We should be examining the regulatory hurdles that are disproportionately harming community banks and credit unions.

We seem to be going back to where we were back in the 1960s, and it is not good.

I am a big tax cutter.

You cannot help but wonder how many illegitimate entities were able to walk away with tens of thousands of taxpayer dollars because of this decision.

The taxpayers were the ones left holding the bag, as usually happens.

This hearing could not come at a more important time for Main Street America.

I completely disagree with that assessment.

In February alone, Border Patrol encountered 154,000 illegal aliens.

They told me that in 2022, their office seized $35 million worth of drugs, which was 1,000 percent more than the $3 million worth that was seized in 2020.

I am extremely concerned that as our border agents continue to be overwhelmed by this rush of migrants, it is making it easier for drug traffickers to slip through the cracks.

Fentanyl trafficking has become synonymous with the Mexican cartels who exploited the Biden's Administration's lax enforcement in border security and immigration controls to pour this poison into our country.
