I have noticed that some of my colleagues don't seem to care very much about impacts on marine life when we are talking about offshore oil and gas, only when we are talking about offshore wind.

Coming from Rhode Island, offshore wind is not a hypothetical for us; it is a reality.

So, when Big Oil walks away from its responsibilities, American taxpayers could be left holding the ballooning of the debt and the ballooning billion-dollar bill.

A new report by the non-partisan government watchdog, the GAO, found that the industry is shirking important but expensive decommissioning responsibilities.

The focus needs to be on our most vulnerable communities, not Big Oil's profits.

What you are going to find here is that if we were to solve this crisis, this committee wouldn't have anything to talk about.

I don't want open borders. I want a secure border.

They passed a budget plan, the so-called Limit, Save, Grow Act, which would have cut the Department of Homeland Security by 22 percent.

It is my House Republican colleagues who have been derelict in their duty.

If you care about it, call a vote. If you don't like all of the proposal, call a vote on the parts that you do like.

Thank you for your willingness to share your experiences and expertise with us today.

We must remain focused on preserving America's reputation as the beacon of hope and freedom to the world.

I was pleased to see President Biden directly address the Pannun murder plot by the Indian Government.

Intimidation and violence toward any community in the United States by any nation-state is intolerable and unacceptable.

The plots against Ms. Alinejad and Mr. Pannun are horrific and unacceptable.

It takes incredible courage for you to come before us and speak out today against those who seek to silence and even kill those who dissent.

Thank you, Chairman Pfluger, for calling this important hearing.

If we do it for oil and gas, we ought to do it for wind, too.

I can tell you, coming from Rhode Island, it is very real.

There ought to be some conversation about limiting the windfall profits.

We are talking about minerals that the American public owns that the oil and gas industry extracts and then sells back to us at inflated prices.

The oil and gas industry is keeping hundreds of billions of dollars of profits for their own pockets.

I am proud to have signed on as a cosponsor to Representative Titus and Representative Buck's Combatting Organized Retail Theft Act.

We applaud Representative Titus as an original sponsor and Ranking Member Magaziner for his support of the Combating Organized Retail Crime Act (H.R. 895).

It is important that we get to the root of the problem of organized retail crime to keep people safe and lower costs for everyone across the country.
