Glenn Grothman

I find kind of discriminatory and offensive.

I would challenge those workshops that if they support their business model and they have a happy workforce, to find a way to pay minimum wage, just as we have done in our business operations, successfully.

just last year, Representative Grothman introduced a bill that would expand the coverage of the AEDA.

I would think it is somewhat obvious that it is hard to put together a work plan in which you can take somebody like that and make money while paying them, you know, $4-500 a week.

I am very concerned that in your testimony you say that all too many current certificate holders will not take that approach under their own volition.

First of all, I would like to thank President Trump for earlier today, one more time, bringing the issue of immigration to the forefront. I think President Trump's speech was an interesting speech and provided a nice starting point for the…

Thank you. Mr. Ezell, I kind of want to talk to just in general an overview because I think the hearing today touches not just on a particular drug but things across the board.

It's frustrating when people in that business who should be, above all, committed to making sure every dime is well spent, seem to view things as an opportunity to make ridiculously huge profits.

It is again and again amazing the degree to which we seem to shovel money out of this city without regard to the fact that we're driving people deeper into debt.

I wish I could keep track of all the hearings I have spent before this.

Is there any program out there that you can say, at least say 70 percent of the people who go through this program do not relapse within five years?

So, there is no program, or you just do not know.

I really appreciate what you are doing, what the whole administration is doing and try to get a handle on things.

My fear is, just so you are aware insofar as you have any flexibility, I have run into people who have lost their jobs.

The idea that someday they could lose their jobs just scares me.

Okay, now I would like to switch gears entirely to dual enrollment programs and we have got to do what we can to get people in the world of work without excessive student loan debt.

I think it bothers me that so many people got out of our school systems and come to see me as a Congressman to help improve their local school districts and they have, first of all, no respect for our constitution and the authority the…

I mean I am old enough to remember--just as I remember people who wanted the United States to lose in Viet Nam, I am old enough to remember experts being quoted in Newsweek or Time in the 1970's about global cooling.

I have with me here an article that appeared in the Financial Post a couple years ago strongly questioning your 97 percent figure.

I am old enough to remember tens of thousands of people marching 'Ho, Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh,' who clearly wanted victory for the Atheistic Totalitarians who lived in North Viet Nam.

I mean that accountant's license should be taken.

Dual enrollment is a tremendous thing. It allows people to get through college quicker.

I think the problem is a lot of guidance counselors... are almost making things worse.

I am not sure it is the Federal Government's role, but I do see in my area the more on the ball school districts are beginning to do things, getting people acquainted with these skills in high school.

They need some regulation there. There is where you are going to need competence.
