One of the fundamental issues for a trial, any trial, civil or criminal, is the right to confront your accuser.
There's the right to protect them to remain anonymous, and there's also the point to protect them from retaliation.
Identifying people quickly and easily has so many positive law enforcement and safety applications that I think it would be irresponsible to disregard this technology completely.
Our job is to get it right. Our job is to ensure that we have responsible regulation that protects the privacy of all Americans.
I would like to point out very quickly that the only Republican witnesses allowed in the Intelligence Committee hearings were on the Democrats' preapproved list. Madam Speaker, I yield 1\1/2\ minutes to the gentleman from South Carolina…
I appreciate the detail. Madam Speaker, I yield 1\1/2\ minutes to the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Johnson).
I would just point out that, to believe everything that was just said, you have to also believe that President Zelensky is a pathological liar. I yield 1\1/2\ minutes to the gentleman from South Carolina (Mr. Duncan).
This was never about facts or fairness. So here we are, where we were always going to be, on a purely partisan impeachment that is destined to fail in the Senate.
There was no pressure. Both President Zelensky and President Trump said that there was no pressure, no victim.
I think that argument would have a lot more merit on the abuse of power charge if we don't take a look back and look at the whole destination and how we got here.
This is like everything else in the sham impeachment, purposely misleading and not based on the facts.
There's been suggestions that companies with large data repositories be forced to share that data with smaller competitors, especially since data is nonrivalrous.
I have a 12-year-old daughter; I have a 9-year-old son. There are schools across the country that are removing doors on bathroom stalls and banning hoodies. Teen vaping and youth vaping is a real issue. This bill is a small step forward to…
And just be clear, there was exactly one Democrat in the room when this started.
I want to participate in this hearing, but I also feel the need to be in the SCIF.
I have a real easy one. The oil industry is the second-largest industry in my state. My constituents expect me to be here.
I can't think of an issue where accountability matters more than when we are collecting DNA evidence to get convictions of violent sexual offenders and to give some semblance of justice. I am going to support the bill. I hope we get it…
We also have to change insurance culture and hiring culture and allowing those things to happen.
What we really need--if we're serious about this, and I think if you're 19 and have a nonviolent felony on your record, the world we live in now compared to two generations ago is so different.
And I think that's one of the things with Ban the Box. We need to understand as Members of Congress is that still only gets you past the first stage.
