I am very concerned about Democrats' efforts to politicize the credit rating process.

Bond rating agencies play an essential role in our financial markets.

This bill is nothing more than another attempt by Democrats to insert their leftist ideology into another aspect of the financial market.

The truth is that there are plenty of ways to improve the Community Development Block Grant Disaster Relief Program.

Government is not the solution to our problems. Government is the problem.

I see increased participation in our capital markets as a positive development for wealth creation.

Increased participation by retail is a positive development. Let's not regulate or legislate that progress away.

Government can and must provide opportunity, not smother it; foster productivity, not stifle it.

The out-of-control spending proposed by President Biden will leave a mess that our children and grandchildren will have to clean up and pay for.

We should all respect and honor Dr. Seuss and forget this cancel culture nonsense.

Let`s not attempt to steal knowledge of our nation`s history from our children like the Grinch attempted to steal Christmas.

I would agree. And I would add that 27 percent of this bill, over $510 billion goes to State and local governments. So the taxpayers of my State of West Virginia and your State of Texas and other States are literally bailing out States…

There are some who promote various levels of government regulation. There are some who want to go all the way to socialism, and some who believe in free markets and capitalism, which is where I line up.

I don't think this ever should have been created and Dodd-Frank was a mistake, but I encourage you to be fair to people.

There are a lot of patriotic Americans who love this country, who have built businesses and treat their employees very well.

Everybody is innocent until proven guilty in this country--not guilty until proven innocent.

There is a new movement in this country of socialism, some of my colleagues on the other side of the aisle are socialists.

Actually, Mr. Speaker, I have a point of clarification for the chairman. Is this bill affecting all furloughed Federal workers, anyone furloughed, or anyone affected by the furlough in any way? Any consumer, any American that is affected…

I have been working on my, with my staff, on legislation to support community banks, who are, frankly, suffering under these Basel III absurd treatment of these assets.
