Today is an exciting day as we join with our Democratic colleagues for the Congressional Women's Softball Game. The 16th annual event, which raises money for breast cancer awareness, will be played in a bipartisan fashion against the…

Right now, we're all focused on making sure that this institution continues to function. And I think today we showed that we're tired of the chaos and the nonsense.

I thank Chairman Lucas for yielding. Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of H.R. 4877, the Abandoned Well Remediation Research and Development Act. In Oklahoma, there are over half a million oil and gas wells, which allow our State to rank…

For many, today is just another day on the calendar, but for Oklahomans, today marks significance. It was 29 years ago today, April 19, 1995, that the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building was bombed, and 168 Oklahoma lives were lost. I could…

Subcommittees can play an important role in the legislative process, and we are demonstrating that through our work here.

This will eliminate the cost associated with printing a hardbound version, which according to CRS and GPO, would save just over a million dollars.

These measures will help streamline processes and improve the way the Congressional Research Service works on behalf of Congress.

By prioritizing a more efficient Congress, we are saving taxpayer dollars.

I think the focus for us is trying to find ways to utilize technology in a beneficial way.

I think that is the best news I have heard.

Tomorrow, the House Administration Subcommittee on Modernization will be marking up H.R. 7592 to remove the print requirement for the Annotated Constitution and pocket-part supplements.

I think it is incredibly important that we have visibility and insight and transparency.

I worry, because we have seen an increase in crime in the metropolitan area, that--and we have seen carjackings.

And I also want to thank Congresswoman Bice for the Subcommittee on Modernization in the House Administration Committee for setting up space in the Longworth Building.

I want to start by--you mentioned patrolling not only the Capitol complex but areas adjacent to it, particularly those that have a large number of Members living in them.

I fully recognize the work CRS analysts do to support Congress. That work is invaluable.

I am pleased that we are joined today by Robert Newlen, CRS' interim director.

I think the Subcommittee process is important, and that is especially true here as we consider bills that directly relate to our mission to improve and modernize the institution.

On February 11, Oklahoma City lost a wonderful public servant. Cathy Cummings was one of the most positive and friendly women you would ever meet. Although our political leanings were quite different, she always greeted me with a hug and a…

Since the breakthroughs of the shale revolution, the United States has become a growing producer of natural gas and a significant exporter of liquefied natural gas. This past year, LNG exports hit record highs, and we became the world's…

Earlier in this debate, the gentleman from Mississippi noted that there has been more fentanyl seized at our southern border than ever before, but what he did not recognize is that there are now more fentanyl deaths in this country than…

Since President Biden took office, he has not only waged a full-scale assault on American energy production but also on widely used gas-powered automobiles in order to cater to electric vehicles. Despite EVs accounting for only 14 percent…

Back in August, my home State Governor Kevin Stitt said the fentanyl-related deaths in Oklahoma have increased by nearly 500 percent over the past few years.

One can only imagine how much fentanyl is making it across our porous border and not being seized.

It is the foremost duty of Government to protect its citizens against the harm to one's life, liberty, and property.
