My concern is that we do have, you know, just because somebody creates a little device and it looks just like a block, there is a lot of engineering that could have gone into that because it is critical whether it is an airline part or…

The right to repair is alluring in its simplicity. In theory, it seems obvious that if you buy something, you own it, and you should have the freedom to do what you want with it.

I think there is maybe a middle ground here because I do not like to look at this as a zero sum game; it is either all or nothing.

Rural people, such as myself and a number of the Members here, are already underserved just because everything is far away.

Last week, the Consumer Price Index hit another historic level of 9.1 percent, the highest 12-month gain since 1981.

I cannot imagine trying to explain what you have to explain for this administration.

We see the small business at a huge disadvantage.

I would just wish he would please, to our small business community which provides 94 percent of the jobs in our community, stop playing the blame game.

I thank Mr. Hern of Oklahoma and the Republican Study Committee's Budget Task Force for their diligent work in putting together this year's Republican Study Committee budget. Thank God we have a budget. This important document lays out a…

I am honored to partner with the gentlewoman from Pennsylvania (Ms. Houlahan) to introduce the bipartisan Women-Owned Small Business Program Transparency Act. In 2014 and 2019, the Government Accountability Office found that the Women…
