I am kind of surprised. I think the NRA would agree with both of you on this.

the untargeted, overly broad denial of all jobs because of any Federal record may actually constitute discrimination.

What is causing that? It's got to be something more than the President offering somebody something.

What would cause someone to let their children be unaccompanied except by a, whatever we call them, coyotes?

What is it that is driving that kind of flow, a spectacular rise in the numbers of children?

The humanitarian crisis is real and our agents are fully aware of the hardship many of the children have endured in search of a better life.

We have already discussed how a lack of consequences for breaking the law in the form of the Catch and Release program has encouraged a new flood of illegal immigration.

We need to follow through enforcing the laws of this Nation so that breaking the law carries consequences.

We must change the current cost-benefit analysis for illegal immigration so the rewards and incentives are less appealing.

As long as we continue to release unaccompanied minors to family and friends, this problem will not only continue, but will grow exponentially.

This legislation is groundbreaking and will increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the agency while also saving money.

It has to be more than just the President promising that you may be able to--I don't know what the argument is that's being raised.

Our former Chairman of Judiciary, James Sensenbrenner, and Zoe Lofgren and I introduced bipartisan legislation in 2006 to strengthen antitrust law to address net neutrality in part because the FCC was doing too little at that time, in my…

So whether one supports a more antitrust approach or a more regulatory approach, inaction by Congress and regulators is not an option, as potential threats to net neutrality remain present.

This brings me back to what I attempted to do and succeeded in about 15 years ago with the Fairness in Music Licensing Act.

I think that getting you all together and getting on one page will happen 2 days after the sun rises in the West.

On that I demand the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays were ordered. The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 303, nays 121, not voting 7, as follows: [Roll No. 230] YEAS--303 Aderholt Amodei Bachmann Bachus Barber…

I want to thank the House for bringing the USA FREEDOM Act to the floor today. I was the chairman of the Judiciary Committee on September 11, 2001. In the wake of that tragedy, the committee passed the PATRIOT Act with unanimous…

It is the policy of the United States to preserve and advance the successful multi-stakeholder model that governs the Internet.

Well, Director Clapper has admitted that he has lied, and I outlined the elements to convict someone of perjury.

Mr. Clapper said, "No, sir, not wittingly."

Is there any circumstance that you would prosecute a member of the Administration for lying under oath to Congress?

would it not be pointless for Congress to pass new laws limiting data collection if the Justice Department is at liberty and other officials are at liberty to lie about enforcing them?

I want to reiterate the apology that was contained in Secretary de Vallance's letter.

There are some crimes that I think are better prosecuted at the State level and using State resources, and we don't need to send the FBI out on everything that really can be better handled by local police and local prosecutors.
