Supporting American aviation innovation is critical to maintaining our global leadership position in this arena.
I appreciate the opportunity to testify about priorities for the reauthorization of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) that will support economic growth and airport service in my community, expand and support our aviation workforce…
By its position, H.R. 1 reflects a top priority of the House majority. There is much that my constituents in Houston agree we should be prioritizing in this Congress when it comes to energy--not only lowering energy costs, which is the…
The work we did in the Inflation Reduction Act was to reduce methane emissions, incentivize clean energy investment, and protect communities. Because of that and because this bill repeals that important work, I cannot vote for it. People…
I think that is what we are hearing from colleagues on both sides of the aisle today, is a real effort to grapple with the challenges that we see for national security, and for the safety and protection of American citizens, especially our…
I think it underscores some of the concerns that have been raised in this hearing. So I think it is clear we have work we need to continue to do here in the Congress to address data protection and privacy.
Most people using TikTok do not realize that TikTok is collecting data about their keystrokes or about their browsing history on other sites, and so much more.
For 1\1/2\ years now, people in Texas who are able to do so have been traveling out of State to obtain abortion care, and now that 15 other States have banned abortion, more people are traveling even farther to get the reproductive…

I think there has been a lot of really important information conveyed, as well, in your written testimony.
I hope I can work with Mr. Pfluger and my friends on both sides of the aisle to really work on understanding the depths of this incredibly complicated work we have in front of us and working together to achieve all of our shared objectives.
I would request, hopefully, that we will get a little more notice in the future in time to review these bills.
Several have spoken about the benefits of satellite telecommunications for consumers experiencing disasters and communities recovering from disasters.
As many have noted in testimony and in questions today, this growing industry has great potential to connect Americans in rural and underserved areas and to provide life-saving service during emergencies and natural disasters.
In Texas' Seventh Congressional District that I represent and along the Texas Gulf Coast, we are, unfortunately, all too familiar with flooding and extreme rain events and hurricanes and emergency and natural disasters.
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the Inflation Reduction Act that we passed last Congress are historic pieces of legislation.
I am disappointed to hear some of the attacks on the 117th Congress' energy policies rather than more ideas about how we can work together.
Energy security is a key component of our national security. Our energy exports have a security impact around the world as they do here at home. That is why I am disappointed this morning to hear many of my friends across the aisle…
I join my Democratic colleagues in opposing, on the strongest terms, all forms of political violence. That is something that this resolution fails to do. This resolution fails to acknowledge decades of well-documented violence against…
Today is a historic day. Today, we will vote on the question of whether to allow Medicare to negotiate the price of prescription drugs and cap out-of-pocket costs for seniors; lower the cost of healthcare; implement smart energy policy to…
In my beloved home State of Texas, we are in a crisis, a healthcare crisis, a humanitarian crisis. Since last September, access to abortion has been severely limited. Since last month, it has been eliminated. In response, Texans who can do…
