Pres. Biden where am i going . Right over there. Pres. Biden again, thank you. As my mother would say, please excuse my back, i apologize. Folks. Good afternoon. Before we start id like to say a few words about the devastating wildfires that are scorching the texas up and downhandle and northwest oklahoma. Texas panhandle and northwest oklahoma. Yesterday, one of the biggest fire events in texas history, more than one million acres of texas land burned. From the start i directed my team to help protect people in the communities threatened by these fires. In response to specific requests from the state, weve already had more than 500 federal personnel here working on fire suppression. That includes depliment of 100 federal firefighters and more on the way. As well as dozens of Additional Fire engines, air tankers, small planes, helicopter, help fight the flames. And fema has already guaranteed that texas and oklahoma will be reimbursed for the cost of keeping folks safe. Were grateful f
Branch than President Biden or donald trump and that a vote for her would represent a new generation of leadership. This is 40 minutes. Its such a great crowd. Its great to be here in virginia. Thank you for showing up. So i want to start, theres a possibility that you should know we could have some protesters. So i will tell you to my protester friends, just please be respectful. Theres a time and place we can have you protest outside or anywhere else, but in the fact t we have a country to save. So it has been a whirlwind of a year. I announced i was running for president a year ago. We had 14 people in the race. I defeated a dozen of the fellas. I just have one more fella i have to catch up to. And you look at the situation of whats going on right now. You dont have to turn on the news to know that its bad. We feel it. Were 34 trillion in debt. Were having to borrow money just to make our Interest Payments. China owns some of that debt. And for the first time were spending more in I
Johnson said he supports in vitro fertilization treatment, in response to the recent ruling by the alabama supreme court. He and others discussed Border Security, including President Biden strip to the u. S. Mexico border, and efforts to keep the u. S. Government funded. Given the devastating crisis at our border, this should not be the president s second visit to the border. He should have been all over this the last three years. A important aspect to recognize is also the political play for President Biden. Brownsville can hardly be considered one of the most challenging immigration areas. It is the 29th busiest Border Patrol station this month, with far less activity than san diego, tucson and el paso sectors. The American People can see through that. Since President Biden took office, there have been 8. 7 million illegal crossings nationwide. There are eight common sense executive actions President Biden could take to address the crisis at the border that happened under his watch.

Funding until march 8 for four bills and march 22 for others. Given the differences between this years house and senate bills, we knew finding Common Ground would not be easy, but weve made progress and we need a few more weeks to finish drafting the bills. We also need to give members adequate time to review them. In the meantime, we cant afford a harmful Government Shutdown. I urge my colleagues to support this c. R. And i reserve the balance of my time. The speaker pro tempore the gentlewoman reserves. The gentleman from texas is recognized. Mr. Roy madam speaker, here we are again, kicking the can down the road and for other purposes. Buy more time to spend more money we dont have, at a time were going to eclipse more interest is, more spending on interest on our National Defense this year, and by 2026, were going to be spending a trillion dollars on interest and were going to continue to spend moneys at the nancy pelosi spending level of an omnibus bill the republicans roundly opp
