Virginia Foxx

I am prepared to close if the gentleman from Virginia is prepared to close. I reserve the balance of my time.

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 Arizona will be postponed. {time} 1715 Amendment No. 7 Offered by Mr. Davidson The Acting…

For purposes of debate only, I yield the customary 30 minutes to the gentleman from Virginia (Mr. Scott), the ranking member of the Committee on Education and the Workforce, pending which I yield myself such time as I may consume. General…

Fire them if they don't come back to work.

I have had enough with the Biden Department of Education's utterly dishonest accounting tricks. The Department of Education's 2022 financial statement doesn't have a leg to stand on. KPMG, an independent auditor, stated that there were…

It is a little ironic that our side of the aisle is being accused of being anticapitalist and anti-free market. I would like to clarify for the record the content of the Trump Department of Labor rule on retirement plan ESG investing…

I urge my colleagues to support H.J. Res. 30, to stop the Biden administration from decimating the retirement savings of millions of Americans. ESG funds will not give retirees the secure future they need. According to a former BlackRock…

Absolutely. That--as Ranking Member Scott has said, that has been the tradition, and I will fulfill that again.

Everything we do will focus on holding the Federal Government bureaucrats accountable for how they spend taxpayers' hard-earned money.

We want to hear from the people being affected by the policies that are passed by the Congress of the United States.

The work of the Committee on Education and Workforce is broad. From education and employment to healthcare and retirement, our work affects every aspect of people's lives.

The pandemic gave us a window into just how broken our entire education system is.

As the people's Representatives, we should all be willing to guard the authority granted to us by the Constitution.

There is an article that came out February 10th that says that a student that takes at least one dual credit course in high school is three times as likely to graduate from college as students who do not take college credits courses in…

This speech is bittersweet. I stand to commend a member of my committee staff, Mandy Schaumburg, on her 20 years of public service. I thank Mandy for her years of service to this committee and this country and for being someone that I…

Proposed Republican reforms, including the Parents Bill of Rights, are nothing more than political posturing.

I am hopeful that this is a topic Republicans and Democrats can work on together, as I know we all want what is best for students.

I will champion the Parents Bill of Rights Act.

We recognize that a Baccalaureate degree is not the appropriate or necessary path for everyone.

We have a responsibility to protect the interest of taxpayers and ensure that students are receiving a high-quality education.

Republicans will not stand by while the Biden administration attempts to enact its retroactive free college agenda.

Chairwoman Foxx got it right, our education system is in fact in crisis.

The Biden administration is turning our student loan system on its head instead of addressing problems like the rising cost of college and poor student outcomes.

It is time for the education complex to understand that children belong to their parents, not the state.

I believe these are necessary to fix a broken long system.
