We cannot allow that to happen.

It is more important than ever that we build strong relationships with our allies in Latin America based on mutual respect, fair commerce, and a shared commitment to security and human rights.

The notion that President Biden or Secretary Mayorkas are guilty of 'dereliction of duty' are absurd.

There are common-sense, bipartisan actions that this committee could be taking up to improve security along the Southern Border.

I am getting sick and tired of House Republicans politicizing the Department of Homeland Security.

The reality is that because these TCO treats emanate from outside our border, because the violence, the taking advantage of people who are fleeing poverty, fleeing persecution all originates or primarily originates in Central, South…

One of the remedies to this is, let people apply for asylum at U.S. consulates or from their home countries so that they can see whether they are eligible or not.

I have introduced a bill--or I'm introducing a bill soon to stiffen penalties for dealers that fail to conduct background checks that they are legally required to conduct.

I support those things. They don't. Fine. Leave that conversation for another day.

It is disappointing, I think, that my colleagues across the aisle are so eager to overturn anything the Biden administration does that they do it before they even see it.

I think it is important that everyone in this Congress understand the importance of staffing for your agency so that you can do this work.

There are a number of Members who have come to express their gratitude to Congressman Cicilline. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Pelosi), the Speaker Emerita.

I thank you, and it is very important that we fund you so that you have the ability to do this important work.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and NOAA play an absolutely essential role in protecting our natural environment, protecting species, and supporting American industry and small business.

Less water means less food, means higher prices, means more kids going hungry in my district and in districts across the country.

When I am back home in Rhode Island, one of the top issues that I hear about from my constituents is the price of food, which is too high for working people.

The CCP routinely uses espionage and cyber exploitation to steal American intellectual property, trade secrets, and even defense information.

The CCP has aggressively pursued unfair economic practices like currency devaluation, the use of weak and inhumane labor standards, and in particular intellectual property theft.
