Marsha Blackburn

Last October, Twitter blocked my campaign launch video from its ads platform due to my pro-life message.

I appreciate you being here today and I will yield back my 30 seconds.

we are always interested in ways that we can stop Federal overreach, and that is something that is so important to my constituents in Tennessee

Prioritization is not a dirty word. The Internet is based on it.

Despite what some of my colleagues sometimes seem to think, prioritization is not a dirty word.

My net neutrality bill left out the old language banning all paid prioritization because I believe that we need a more nuanced approach.

We encourage others to do this, and I do want to note for Chairman Blackburn, your home State airport of Memphis was the first one to join the Aira Airport Network, paying for the minutes of Aira users at Memphis airport in order to get…

we need for you to look at new legislation, and you are hearing there will be more bills brought out in the next few weeks

I wanted you just to talk a little bit about what you think putting these guidelines in place, passing this legislation, what that would do to help with clinical care and the health outcomes for our Medicaid enrollees.

And so the IMD exclusion comes up a good bit.

Would it be helpful if you had the benchmarks that they had to hit across the board?

we need some rules and regulations. This is only 13 pages.

my constituents in Tennessee want to know that they have a right to privacy, and we would hope that that is important to you all.

Diamond and Silk is not terrorism.

will you commit to working with us to pass privacy legislation, to pass the BROWSER Act, will you commit to doing that?

It's high time we pay more attention to the harm being done to consumers and broadcasters alike.

Last month, we shocked the naysayers by shepherding many of the subcommittee's top priorities through the full committee unanimously in RAY BAUM'S Act.

Burdensome regulations harm many of these small entities' ability to grow, expand, and hire new employees.

I just want a few minutes to speak in favor of H.R. 3787, the Small Entity Regulatory Relief Opportunity Act.

Suicide is the tenth leading cause of death in Tennessee, and this legislation would make it easier for those facing a mental crisis to get the help they need with a dedicated N-1-1 number.

Every member of the committee wants to expand rural broadband.

And also Representative Stewart has entered the room and we thank him for the work that he has done on the suicide bill.

I think it's incumbent we all recognize and acknowledge that these unique--that there are unique business regulatory challenges for these small entities.

I couldn't be more pleased with the work of members of the subcommittee and all the important initiatives we've gotten some work going on this year.

I am so grateful for the chairman's leadership and the fact that we are approaching this in a bipartisan, bicameral manner.
