I am just amazed. I listened to the gentleman from Georgia who just spoke, and he said that in his district all of the focus is on health care and health care repeal. Well, I don't know, when I go home all I hear in my district is jobs and the economy. People are concerned about the economy. They want us to create jobs, they want us to focus mostly on that issue, not on repeal of health care. The other problem I have with the gentleman from Georgia's comments is he seems to think that because the House passed this repeal yesterday that the health reform is repealed. Well, let me tell everyone it's not, and this is just a ruse. This bill, this health reform wasn't repealed. The Senate isn't even going to take it up. The President has said that he would never sign a repeal bill. So the Republicans are just wasting their time, rather than focusing on what we should be focusing on, the jobs and the economy. They keep talking about this false repeal that is never going to happen.

If they cannot be operated in compliance with federal law and the Constitution, GEO Group, CoreCivic, and any other private contractors should not continue to profit from taxpayer dollars, and the detention centers must be closed.
We simply cannot allow this to continue. It is long past time for Congress to step in and pass legislation that protects our kids and teens and reins in Big Tech.
The bipartisan KIDS Act does just that. It is comprehensive legislation that addresses a problem everyone in Congress cares deeply about – keeping kids and teens safe online.
I’m glad I was able to secure the federal funding necessary to support this project, which will make these Jersey Shore communities more resilient in the years to come.
