The distinguished former majority leader brings up FSGG, the Financial Services and General Government bill. What he left out was the fact that we are going to give $200 million to the FBI for its new headquarters, even after Republicans…
The gentleman from Florida a moment ago talked about the fact that we defund UNRWA, and we defund some policies that are pernicious. I agree with him. It is a part of the process that we carried out last year when we set out to change this…
I come here to the floor recognizing the state of affairs that we find ourselves in, given the extent to which the President of the United States and his radical progressive Democrat allies on the other side of the aisle here and in the…
I thank the gentleman from New York. I appreciate what he came to the floor to address. We all have these great stories back home in our districts, and it is worth regaling those things, and I am glad he got the ability to do that. Mr…
I thank the gentleman from Georgia for yielding to me. I appreciate him getting this time on the floor for us to address such a pressing matter as the national security of the United States and the well-being of her citizens. The truth of…
the ``Securing America's Land for Foreign Interference Act'' would direct the President to take necessary actions to prevent the purchase of land by CCP members or entities under the control or influence of the CCP.
We are in a cold war with China and some of my colleagues want to ignore this fact. We have legislation before us that is 12 pages long. The bill is not a ban. It forces foreign adversaries, including Chinese Communists, to divest. The…
I will close with this. In a couple of years, this country is going to be celebrating its 250th birthday on July 2, 2026. The question we have to ask ourselves is whether or not we are going to have a country that we pass down to our kids…
I am glad to be here in an empty Chamber having the rigorous debate that we are so accustomed to here in the people's House, but that is, again, where we find ourselves with the level of debate at the moment. We are left with bringing…
I thank the gentleman from Kentucky for yielding. Mr. Speaker, I know he is probably as surprised as I am to be accused of taking orders from the former President and following whatever the former President says. If the gentleman from…
The America I know enforces the rule of law. The America I know establishes a rule of law that attracts people from the world to come to our country. That is why people come to the United States of America, because the rule of law affords…
I guess now, in conclusion on this point, back to the border, an absolute tragedy that is unfolding for Americans reeling, like Laken Riley's parents, like Lizbeth's mom--by the way, you left out the fact, I understand, that she was…
Does the gentleman believe that next week, we, as Republicans, should be voting to fund chief diversity officers across the Department of Defense that are destroying recruiting and turning our military into a social engineering experiment…
We are spending now, this year, more on interest than our national defense. We will be cracking a trillion dollars of interest in 2026. We are now going to pass a package that spends $1.66 trillion, which the CBO acknowledges will continue…
To be clear, we are racking up an additional trillion dollars of debt every 100 days.
Should we be funding, for example, under COVID, the continued funding of the Wuhan lab or anything with respect to EcoHealth Alliance without any accountability for any of the people who sent our entire economy into a tailspin, racking up…
Does the gentleman agree that we will be fully funding Joe Biden's student loan bailout schemes that were found to be unlawful by the United States Supreme Court? He literally stood at the microphone and said: I don't care, I am doing it…
How about the HHS funding that we are going to be taking up next week, including the Office of Refugee Resettlement, which lost track, as the gentleman knows, of 85,000 migrant children, according to that bastion of rightwing conspiracy…
Yet will not the very same people who will stand up and say we must fund this do so on the backs of the men and women in uniform saying that we must do this for defense, we must do this to make our defense stronger? Will they not be voting…
Will we continue to fund through the State and Foreign Operations bill the President's radical anti-life agenda? Will we pass, instead, any of the pro-life protections, like the Mexico City policy, or no? What will we be funding…
Now, will we vote this week to fund UNRWA? Now, even if UNRWA is taken out, which it is possible it will be, will we continue to fund all of the so-called humanitarian relief that is still getting funneled to Hamas?
Those gentlemen at the Alamo, who gave their last full measure of devotion, did it for an idea. Remember what they were doing, right? They were seeking separation from the federal government of Mexico and ultimately did so. A few weeks…
That is right, like literally a year ago. I might just add on this chart, the gentleman refers to House Republicans last year, when we were trying to restore regular order and conservatives were working hard to do that and conservatives…
I appreciate my friend for joining me. We came here tonight to celebrate what those men sacrificed for the State of Texas but for our country and the men like them and the women like them over our history. I hope we will do better. We owe…
I thank my friend from Utah for his time down here on the floor pointing out some of the things that we most assuredly will not hear from the President of the United States and those that we wish we would hear from him. I can tell you one…
