Highlights:
On the Border: 
“Oh boy the hypocrisy is stunning…. I asked Secretary Becerra in a hearing months and months ago, what are you doing to prepare the small Texas towns for the influx of kids that are going to be coming in for their school districts, their health care systems, their law enforcement, and really there was a none- answer. They are not doing anything. Now we see that extrapolated to much wider parts of the country and people are understanding that this is a problem for local governments.

Ukraine Funding: 
“I’m glad Kyiv didn’t fall, I’m glad that President Zelensky has been able to defend his country and that his people are showing the resolve that you’d want them to show but what don’t know, and we haven’t heard from the administration is, what is your plan here?”

The Strategic Petroleum Reserve: 
“… you don’t deplete your strategic petroleum reserve in the middle of hurricane season and then cross your fingers and think it’s going to be okay. It’s not. It’s there for an emergency. This is wrong, what the Biden Administration has been doing.”
