I think this is one of the few areas where I can agree with my Republican colleagues on the need and nature of this oversight.

Would you be concerned that to do so would be an infringement or perhaps a chilling on the First Amendment rights of parents to participate freely?

Does anyone need any further proof that these allegations are ginned up, corrupt political stunts advanced by those who don't want to see us follow the law.

Can you explain why an FBI agent should not receive cash?

If they were, 5 CFR 2635, and I would appreciate it if we can get an answer in writing after you go back, whether they were or not, prohibits FBI employees from accepting cash gifts, doesn't it?

I think they are clearly there for all friends and family to see. I assume they wanted to be seen.

Does the constant condemnation impact the morale of FBI personnel or those trying to join the FBI?

Does domestic terrorism impact negatively and dangerously on America's law enforcement and first responders?

I am a rabid supporter of the First Amendment, but we have a crisis around children, and there is a level of responsibility that we must demand.

Our approach to getting that--again, my legislation deals with enhanced penalties that's on the back side of it for those utilization on social media to sell pills.

I want to just follow the line of questioning that I did not get a chance, and it might be redundant, redundant, redundant, but maybe asked in a different way.

I hope you will consider the legislation because we have to find a multiple level of dealing this.

I am in the business of stopping fentanyl and particularly the impact that it's had on our children.

This is the height of hypocrisy.

I urge my Republican colleagues to work together to provide the necessary resources to Federal agencies to combat TCOs and prevent fentanyl trafficking.

What can Congress do to help these individuals? Can we just combine those two answers?

Did the Trump White House follow these typical processes in exercising his clemency powers?

I think that we should be concerned about that.

The backlog is just unacceptable.

Let us finally eliminate the crack to powder cocaine, sentencing disparity that has been responsible for decades of unnecessarily long prison sentences for all people, including Black and Brown people.

If Republicans really want to address disparate treatment, I am here before you.

No person should be subject, especially prison, for conduct of which they have not been convicted either by a jury or a knowing plea of guilty.

I and my Democratic counterparts in Congress and those who came me have decried a two-tiered system of justice since the founding of this country.

This hearing and his case are indeed evidence of an unbalanced system of justice, one that exists only for the wealthy and well-connected.

Thousands of backlog cases, people who are credible and qualified, meet the eligibility standards, and there they are languishing.
