Thank you for all you're doing for the Ukrainian people.

600,000 Americans are dead.

Well, certainly, the opioid crisis began with the presidency of Joe Biden, right? I mean, President Biden, we have to lay this squarely at his feet.

It is just not right that the super-rich are evading their taxes while the average American pays their fair share.

I strongly reject that notion.

We do have a kind of a tension or a balance in our public schools and, by the way, our public universities too, between individual freedom and democracy.

We are going to advance the First Amendment values that all of us hold dear, if we can step a little bit beyond our own sense of grievance.

It is very easy to feel that your group is somehow being unfairly targeted and made a victim.

I thank my good friend from Ohio for his leadership. He is the former President of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, as well, and he has provided unwavering support for America's leadership in this alliance and for the alliance itself. And…

How can this Administration continue to argue that any weapon system for Ukraine is escalatory or provocative?

The People's Republic of China should take note, it must be held accountable for its many violations of sovereignty and international law in the Himalayas, the South China Sea, the East China Sea.

And Putin and all members of his criminal regime that bear responsibility for his horrifying assault on an independent and peaceful nature and should suffer the consequences of their actions.

The House of Representatives in an overwhelming bipartisan vote voted for a resolution calling on NATO as part of that strategic concept to create a center for democratic resilience within NATO itself.

We hope that the PRC understands that any such action would see a response from the international community, not just from the United States.

The Chinese Communist Party and the PRC has spent years promoting the lie that Taiwan is part of the PRC which it is absolutely not part of China nor has it ever been.

Soon I will be introducing the Taiwan Deterrence Act to stand up a security assistance program for Taiwan.

Our response to the CCP threat needs less talk and more action.

A CCP controlled Taiwan would be an unprecedented blow to our economic and national security.

But the CCP is undermining this hard-won freedom and prosperity.

American's legacy in the Indo-Pacific is freedom and prosperity.

Today, the Chinese Communist Party is trying to dominate the region and push the U.S. military out through military expansion and debt trap diplomacy.

I have been championing trying to replace the vehicle fleet.

Anyone who owns an electric vehicle will tell you that the maintenance costs to, for an EV are lower than what they paid or would pay for a gasoline-or diesel-fueled vehicle.

I am very worried about the assumptions that went in or didn't go in to the environmental report that the Postal Service came up with, gasoline being one of them.

It is almost twice what they are assuming already.
