This is a topic that is finally becoming sexy--popular to people on both sides of the aisle.

Social Security won't run out of surplus money until 2033, then afterwards we're in a crisis because people will only be getting 77 percent of what they're getting right now.

A climate change mandate from Washington, D.C. won't solve the public health and health care finance challenges that we face this very day.

We need to ensure that these taxpayers funds that we call Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid are used wisely to address pressing health issues facing Americans.

Let's not pretend that we're worried about the credibility of the Court if we are simultaneously attacking the credibility of the Court and its ability to do its job.

Those who have second- or third-trimester abortions, late-term abortions, do they have--what do their higher suicides look like?

This legislation Democrats are now pushing would prohibit any State law from regulating abortion within a State's borders.

Dobbs corrected a prior error.

Using the definition that the intent is to kill the baby, I would say none.

69 percent of Americans are uncomfortable with abortion after the first trimester.

FERC is a very logical choice.

But again, the CBO has indicated that cutting $100 billion would not tamper with nor even touch our ability to ensure our national security.

It will be my objective to phase out Social Security, to pull it up from the roots, and to get rid of it.

We are facing is really a gun trafficking crisis, that the ATF is trying to intervene and save lives

I do want to remind everyone, anyone watching this hearing, as well as American taxpayers more broadly, that it's Congress that ultimately determines annual spending and revenue levels, not the President's annual budget.

The President claims to be a steward of fiscal responsibility, with a track record on deficit and debt accumulation in the last two years.

I do want to remind everyone, anyone watching this hearing, as well as American taxpayers more broadly, that it's Congress that ultimately determines annual spending and revenue levels, not the President's annual budget.

It's just not true. House Freedom Caucus has one member who asked for a vote on something like that, but the Freedom Caucus itself doesn't do that, nor would the Freedom Caucus support that in the absence of a full repeal of the 16th…

Those aren't spending cuts, those are tax increases, but yeah.
