Virginia Foxx said "This is a solution in search of a problem. We all know that it is almost impossible to fire a Federal employee. In fact, I think the number is less than 1 percent who are fired each year. Maybe the reason we haven't had an updated report is because there hasn't been the need for an updated report. I think, again, this is a totally unnecessary amendment, and I am totally opposed to it. Mr. Chair, I yield back the balance of my time. The CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentlewoman from Michigan (Ms. Tlaib). The amendment was agreed to." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
