Thank you, the gentleman from Kansas. You hit on something. Obama's Energy Secretary, Steven Chu, before he was nominated to be the Secretary of Energy, wanted to figure out how to boost the price of a gallon of gasoline in this country to…
I, too, believe in America's greatness. And I stood here and heard her talk about the world is looking to America to be great again. This is an area that we can be great in. I've traveled around my district recently and asked folks about…
What would happen if we had a hurricane? We're in hurricane season, and we've released 30 billion gallons from the reserve. Wasn't that there for that purpose?
I tell you what, you've hit on something that I think we need to talk more about in this Congress, and that is the administration taking the easy road, trying to lessen fuel prices at the pump for Americans. But it was a short-term…
I thank the gentleman. The time is now. The time is now to stop the policies of this administration of taking Federal land off the table when it comes to wind, solar, and hydrogen. The wind farms. There's a bill in our committee that deals…
The same American greatness that the gentleman from Ohio was talking about, where innovation meets a need. We have a need for energy independence, and innovation is meeting that need by creating a brand new company and technology to put…
We're about out of time. I just wanted to thank my colleagues for understanding and expressing very clearly that we have the resources in this country to meet our energy needs. We need to put America back to work, harvesting those as a…
The last Congress was known as the Congress of bailouts, takeovers, taxation, and regulation. This Congress is working to be the Congress of free markets, achieving American energy independence, and job creation. Back in May, the House…
I want to commend the gentlewoman from Texas for acknowledging the facts that we do have a problem...
It says the United States shall guarantee every State in this Union a republican form of government...
I realize that the tunnels are mainly used for smuggling drugs. That is the most profitable thing.
In July of last year, we had the first IED explode in this hemisphere just south of the Mexican border.
I am very alarmed that our administration is not identifying who our enemy is.
First, I thank my colleagues for taking this time to talk about an issue that--I cannot believe we are even having this discussion. We have seen a lot since we have been here in Washington on January 5, but I never thought that I would see…
You have to wonder why the NLRB is doing this. What is their ultimate gain? I think it's to force a private industry to make a decision that the government tells it to. That's like a government takeover, a government's telling a private…
The gentleman from Georgia just a few minutes ago in the last hour was over there talking about us not manufacturing anything in this country anymore, talking about bringing manufacturing back. I don't know if y'all heard that. I sat there…
I just have to ask myself, listening to my colleagues here, thinking about this issue, since when did America stop becoming and being the land of the free? The land of the free that we sing about all the time? Do we just want to say that…
They said they'd talk with Attorney General Wilson and the other attorneys general, but they said, We're going to do it in secret. We're going to do it in secret. They demanded secret meetings, made threats, and they attacked the right to…

I object. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Objection is heard. The Clerk will read. The Clerk continued to read. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from New Jersey is recognized for 5 minutes in support of his motion.
This Democrat motion is just one more example of congressional Democrats attempting to obstruct a bill that will increase access to American energy resources. This motion is already the law. The law says the President has an authority to…

The recent unprecedented action by the National Labor Relations Board is simply the latest example of this administration putting politics before the needs of the American people. I honestly never thought I would see the day when our…
