Mr. Speaker, I rise today during National Police Week to honor the brave men and women in law enforcement who put on the badge every day and stand between safety and danger. Across Kansas and across our Nation, law enforcement officers…

Mr. Speaker, H.R. 8352 is a commonsense and bipartisan bill that fixes a critical flaw in the Federal statute. State peace officer standards and training agencies, or POSTs, are responsible for certifying, licensing, and overseeing law…

Mr. Speaker, how do you look a rape victim or a domestic violence victim in the eye and tell them that the good folks in your community, the advocates and the supporters of domestic violence services or rape crisis centers or child…

on our watch, we prosecuted parents, we prosecuted grandparents, we prosecuted ministers, and we prosecuted coaches. Mr. Speaker, the only evidence you have is what that child can testify to in front of a bunch of strangers in a jury box…

I am back again on this subject with this chart that shows the growth and the number of pages in the Federal Register where all of the Federal regulations are published. It is where they are codified. That is where you go to look them up…

It's really not a red state or blue state thing. It is a — in my view, a concerning attempt, a concerning effort to consolidate and overreach at the federal level. In the United States of America, it's the states who run elections, not the…

Mr. Speaker, a law enforcement officer does not cease being a law enforcement officer merely because he is off duty or because of where he goes, or she goes. Upon retirement, the scars of service, including the animosities built up with…

Mr. Speaker, H.R. 2243, the Law Enforcement Officer Safety Reform Act, which reforms the LEOSA, makes important updates to the existing LEOSA program. In 2004, President George W. Bush signed LEOSA into law. The law exempts certain active…

I am very proud to join my colleagues tonight in recognition of National Small Business Week, and actually, all the parts we have talked about are connected. National Small Business Week recognizes the importance of the small businesses…

I will have no comment on that last comment from my colleague from Utah.

I thank the gentleman from California for bringing us this important piece of legislation. I haven't been here very long in this body, but I have learned something, and it is amplified today. That is that this town has a remarkable ability…

I thank the chairman of the committee for bringing this bill, and I rise in strong support of H.R. 1156, the Pandemic Unemployment Fraud Enforcement Act. There is an old expression that we have all heard at one time or another about the…

And when it does occur the extent to which there's evidence of it, and allegations of widespread voter fraud in Pennsylvania are completely and totally unfounded. Voters should have confidence that we will have a free, fair, safe and…

The most important people on Election Day, it's not the secretary of state, it's not even a county commissioner. It's those friends and neighbors who volunteer essentially for a 14-hour day in Pennsylvania to make sure that when you show…

Elections have never been more safe and secure with a voter-verifiable paper-ballot record of every vote that's cast that is used in not one but two audits after every election to ensure the tabulated results are accurate.

It's important that none of this that we've experienced should keep people from voting, should keep people from stepping up.

I am deeply grateful to Senator Klobuchar for introducing the Freedom to Vote Act and other proposed legislation that aims to help.

Now, more than ever, we need a sustained and robust Congressional commitment to support our efforts in protecting the democracy.

It's important that we, we stand up against these lies and that we not surrender the Republican Party.

Well, I think it's important that people know how widespread this was, especially for Republican election officials, across the country, and that the former President intentionally targeted them, targeted them by name.

It has nothing to do with being a Republican at all. It has to do with whether you're willing to lie, for the former President, or not.

After the president tweeted at me by name, calling me out the way that he did, the threats became much more specific, much more graphic, and included not just me by name, but included members of my family by name, their ages, our address…
