Mr. Speaker, I thank and appreciate Mrs. Houchin for putting forward these bills. I am glad there are citizens up here listening to the two different points of view. We are totally different. Some of the things that you said in Rules yesterday, Mr. McGovern, the last 3--well, 4 years under the Biden, czar Harris administration have wrecked this country. You mentioned yesterday, and I brought this up in Rules, empathy for children. Where is the empathy for the 300,000 that this administration is letting in this country unaccompanied, God knows what is happening to them, of the 15 million that are coming in here? How is that working for America? How is it working for America when you are taking the side of the criminal and putting handcuffs on the policemen through your defund police activity? The actions of this administration on tax cuts--tax, tax, tax. You want the Federal Government to tell these people where to spend their money. We are not having it. The reason the amendments aren't made in order, they are dumb. Some of them are good, but most of them are dumb, and they are antifreedom is the best word I can say. I rise today in support of the rule to provide consideration for bills that combat the administration's woke policies that you are forcing on businesses. I am thrilled the rule contained a package of financial service bills. You are right; we shouldn't have to protect them. It should be common sense, but it is not from the Democratic Party.…
