I think it is important to really look at the global entity, and make sure that you are putting regulation in place that makes sure that all of the entity needs to be driving the best interest of its clients.

I remind my colleague from Texas that over 88,000 borrowers from his district will be denied relief if this resolution is enacted. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentlewoman from Michigan (Ms. Tlaib).

I remind my colleague from Tennessee that 89,000 borrowers from his district will be denied relief if this resolution is enacted. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentlewoman from Washington (Ms. Jayapal), a member of the Education…

I remind my colleague from Florida that almost 120,000 borrowers from his district will be denied relief if this resolution is enacted. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentlewoman from North Carolina (Ms. Adams), the ranking member…

I remind my colleague from Georgia that over 110,000 borrowers from his district would be denied relief if this resolution is enacted. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from California (Mr. Takano), the ranking member of the…

I remind my colleague from Michigan that over 90,000 borrowers in his district will be denied relief if this resolution is enacted. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentlewoman from Oregon (Ms. Bonamici).

I remind my colleague from Virginia that over 90,000 borrowers in his district will be denied relief if this resolution is enacted. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from South Carolina (Mr. Clyburn), the assistant Democratic…

This bill is a mean-spirited attack on transgender women's and girls' participation in sports. It essentially requires women and girls to prove their gender. In Kansas, where a similar bill was passed, students could be forced to have…

The current NCAA model is suppressing the pay of student-athletes who collectively generate billions of dollars in revenues for colleges every year.

I think we understand that now we need a Federal law to determine how schools will handle recess and Halloween or Valentine's Day parties. We need a Federal law to tell them how to handle it. I don't think so. I hope we oppose the…

May I inquire how much time I have remaining? The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman has 4 minutes remaining.

This is not a complicated amendment. It just asks whether you want a Department of Education. I think we should have a Department of Education, therefore, I ask for a ``no'' vote on this amendment. Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of…

I demand a recorded vote. The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Tennessee will be postponed. The Chair understands that amendment No. 11 will not be…

I have some concern with some of the terms in the amendment, like what constitutes a major cyberattack or who determines whether an attack has been made, or if notice is required if it may have compromised information and exactly what is…

This amendment exposes a problem with the underlying bill. You should not be able to ban books for other parents' children. In fact, this amendment exposes the bill as actually doing exactly that. That is why this amendment is appropriate…

I support the amendment because the GAO report will actually expose the legislation for what it is. It is a waste of money, will provide no meaningful rights, and it will adversely affect the education of the children. Madam Chair, I…

I don't think we need a Federal law to help schools tell students which bathroom to use. In Loudoun County, that situation is under investigation, including criminal charges. I think it is time we stop disparaging trans youth. Madam Chair…

As I said, the NCAA is working on this, and I just assume rather than disparage trans youth, let them work it out. Madam Chair, I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the…

Did the gentlewoman yield back her time? The Acting CHAIR. The gentlewoman from Colorado yielded back the remainder of her time.

All school systems are members of athletic leagues. They are dealing with this controversy. They don't need a Federal law to apply all over the country. In higher education, the NCAA is dealing with this. We don't need a Federal law to…

This is just a small sample of the financial industry's support for the underlying rule. We should not overturn the rule with this resolution. Mr. Speaker, for these reasons, I oppose H.J. Res. 30, I encourage all Members to do the same…

I offer a privileged resolution and ask for its immediate consideration. The Clerk read the resolution, as follows: H. Res. 1496 Resolved, That the House has heard with profound sorrow of the death of the Honorable A. Donald McEachin, a…

I had another speaker on the way, but he is not here yet, so I am prepared to close. I reserve the balance of my time.

Thank you, Madam Chair, and I want to thank both of our witnesses for their testimony and their lifelong commitment to equal opportunity.

I thank the ranking member for yielding to me and for her comments. It is my understanding that our staffs will continue their efforts, along with their Senate counterparts, to try to find a path forward on this issue that balances the…
