I'm thankful that we're having a hearing today on inflation.

The problem for this administration is that, for all the denials, the American people know that they're not being told the truth.

Our United States Constitution was not written to be shredded in times of crisis or in tragedy...

Truly, there is no single common denominator for the truly heinous acts we have all witnessed...

The pro-life issue used to be a bipartisan issue in this Chamber even as we recognized that our essential liberties of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness were inalienable rights given to us not by government but by God, and the…

But when it comes to what is normal, the Democrats have proposed two bills that we will be voting on Friday: H.R. 8296 and H.R. 8297.

Our Declaration of Independence was unique in that it introduced into the world a profound set of ideals...

In the few years that I have been in office, we have gone from the coyotes on the Southern side of the border who kind of duck and hide until our armed border patrol would move their posts, and then they would try to sneak people and drugs…

If China were to send over some sort of bomb, chemical warfare that killed 70,000, 80,000, to 100,000 people in our country, do you think that would be considered an act of war?

We are turning Mexico into a narco-state because of our inaction on the border.

the EPA sometimes makes political decisions.

And this is the result of failed liberal policy.

I thank Jodey for putting this together. I have enjoyed sitting with him in many of the meetings that he has called to work on fiscal responsibility, reaching across the aisle to see about having those important conversations, realizing…

Today, I rise to recognize an extraordinary friend and great servant of the Texas 27th Congressional District, Steve Meinhausen. Steve came to Texas in 2004 with his wife, Carrie, and four children: Matthew, Makenna, Kacey, and Ellie…

This is a tragedy that is heartbreaking for all of us.

Mr. Chairman, reigning in our debt and deficits only gets harder the longer we wait.

This isn't a red or blue issue, Republican or Democrat. This is simply good governance.

Today I rise to honor a pillar of our community, Mayor Patrick ``Pat'' Rios of Rockport, Texas. Pat has led the city of Rockport as the mayor for the past 4 years and his term ends this month. This position was the culmination of his…

On that I demand the yeas and nays. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to section 3(s) of House Resolution 8, the yeas and nays are ordered. Pursuant to clause 8 of rule XX, further proceedings on this question are postponed. Amendment No…

This issue is so important, and I thank the chairman for putting this together because this is the message that we need to continue to speak about. Being from south Texas, our district sees every week the effects of this and has for years…

I would encourage you to reverse course and support this discharge petition.
