Dan Crenshaw

I'm extremely disappointed in the very strange maneuvering by many on the right to torpedo a potential border reform bill. That's what we all ran on doing.

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 42, line 6, after the dollar amount, insert the following: ``(reduced by $200,000) (increased by…

Mr. Crenshaw, I rise today to offer amendment No. 137, which takes the simple yet important step of directing the Defense Health Agency to report to Congress on options for allowing Active-Duty servicemembers to participate in VA…

Whenever we are imposing a cost on Americans, you have to directly link it to a benefit, and that benefit is very clearly not there in this case.

It's very problematic. There's a reason I'm not defending it.

I would love to put them out of business. I guess we are on the same page there.

There is a social cost of energy and security. It is a massive social cost.

What do we think this multihundreds of billions of dollars of investment, what do we think it is going to do for our climate? This is just a cost-benefit question.

Well, I can tell you if the entirety of the OECD countries, all developed countries stopped emitting tomorrow and we all went back into the Stone Age, do you know how much we would reduce the temperature by the year 2100? Point four…

So because we are talking about subsidizing rich people so they can buy a Tesla. That is what we are talking about.

I mean let's look at the total EV subsidies in the IRA, almost $400 billion when you actually account for probably what is going to happen in the next 10 years.

It's a simple but positive step in the right direction and I hope this committee will include this policy in the NDAA.

I want to tell a story...

Eighty-five percent of APIs are from foreign countries. Sixty percent of our finished dose forms are from foreign countries.

I am introducing bipartisan legislation that would seek to--open access to independent primary care physicians in State Medicaid programs.

I think this legislation would go far in allowing States to experiment with their own Medicaid programs.

One of the problems here was that the DSH cuts did come from the ACA.

everything we are referring to here is a cost-benefit analysis. What is the benefit you are getting for the cost that you are incurring on people who can probably afford to pay it the least?

It is important that, particularly as we still have uninsured in the country, to make sure that hospitals are paid for caring for them.

I am proud to partner with Congresswoman Clarke on bipartisan legislation to create a fully paid-for, 2-year solution to Medicaid DSH funding.

After assault-style weapons were used to kill 19 children and two adults in Uvalde, 23 people in El Paso (including eight Mexicans) and 26 in Sutherland Springs--all in his home State of Texas--Crenshaw opposed requiring background checks…

These men and women are proud to fulfill their duty to secure our border, and they do this with no thanks, no support, and no recognition from your administration.

Mr. Secretary, every time you fail to acknowledge this is a crisis, you lose even more credibility with the men and women of DHS.

There is no debating the threat the cartels pose.

Mr. Secretary, this budget proposal is an insult to every American.
