Political Quotes

On the recordNovember 8, 2023
I would argue that it is time that Congress empowers any President to be able to staff their office, and if they have a member of their administration who is undermining their policies that they are able to--and it is not that we are saying to fire these individuals. It is a matter of putting them in another role where they are better suited so the President can carry forward on their policies. It is my understanding that we have people within Biden's own administration who don't agree with him on policy. That is not their call. That is the President's call. That is the call of Congress. So this is empowering the President, the administrative office, to be able to run more like a business. Mr. Chairman, I ask adoption of this amendment. I think it is good, sound policy, and it puts a check and balance in place on career politicians who are more focused on their agenda than serving Congress or serving the President. Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.
