Anti-Semitism has reared its ugly head on our very shores. It should be extinguished entirely. Over the past few weeks, we have seen anti-Semitic demonstrations take place across the country. Turn on the television, open a newspaper, or go…
I am a firm believer that no Committee speaks to the issues impacting everyday working Americans quite like the Committee on Education and the Workforce.
This week marks the ninth annual National Apprenticeship Week, a time when we can give our Nation's workforce development programs their annual physical. Right now, there are more than 6 million Americans who are unemployed and more than 9…
We do not need this concoction of ``social cost of carbon'' visited upon us in this country that will cost us lots and lots of money. Mr. Chairman, I urge my colleagues to vote in favor of this, and I reserve the balance of my time.
Again, we need to stop the Biden administration from implementing its revisions to OMB Circular A-4. We don't need to water down the regulatory guardrails currently in place and dramatically overstate the benefits and underrepresent the…
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…
Medical education based on competency and merit is necessary to lead the world in healthcare and medical innovation. Americans sign up for a healthcare system free of racial discrimination. Medical schools must instill this fundamental…
I appreciate the opportunity to offer this amendment. I believe, again, that it is good for us to highlight this organization and the fact that we do not need people from the State Department attending its meetings. Mr. Chair, I yield back…

We have a terrific debt on our hands in this country. We don't need to be spending any money that is not absolutely necessary to spend. Curbing attendance at meetings such as the Clinton Global Initiative is a good way for us to chip away…
I see that my colleague has not refuted any of the things that I have said about the Clinton Global Initiative. Why in the world, again, would we ask American taxpayers to pay for people from the State Department to attend these…
May I inquire as to how much time is remaining. The Acting CHAIR. The gentlewoman from North Carolina has 1\1/2\ minutes remaining.

For far too long, college admissions have pitted students against students based on race. This is undoubtedly a great stain on our postsecondary education system.
I thank my colleague for yielding. Mr. Speaker, the Biden Department of Education shares a distinct and familiar trait with every government agency in Washington right now: It has a habit of making crackpot decisions. One such decision…
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Bowman Middle School in Mitchell County to view the school's International Space Station, ISS, contact project. Thanks to the diligent work of Dan Hopson, a STEM teacher at the school who has a…
This is not just another bad decision, bad point of view on President Biden's part.
I believe in the work that you and your staff do to marshal our government's resources to keep dangerous drugs, like fentanyl and xylene, off of our streets.
it is very clear to me and most Americans that this President's open border policies are contributing to the deaths of thousands of American citizens and lining the pockets of drug cartels and illicit Chinese drugs manufacturers. This is a…
Julie Su has now exceeded the previous record for the longest duration between a Presidential Cabinet nomination and a confirmation--when the same party controls the White House and the Senate--since 1887. It is no surprise that Axios even…
