That is why I applaud the pro-work policies of the Biden Administration.

And is it further your testimony, if I heard you correctly, independent of your own company, though your experience would mirror this, that there is actually compiled data empirically demonstrating that PLA projects actually tend to come…

And just to be clear about your testimony here today, it is your testimony that your company, going back to 1901, has, in fact, used PLAs as an effective tool successfully, and you have found it to be a felicitous relationship facilitating…

Certainly that was my experience. I mean, I literally had the experience of the Silver Line.

PLAs promote worker safety and guarantee a well-trained, highly-skilled workforce.

I would ask unanimous consent to enter into the record the letter from the Association of Union Constructors and more than 1,700 members in support of project labor agreements.

President Biden's infrastructure investments are revitalizing and creating local jobs in every congressional district.

I have seen firsthand in my district what happens when project labor agreements are excluded from construction projects.

I thank my friend for yielding. Mr. Speaker, if you gave truth serum to my colleagues on the other side of the aisle, I am pretty sure they would admit they would rather not be here today doing this. They would admit that Attorney General…

if we did that it's your testimony--I don't want to put words in your mouth--that it would actually make Americans less safe

The real purpose of the executive order was to provide the former President with the ability to dismiss, at start, at least 50,000 dedicated civil servants.

If we abolish it would that make it easier for criminal cartels to traffic firearms in this country?

So stipulated, but I am sort of making a different point.

that was Members of Congress working on that.

China remains the most active and persistent cyberthreat to U.S. Government, private sector, and critical infrastructure networks.

It is very dangerous to rely on sources like that.

The Chinese Communist Party poses a significant threat to the safety and economic prosperity of the United States.

H.R. 8334 is just one more frivolous attempt by Republicans to further demonize immigrants and stoke fears about migrants without actually doing anything.

I want to go back to the danger of relying on Russian and China sources because they have an active agenda of insinuating.
