I would like to thank the gentlewoman for organizing this evening. I am proud to join so many of my colleagues here tonight to stand up for the unborn. Since the tragic 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling, more than 60 million preborn children in…
Increasingly across this Nation and here in Washington, the voices of victims are being drowned out by radicals on the left seeking to eliminate cash bail. These people would rather see criminals walk free on our streets than see the rule…
Inflation rates are at a 30-year high, and gas prices are up 61 percent since last year. Why? Well, according to Joe Biden, it is because of the American Rescue Plan that this body passed in the spring. No less than the President himself…
I want to thank my friend for yielding and for sponsoring this evening's Special Order. Madam Speaker, this week the Labor Department's consumer price index jumped 6.2 percent in October from a year earlier, reflecting an increase in the…
Being a parent is a sacred responsibility, and every parent simply wants what is best for their kids. That is why, over the past year, we saw parents speak up at local school board meetings all across the country. Whether it was pushing…
Time and again I come to the House floor to highlight the out-of-control spending schemes of the House majority. But sadly, this falls on deaf ears as they continue their efforts to push leftist government-dependency bills through this…
Our Nation is facing avoidable crises on many fronts. Because of President Biden's and the Democrats' failed leadership, Americans are dealing with a border crisis, an inflation crisis, a spreading crime crisis, and a crisis in…

I rise with my colleagues in support of life and against the so-called Women's Health Protection Act, which would radically expand abortion nationwide through all 9 months of pregnancy. Importantly, rather than protecting women and their…
Almost exactly 8 months ago Joe Biden kicked off his presidency by signing an executive order that weakened our border security and promised a pathway to citizenship for millions of illegal immigrants. These actions and his reversal of the…
I thank the ranking member for yielding the time and the chair for her leadership as well. I am honored to be a new member of the Appropriations Committee, but I must oppose this appropriations bill. I was disappointed by the party-line…
Rather than working across the aisle to advance a bipartisan highway bill, as they are attempting to do in the Senate, House Democrats have jammed a partisan bill through to the floor that puts America on a road to nowhere. This bill is…
There is no denying that Congress must take action to improve our Nation's crumbling infrastructure. But, sadly, bipartisan negotiations have hit a roadblock, and the infrastructure legislation on the floor this week is a go-at-it-alone…
Despite our Nation sitting on the edge of a fiscal cliff, the Biden administration continues to propose trillions upon trillions of dollars in new taxpayer spending. Sadly, yet not unexpectedly, the American people are beginning to see the…

There is no denying that we need to support an all-of-the-above solution for energy policy to secure our energy independence. But the Green New Deal which was recently introduced, yet again, seeks to fundamentally change our way of life…
I think that this administration is abdicating its responsibility when it comes to not only making sure that our border is secure, but caring adequately for those who are coming across.
Community colleges are invaluable to the localities and students they serve to educate and prepare them to enter the workforce.
