We stand with the people of Yuma.

We will make sure that you have those resources, sir.

We recognize it as a national security crisis.

Americans should be outraged by the Biden Administration's failed leadership.

From day one, this administration has blatantly ignored U.S. immigration laws and policies designed to keep America safe.

Americans are hurting. Their paychecks are declining in value, but Democrats continue to fund these out-of-touch policies with billions of taxpayer dollars from hardworking Americans. That is why I am voting ``no.'' I hope my colleagues…

The hearing has provided us with the opportunity to highlight some of the most disastrous impacts of the plan.

The federal deficit in 2021 was $2.78 trillion, the second highest deficit in American history.

It is something we have been asking to do for quite a while.

And that is the greatest tragedy of this Administration.

The government is repositioning and implementing more of this pseudo socialist ideology that the current Administration and the current congressional leadership is promoting.

It is our priority to ensure that students get a good education, and that stems from good teachers.

Well, we end on a point of bipartisan support and we share your support for that and I hope we can get that done.

Now, you are proposing a rapid energy transition where it is abundantly clear that we are going to be depending on China, countries like China to pursue these climate goals.

Well, my constituency can't forget about the need to put clothes on their kids' back right now and climate change, as you say, being an existential threat, is not going to solve the problem of making sure the kids are clothed and fed and…

I want more access to the Antarctic facilities and our telescope facilities.

Every challenge is also an opportunity to do things better.

Good ideas can come from anywhere, and they get funded because they are going to advance scientific discoveries.

But it is my understanding in your budget request, you are requesting $600 million a year to pay for attorneys for unauthorized aliens; is that correct?

So I think what we are seeing here is a broad misinterpretation of the statute and a mis-application.

Not only did the judge rule that the CDC went beyond its authority, they also found that they violated the APA.

I would like to understand your basis for the belief that the CDC was acting within the scope of its authority.

I think it is intentionally evasive on the part of you and on the part of NIH.

Well, money is fungible, as you well know. And I would argue to the contrary.

The pandemic policies of this administration that include massive trillion dollar spending packages and economic restrictions... started this ball rolling.
