Nations like China see weakness as opportunity. China's fentanyl invades our borders. Their arms supply Putin's regime. China supports enemies, states like Iran. They oppress their own people, especially their women.

What we're witnessing today is proof that strength preserves peace and weakness invites war. We can never project strength around the world when weakness stands in the White House.

And I know a strong leader when I see one. Donald Trump stood up to China before and he will do it again.

I was surprised to learn that $50 million has been designated for Climate Justice Alliance, a group which explicitly publishes a 'Free Palestine' section on its website.

This is a complete catastrophe, Mr. Regan. It is a complete catastrophe, and it needs to be undone.

It is a fact this group is going to get--is slated to get $50 million from U.S. taxpayers.

Are any of these groups who receive this money anti-Semitic, yes or no?

We should not be paying people to come here illegally. This is not part of the founding of our Nation. If we are going to talk about growing our economy, and I think a lot of us know that there is a lot of value there, then we should be…

Unfortunately, Joe Biden is confused. Shocker. The Biden Administration and their 'gender Taliban' cannot even define what it means to be a woman.

Are you concerned that you will not be able to work with some of the contractors you have worked with in the past due to this mandate?

This guidance by the Biden Administration infringes on the First Amendment rights of American workers.

Biological women are real women.

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds made…

Letter, to PCI and NPCA, re: FOCA Support; submitted by Rep. Mace.

I want to submit into the hearing record several coalition letters we have received that oppose the PLA rule, support FOCA.

In 2022, over 100,000 Americans lost their lives due to drug overdoses with nearly 70 percent of those fatal overdoses being due to synthetic opioids like fentanyl. The fentanyl trafficked across our southern border has turned every town…
