now i will yield to representative. >> thank you, ansari. and good morning. and echo sentiments and say as representative of the baltimore region, how grateful i am that congress without hesitation moved and acted to go to the francis scott key bridge. we are not just big in size, one of the largest in history but big in ideas and big in energy. we have extremely talented members that come from all walks of life and bring that experience to the work before us. the priorities of this class are the priorities of the american people. we can't the g.s.e. to get stuff done and ready to get stuff done to pass commonsense legislation whether making health care or protecting our environment. we are ready to work with our colleagues on the other side of the aisle, too. there is plenty of opportunity to find common ground. we can compromise without compromising our values. republican leadership has not included democratic freshman on the bills we have taken action. no bill hearings, no markups, nothing to address our shared goals of lowering the cost of living, creatin

ansari. ans ans mr. speaker, i rise -- >> this bill is an egregious attack onioning women and girls. everyone in this room knows that this legislation has the power to threaten the physical and mental safety of minors. ms. ansari: this is literally why we have the ncaa. this bill is textbook government overreach meant to fuel division. further, this bill provides no enforcement guidelines, insinuating that republicans are just fine with subjecting young women and girls to invasive, humiliating medical examinations and physical inspections. this is an attack on the mental and sexual safety of all girls in this country, as young as kindergarten. everyone deserves to have the opportunity to learn the camaraderie and life lessons that come with playing sports. i'm a strong no on this legislation because i believe we should be making our children safer, not empowering adult strangers to investigate their most private physicality. congress needs to get back to our jobs, lower costs for everyday families and wo
