All workers must be paid in full for their work. That is not in question or open for debate.

Unfortunately, Democrats are advancing a partisan proposal which will fail to meet that goal.

This legislation would then impose crushing penalties on employers for not being able to effectively navigate the maze of red tape it intends to create.

This legislation, if signed into law, could be the nail in the coffin for many struggling job creators.

Democrats have long been hostile to the independent contractor model, which has offered flexibility and well-paying opportunities to millions of Americans.

Calling our country's job creators 'thieves' is beyond outrageous and should have no place in our policymakers' discourse.

I just think we, as policymakers, need to quit demonizing the people we represent that create jobs every day.

The DeLauro bill is counterproductive and will harm America's job creators and workers.

President Biden and my colleagues on the other side of the aisle refuse to address the glaring source of illicit drugs in our country, the unsecured southern border.

Socialized medicine is not only the wrong approach, it would be detrimental to our healthcare system and the patients who rely on it.

changing who pays the bill does not make something affordable. All it does is remove choices from people.

Violence on any level is unacceptable. This topic is especially pertinent now as the conflict in Ukraine continues.

We should conduct real oversight of the Biden Administration's disastrous policies that have led to surging gas prices and inflation.

I hope my colleagues on the other side of the aisle are able to see how their radical Green New Deal policies are hurting all Americans.

Every day this Administration seems to create a new problem.

At what point will Democrats support energy independence for our country, and second, at what point will Democrats stop attacking an American industry?

Now is not the time to penalize American energy producers who have the capability to provide the entire world with cleaner energy.

But that effort must go hand-in-hand with strengthening American energy and supporting domestic oil and gas production.

I think the Administration should rethink what it has been doing and start putting America first with strong energy policy.

But when you make hyperbolic claims, to just scare people, and it is just about fear...

Do Democrats really believe that putting the oil and gas industry out of business will suddenly make China less a polluter?

I hope this Committee can return to bipartisan cooperation to ensure these programs truly help injured workers.

It is just irresponsible and absurd to have a legislative hearing on a bill released only a day before.

The Trump administration made great strides to correct the trust fund's flaws and to revamp the self-insurance process for coal mine operators.

Congress needs to be working with agencies to improve services and streamline government operations.
