I do not think one penny of any fund should ever go to any January 6 insurrectionist that was in the Capitol on January 6, 2021 … I want to be very clear … I clearly think Congress needs to have an oversight role in this before I can sign…

in addition, it provides greater flexibility for cities and towns across the country to utilize HOME dollars to promote homeownership. Sometimes it is as easy as extending the wastewater and the water system another 15 blocks. Think how…

I rise today to recognize Papillion, Nebraska's, Mayor David Black, as a paragon of public service and remarkable stewardship. Through more than two decades of service to the people of Papillion, Mayor Black helped to guide the city into…

first I thank the gentlewoman from Indiana (Mrs. Houchin), my friend, for her leadership on this very important issue. It has been an absolute pleasure working with her on this bill, which makes manufactured housing less expensive and more…

There is no way that members of the House Republican conference are going to do a clean extension.

The examination created by this bill is meant to strike a balance between rigorously testing for sophistication and not being set to such a difficult standard that even an intelligent investor could not pass it. Mr. Chair, I urge my…

I strongly support the INVEST Act, and I commend Congresswoman Ann Wagner and Congressman Greg Meeks for their hard work on this bipartisan project. This is how Congress is supposed to work. The INVEST Act will expand access to capital for…

I rise today as Constitution Day approaches. The assassination of Charlie Kirk is a watershed moment for free speech. Charlie made a name for himself exercising his First Amendment rights. He was shot answering a question from a liberal…

I don’t regret it at all.
