arbitration for parties of all sizes. We keep hearing about the little guy versus the massive corporation. Even in that circumstance, of…

The distinguished gentleman from Georgia suggests that this bill is about whether or not we are preserving the right to jury trial in the Constitution. But I submit, that is not really what is at stake. The question is whether you resolve…

On the other side of the aisle, we hear repeated references to defending the Constitution and the American way. I would remind the Chamber that our economy, the American economy, is built on contracts; which contracts, under the rule of…

I thank the gentleman from California for his remarks. It causes me to remark, as the gentleman from Tennessee said a moment ago, that it is Democrats who look out for the interests of the little guy and look out for the interests of the…

It is interesting how we end up prioritizing things here in Congress.

I think the Nation needs for those persons' identities to be disclosed.

It continues to elude me why Members of the Majority on this committee and DHS on the Biden administration is pleased or satisfied to see the U.S. Government become the logistics arm for the Mexican cartels.

Even if, you know, not all 2 million are being released into the United States rootless and so forth, the suffering... is happening every day.

the suffering that Mr. Correa correctly described from everything I hear, is, you know, 80 percent of females being raped, young girls being raped.

I am pleased with this amendment by the gentleman from Colorado. It has my full support in the Judiciary Committee. I also appreciate the chairman's non-opposition to the amendment. I believe it makes the bill better, and it makes the bill…

I thank the gentleman for yielding. In the lengthy oration of the 1 minute from the majority leader, I agreed with one word, that this is a radical bill. And the majority leader's argument is a ``throwing the baby out with the bathwater''…

I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. I have no hesitancy to take on the distinguished gentleman from Maryland on the points that he has made. I would say first of all this: I hope that he will continue to read those text messages because…

I thank the gentleman for yielding, and I thank Representative Butterfield for those fine comments. I agree with him 100 percent. That bill that Congress passed back in 1956 said this, even as it recognized the Lumbee: ``Nothing in this…

Hoke County Sheriff Dr. Hubert Peterkin died unexpectedly last Friday during surgery and from a previous unannounced affliction of cancer. For the people of Hoke County, whom Sheriff Peterkin served in that capacity for 19 years, it has…

I acknowledge that there is a massive scope of humanitarian disaster created by the President's mishandling of the evacuation.

Today, I rise to honor retired Lieutenant Colonel Allen Lamb of Lumberton, North Carolina, and to extend him best wishes for a very happy 90th birthday. Lieutenant Colonel Lamb, a decorated fighter pilot, led the legendary Wild Weasels…
