Not only does building back better mean ensuring a strong focus on equity and justice, it also means building back smarter.

I also think it is crucial that we keep equity at the forefront of this conversation.

Since its inception, the New York Green Bank has used $1.2 billion of public funds to stimulate over 3.4 billion in total investment in clean energy and energy-efficiency projects across New York State.

I think that the Clean Energy Sustainability Accelerator included in the CLEAN Future Act is a perfect example of how the Federal Government can help address this need.

Thank you to our witnesses for your testimony.

I am proud to say that New York City is home to the first local green bank in the United States.

It is time we spend less money on border walls and more money on firewalls to protect our networks.

I am eager and elated to turn the page on the cruel, inhumane, and morally bankrupt policies of the Trump administration.

We must rethink our approach to Federal network security, move away from legacy technologies whose security benefits diminished.

For years, I have fought for TPS designations for countries such as these, and I continue to believe these protections remain essential.

I am also proud to be co-leading the U.S. Citizenship Act, President Biden's plan to reform our immigration system.

We certainly must hold the perpetrators of these attacks responsible, but we also must bolster our defenses

As a Nation, we cannot let this happen again.

That was a disgrace. We need to really unpack what happened with Airbridge and make sure it never happens again.

Fortunately, President Biden has made it clear that going forward, we will let science, not politics, guide our response.

For decades to come, we will look back at the previous administration's handling of this crisis as a textbook case study of how not to handle a pandemic.

I just want to take the opportunity to thank you for doing the right thing during your tenure at CISA and refuting Donald Trump's lies and disinformation about the 2020 election.

I think this is something that we should be seriously looking into.

It is time for Congress to rise up, meet its obligations, and meet the magnitude of this moment.

I thank our Ranking Member McKinley for holding this very important hearing, very timely, on Federal climate leadership.

During the public health and economic crisis, we must ensure that consumers are not taken advantage of by malicious actors--not only taken advantage of, but severely harmed.

Until we put to rest the lies about the election, the conspiracy theories like QAnon, and the racist ideologies that drive so many toward hate we will not be safe.

We cannot parse words. This was an act of domestic terrorism, an attack on our citadel of democracy.

Today, I rise to support H. Res. 24, the Article of Impeachment against Donald Trump for high crimes and misdemeanors for a second time. Let us be very clear, what took place on January 6, 2021, was an act of domestic terrorism by…

Mr. Perez, you have to be better than this.
