The Honorable Doug Burgum
Statement by Rep. Tom McClintock on the Ilhan Omar censure resolution: Ilhan Omar’s comments regarding the assassination of Charlie Kirk are vile and contemptible. They deserve the harshest criticism of every man and woman of good will. But this disgusting and hateful speech is still speech and is protected by our First Amendment.
Vote Note: H Res 707 goes beyond the prerogative of the majority to decide what bills are taken to the floor. This resolution amends existing law to extend the authority of the President to impose tariffs until March 30. That makes this a substantive question of policy and the responsibility of individual members to pass judgment. Under the Constitution, the power to impose tariffs is a congressional power and needs to be restored to Congress.
- Nearly a billion dollars in congressional earmarks that bypass the competitive process that awards funding based on merit and not political deals.
- Billions of dollars taken from taxpayers of one community to pay for local water projects that exclusively benefit some other community (in effect robbing St. Petersburg to pay St. Paul.)
The Democrats are outraged that the largest illegal mass migration in history – that they unleashed – must now be followed by the largest repatriation in history.
