The administration wants to ban mining of critical minerals that are needed for the manufacturing in the United States.
This legislation will release the dollars already collected for the Brand USA program to help return our travel and tourism industry back to its former glory.
Creating new, duplicative, multibillion-dollar programs and trying to outspend the Chinese Communist Party is not the solution.
I think that we can all agree that we have a major problem with our supply chains.
Time and again, the Majority's answer to virtually every pressing issues our country faces is to spend more money.
I am concerned about trying to beat the Chinese Communist Party at their own game, through expansive government subsidies.
Not only are Democrats and the Biden-Harris administration ignoring the underlying causes of the rampant supply chain and domestic manufacturing crises...
These vulnerabilities in our supply chain were exposed during the COVID-19 pandemic, and they continue to reverberate throughout our domestic industries.
Unfortunately, time and time again we see that the majority's answer to virtually every pressing issue is to spend more money.
I believe that our approach needs to be to remove barriers that impede investment in American innovation and ingenuity, and lift the regulatory burden and continue to keep taxes low.

I urge this committee not to get riddled with issues that have stalled other efforts that we have worked on, like privacy.
It was an important reminder this is an action this subcommittee can work together on.
My hope is that the Board will resist the urge to become distracted with other priorities and focus on the main task at hand: demonstrating it can color inside the lines by focusing on investigations.
I believe it's important that we focus on the mission of this Board, the Chemical Safety Board.
Let me be clear: Waiting more than 5 years to close out these timely and important investigations simply is not acceptable.
