“While our small businesses work to get back on their feet and employees back on payroll, the last thing they should be worried about is paying taxes on the assistance they receive. Taxing the aid is counterproductive to the intent of this program and an unnecessary hurdle to bring our Main Street businesses back.”

“With nearly a fifth of Florida’s human trafficking victims being children, we need to empower our educators and administrators to understand the signs and protect our students. The safety of our children is a top priority in our education system and this legislation will protect precious lives by giving vulnerable children the support systems they need.”

“Since the Chinese Communist Party routinely uses technology to invasively monitor their citizens, there is no reason to think that they would not use the same technology to spy on Americans. We have already seen their true colors with the CCP’s handling of COVID-19, so let’s not give them another means to manipulate America’s safety and security.”

“The Logan Act is just another tool in the deep state’s belt to manipulate the justice system to serve their political agendas. This law has never been used in the history of our country until the dishonest and politicized FBI used it to try and take down a decorated public servant and attack President Trump’s Administration. It should be repealed immediately to prevent another breakdown in justice like this tragedy.”

“The World Health Organization was aware of this pandemic early on and chose to parrot Communist China’s propaganda rather than notifying the world of this imminent public health threat. There needs to be a full and thorough investigation into their management of this pandemic and a complete audit of their leadership.”

“We have a responsibility to ensure that local chambers of commerce and nonprofits are empowered to fill their important role in our small business communities as they have before the COVID-19 pandemic. This bipartisan legislation will help small business owners address their unique problems with local resources and provide a support system that will continue to serve our communities long after this crisis subsides.”

“The Paycheck Protection Program is vital to the continuation of many small businesses across the country. Corporations with alternative financing mechanisms took the loans first, and as a result, honest businesses are having to shut their doors. They should return this money and the federal government should create guidance to prevent this from happening again.”

“Our elections should be held to the highest ethical standards and this loophole only serves to invite corruption into the process. We should be serving the people as elected officials, not lining our own pockets. This legislation will add more protections for American campaign dollars and prevent candidates from violating the trust of the public.”

“The FBI documents show an abuse of our intelligence and legal systems to set up General Flynn, a decorated patriot who served with distinction. This deep state stunt was designed to attack the Administration and President Trump from the very beginning – Maloney and Nadler need to call Comey to testify under oath and explain this dangerous breakdown in our justice institutions.”

“Dr. Li Wenliang bravely risked his safety to warn the public about COVID-19 despite the punishment he faced from the Communist Chinese government for speaking up. We should honor Dr. Wenliang with the Congressional Gold Medal to recognize his bravery and global service.”

“With thousands of American businesses struggling as a result of this pandemic and questions raised about the true origin of the virus, we should not be using any taxpayer money to fund the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Their blatant disinformation surrounding the virus and potential mishandling of biohazardous materials demands strong Congressional oversight to prevent a tragedy like this from ever happening again.”

“This is just another drop in the bucket for the United Nations’ failure to uphold the fundamental values of human rights. The Chinese Communist Party openly violates freedoms of belief, expression and privacy and now the United Nations expects them to prosecute the violations they themselves perpetuate – this dishonest attempt to excuse China’s abhorrent behavior should have us all rethinking our decision to fund this organization.”
