Virginia Foxx

Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman and members. Thanks for hosting this member day and giving members the opportunity to speak before the committee.

I withdraw my demand. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Bentz). The demand is withdrawn.

Well, we have seen throughout the time of the Biden-Harris administration that it overstepped its bounds all of the time.

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Add at the end the following: SEC. 5. NO FORCE OR EFFECT TO TREATY PRIOR TO RATIFICATION. Notwithstanding…

I am, frankly, surprised at my colleague for opposing an amendment that does nothing more than strengthen this piece of legislation. This amendment ensures that we do not violate our national sovereignty. I think it is the right thing to…

I reiterate what I said a few minutes ago. I respect my colleague from New York (Mr. Meeks), but what harm does it do to put belts and suspenders on a bill? The gentleman says it is not needed. It takes up a few words more. It is not going…

May I inquire as to how much time is remaining. The Acting CHAIR. The gentlewoman from North Carolina has 1\1/2\ minutes remaining.

It is not we who are misleading the American people or scaring the American people. Just read the regulation, which says that schools are not allowed to prevent a person from participating in an education program or activity consistent…

We need to stop adding to the regulatory burden that threatens to choke off innovation and economic growth in this country.

I think that we have an EPA that is basically out of control and imposing horrible regulations and costs on the American people.

This bipartisan bill will strengthen Congress' ability to stop Federal regulators from loading up the private sector and state and local governments with costly new unfunded mandates.

The Biden-era EPA has managed to add $1.3 trillion in cost on Americans.

the EEOC is detached from reality. Their harassment guidance from April 29 is nothing more than a homage to leftist activists who want Americans to conform to their warped political ideology.

this is about freedom. This is all about freedom in our country.

UCLA has been a hotbed of pervasive antisemitism.

We are using every available tool to protect the safety and civil rights of students.

The Chancellor at our hearing refused to even answer questions about whether students had been suspended, or faculty disciplined.

The events that we have witnessed on certain campuses in California and across the United States could not be more antithetical to the values of our State and our country.

We have seen institutions of higher learning gripped by one of the world's most ancient and retrograde prejudices.

under Chairman McFerran's leadership, the Board has issued numerous decisions that tip the scales in favor of unions over the rights of employees and employers

How does OPM's new rule, which reduces civil service accountability, align with OPM's stated values, including service and excellence?

You know, I hate that 'T' word. You train dogs and you educate people.

All employers expect employees to perform well and provide good service, and employees should be held accountable for their performance.

Employers across all industries are looking for qualified workers to fill in-demand jobs. Job creators are consistently finding that skills-based credentials can successfully, oftentimes more effectively, prepare workers for success on the…

the actions of the administration have been in all cases, to tip the scales in favor of the unions, and it is supposed to be neutral.
