This amendment cuts the Rural Business Program Account in half from last year's enacted budget amount of $43,125,000. The Rural Business-Cooperative Service, like a lot of Washington, D.C., programs, has a good name. It doesn't always do…
I thank the gentleman from Louisiana for yielding. He has a great amendment. Now, he doesn't have great hair right now--there is a little too much of it--but he has a great amendment. He is talking about the abuse of States. I come from…
It is important to have a variety of different PBM models, whether a large integrated company or a small standalone PBM.
That is the beauty and the fallacy of government. They solve a problem by making another problem.
The Biden administration is imposing an agenda focused on climate change and equity, which is diverting away from FEMA's core mission.
How do we expect private-sector partners to step up following disasters if they can't count on your administration?

Should the American taxpayer, through FEMA--be responsible for paying for recovery efforts if States are diverting money away from mitigation efforts to misguided net-zero policies?
In the wake of one of the deadliest fires in United States history, a supplemental request for additional disaster funding comes with strings attached to Ukraine.
I don't sometimes agree with my colleagues on what the role of the Federal Government should be in disasters, but I do believe whatever the Federal Government's role is, it should be efficient and actually help people.
I am concerned about those folks in the district that are paying the taxes for FEMA to support them.
FEMA has added layers of bureaucracy and adopted political agendas which have impacted how it delivers on its core mission.

I was unavoidably detained. Had I been present, I would have voted ``nay'' on rollcall No. 390. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the passage of the bill. The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that the…
