How much richer will Elon get with an FAA contract to another one of his companies? My ELON MUSK Act would stop this blatant corruption.

⁦@SpeakerJohnson, get control of your caucus before we have to take other actions. This is demeaning & embarrassing.

No one should have the ability to direct funds towards their personal interest if they are working for the federal government.

You can't just again be number one on the planet for school shootings, for mass shootings, and not see that as a problem.

We need to deal with guns. We need to stand up to gun manufacturers and the Washington gun lobby.

Look, we just have too many of these. This is a uniquely United States problem, other countries don't have this type of mass shootings. I think it's been 480 mass shootings this year alone, over 80 in schools. That's completely…

You heard from our Democratic leader. Democrats strongly oppose this amendment, and I yield back the balance of my time.

The amendment does nothing, and we oppose it. I yield back the balance of my time.

The amendment doesn't do anything. It simply says funds in the bill can't be used to prevent voluntary disclosures. The administration is already doing this. Mr. Chair, I reserve the balance of my time.

I stand with the bipartisan statesmen who have argued against this amendment. I oppose the amendment, and I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Florida (Mr…

Let us be clear, voucher programs overwhelmingly subsidize kids who are already in private schools.

The title of today's hearing School Choice, Expanding Educational Freedom for all is somewhat ironic because the data of these choice programs shows these programs drain resources from public schools to fund private and religious schools.
