The rul provides one hour of debate equally divided and corolled by the committee on Natural Resources and provide each bill one motion to recommit the rule further provides for consideration of the antisemitic awareness act under a closed rule. With one hour of debate equally divide and controlle by the committee on judiciary. An one motion to recommit. First and foremost House Republicans stand with israel. And are horrified by the incrse in harassment on College Campuses towards israel and its allies. For years jewish clege students have faced increasg antisemitism. Since october 7 thereas been an over300 increase over 300 increase on inciden on campuses. Students are supposed to be but it has been made abundantly clear that the leaders of these institutions are not going to do anything to stop it. Instead, they are allowed allowing lgescale harassment to reign, forcing jewish students to stay home. Since these institutions refuse to protect theirtudents, it is time f congress to take action. H. R. 690 clearlyefines antisemitism according to the internationalolocaust Remembrance Alliances work working definition. This will empower uversities to take clear steps to keep jewish students safe and respond to hosti, hateful speech not protted under the first amendmt. Additionally, the bills under it protects domesti ergy production, reverses the biden mineral production in my home state of minnesota and delists the gray wolf from the endangered species list. I am proud to sta i suppo of these today. The gray wolf is an e. S. Success story. Its numbers in most of the country are thriving. To the point where they have become a menace across mu of northern minnesota. The oy reason it has not bee delisted is because there are a handful of actist groups and judges that would like to keep it listed forever rather than pushing for the radil environmental activism, we should be celebrating the fact that the e. S. A. Achieved its goal and gratefully turned management and conservation earths efforts back to the ates. Moimg, america is home madam speaker, america is home to wealth of natural rources, but this administration and my colleagues on the other side of the ais continue to wage war on domestic production. From energy in alaska to minerals i minnesota, the bills under this rule empower our domestic produrs. H. R. 6285 revses bidens decision to ban oil and Gas Development in the National Petroleum reserve in aska. Supporting Energy Independence and good paying jobs, lower fuel prices and Economic Security that comes with it. H. R. 3397 will ensure rural economies across the west maintain access to public lands for grazing, energy and meral developmen recreation and timber production. H. R. 615 upholds state Wildlife Management authority to protect agains baseless claims that traditional lead fishing tackle d ammunition should be stricted. H. R. 2925 would ensure responsible mineral developme can contie on federal lands. It unlocks mining projects across western states, returning to t past 100 years of precedence and removing uncertainty created by the rosemont decisiofrom the ninth circuit. And h. R. 3195 helps the united ates mt the rise in deplanne for criticalinute demand for Critical Minerals from across the world by unlockg access to Critical Minerals in minnesota. The Biden Administration is leaving america at a disaantage while adversaries ke china wk to expand their obal influence. We cannot let this happen. We can be both good stewas of our public lands and take advantage of the many resources they provide thank you, i reserve. The speaker pro tempore the gentlewon from minnesota reserves. The gentlewoman from new mexico is recognized. Ms. Leger fernandez madam speaker, i thank the gentlelady from minnesota, ms. Finish back, for the cust mrs. Fischbach, for the customary 30 minutes. I yield myself such time as i may consume. The speaker pro tempore without objection. Ms. Leger fernandez merica was blessedy our creator with Natural Beauty and an abundance of Natural Resources, from grazing to farmlands, to minerals, fossil fue, solar andind. So we cou fee our families and fuel our progress. But we owe the American People children and grandchildren a du to protect those resources so they are available for future genera and amecans are not lt withublic lands that have been degraded, mines that have been depleted,nd profits shipped off to Foreign Corporations. We owe a duty to tho who love the forests and rers in minnesota or the ranland i the southwest to protect i a allow its use for recreation grazing and extran. The Natural Resources bills that republicans have made in order with this re fai to protect americas blessed creation for future generations. The bills would eliminate environmental protections and increase mining corporaons ability toake public lands from the American Public for free. T me repeat that. Beuse americans may not know that right nowinin corporations, those big profitable Mining Corporation, guess what, they do not pay a dime in royalties when they take americas gold, silver, copper or precious minerals. That takes me to h. R. 2924. The mining regul
