16.4 million Americans have secured health insurance through the Affordable Care marketplaces.

not expanding Medicaid or cuts to Medicaid are really going to starve the healthcare systems in rural areas, and impact red States in a major way.

I hear my GOP colleagues criticize the President's budget, but they don't have one.

I am very proud of the historic achievements included in the Inflation Reduction Act.

The devotion, sacrifice, and hard work of collegiate athletes helps make college sports one of the most popular and lucrative brands of sports entertainment in the country.

The burden on the healthcare system when States don't expand Medicaid or when the Federal Government ACA subsidies are cut is severe.

Now, the Biden administration lays all this out, but I don't know what the other side is doing because they have no budget.

The Biden budget also proposes to finally ensure that all low-income individuals have access to the benefits and protections of Medicaid, regardless of the political decisions made by the Governors and legislatures.

Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, we finally allowed Medicare to negotiate prescription drug prices.

Our budget, the President's budget, invests in wellness care.

These athletes deserve a system that puts players' welfare first, not the NCAA's bottom line.

I don't really think you should be criticizing something without an alternative.

Big Tech remains my biggest fear as a parent, and they need to be held accountable for their actions.

The First Amendment is a key part of what makes America exceptional and distinguishes us from so many other countries around the world, especially our foreign adversaries.

Now, while existing research suggests that large platforms like Facebook, Instagram, YouTube do not disfavor or target conservatives for removal here, you know, they, in fact, favor--go out of their way to favor conservatives for fear of…

These platforms are obviously far too powerful. They are making the American people, all of us, dogmatic and intolerant.

Every day like that is a day that further endangers our young people, our democracy, and our society as a whole.

More Americans have health coverage today than ever before, thanks to the Affordable Care Act and the expansion subsidies included in the American Rescue Plan and the Inflation Reduction Act.

President Joe Biden and his administration are on a dangerous authoritarian mission to institutionalize censorship of American voices.

Now, also, if we were to treat these tech platforms as state actors and require that they keep up all constitutionally protected speech, the internet would be even worse, particularly for teenagers, for--for young children.

So in fact we saw that last week when committee members flagged and condemned TikTok content that appeared to threaten violence to our Members.

What I am proposing is rather simple. If the White House is going to demand that Facebook censor accurate information about COVID vaccine side effects, which it did do, then it would need to immediately send an email to be posted on a…

It's the Republicans. In fact, the Republican Party is responsible for some of the most egregious First Amendment violations.

In fact, the First Amendment protects private-sector tech companies in their right to determine what to leave up and what to take down on their platform.

The censorship the First Amendment prohibits is government attempting to restrict or compel private actors to speak in a particular way.
