lee. lee announced he will be signing tennessee's sweeping new anti-lgbtq bills, which, among other things will ban gender-affirming treatment for transgender youth. come on. transgender or not, all teens struggle with figuring out relationship to their bodies. you think unilever had grown adults in mind when they made axe body spray in golden mango? you know their motto. "mom, i did shower!" tennessee isn't just coming for the young ones. the governor has said he'd sign a bill that would restrict drag shows. yes, he wants to severely limit drag. our founding fathers did not create this country so men could wear frilly shirts, silk stockings, and powdered wigs! >> that's good. >> stephen: specifically, the bill criminalizes "adult-oriented" performances by "male or female impersonators." which means the citizens of tennessee will finally be safe from reba mcentire! oh, yes. reba is exposing our children to tempting buckets of breasts and thighs. to defend targeting the lgbtq community, governor leee bill would protect children from being "potentially exposed to sexualized entertainment." okay, but "sexualized" is in the eye of the beholder. how are you going to control that? "it's really important that none of their elementary school teachers wear open-toed sandals and have a really long middle toe, almost like a finger? real graceful. high arch. that would be wrong. i'll send you some photos." plus, this whole stupid bill is redundant, because tennessee already bans obscenity in front of minors. it was landmark legislation. it's why the great smoky mountains had to put on a bra. even, oh, yeah. even tennessee republicans are confused by this bill. when it was being discussed in the state legislature, one representative raised an important question. >> if we're having a professional wrestling show at a county fair, and some promotion decides to have a bra and panties match, is that, you know, potentially a crime? >> stephen: "and while we'ren the subject, what about, say, if som

lee. lee: we know number one concern a economy joe biden said contained everything is going to be fine my predecessor rolled back regulation we need more regulation i think led to more uncertainty people wondering what is going to happen. maria: blaming trump again. leesure folks right now? >> well maria, the fact of the matter is that is a red hrg, the dodd-frank proposal passed in 2018, was 63 votes means 18, 17 democrats supporting it the legislation you will see collateral that is the regulators for banks over 100 billion dollars had all the power, the supervision they needed they simply fell asleep at the wheel cannot tell last time they had supervisors in it i asked to heads of three other agencies no one can answer simple questions, so if regulatory failure is a challenge we have a strong resilient system but today there are questions, simply because the biden economy plus the biden regulators leads to failures in the system. maria: but there is also all misinformation you know, he tells us red when it is blue he tells us that it is raining when it is sunny i mean just incredible, the amount of misinformation coming out of this white house, is there anything you can do to -- to -- >> make sure we we've got honesty here says economy great ameri

lee, for five minutes. mrs. lee: thank you, madam speaker. i rise today to shed light on a critical dilemma in the fight to address the worst drought facing the american west in 12 centuries. right now water managers are doing everything they can to address and respond to the ongoing western water crisis. but at the same time, they cannot always readily access the critical data they need to measure water loss, respond effectively, and keep more water in lake meade for nevadans. i've said it before and i'll say it again -- we can't manage what we cannot measure. nevada's plentiful sunshine is one of our state's greatest assets. it makes our state a top destination for outdoor recreation. the solar center of our transition to clean energy. but it's also a key driver in evapo throughout nevada and across the western part of the country. the situation at lake meade and across the west remains dire. we need to take action now. the future of our water supplies depends on us. getting information into the hands into people who are tackling it on the ground every day. that's why i'm introducing the bipartisan, bicameral act to formally establish to fill the biggest data gap in water management by making critical e.t. data more accessible. it will allow everyone, from water managers and experts like scientists, academics, and advocacy organizations, to farmers and ranchers, to lite literally anyone with internet access, it's that accessible. there's no time to waste in protecting our most precious resource, and it's time to start better measuring, managing, and planning to protect nevada's future. i rise today on international women's day as a woman in congress who's served not one, not two, but three terms in this house, where every single time we have shattered the record for the largest number of women serving in this body. a woman's place is in this house, and i am honored to serve alongside such strong trailblazers who are setting the stage for the next generation of girls who will undoubtedly continue to shatter this glass ceiling. but we're not there yet. while women make up the largest voting block in the united states of america, we are still a minority here in the people's house. and that's why i tell every little girl i meet crisscrossing southern nevada to dream big and run for something. just over 100 years ago, we didn't have the right to vote in this country, and that's why so many of the laws and flaws of our systems are stacked against us. whether that's equal pay for equal work, affordable childcare, adequate health care coverage for mothers, and equitable access for women of color who continue to face dis disproportionately high -- dispro disproportionately high birth mortality rates. the supreme court obliterated our rights less than a year ago and overturning 50 years of roe. 50 years of a woman's right tos choo. in states -- to choose. in states across this country, the right to an abortion is under attack. even in cases of rape, incest, and the health of a mother. and in this house, there are extreme proposals set -- that set us all back with a national ban on national abortion. but we will not go back and we will not be intimidated. i am proud to be from the battle-born state, home of the -- of a majority woman delegation in congress, home of a majority woman in the state supreme court, and home of the first woman majority state legislature. that is worth celebrating today. that is the model for this house, by, for, and of the people. and this is what i hope will inspire that next generation of girls to run, win, and lead our country forward. and with that i yield. the speaker pro tempore: the chair recognizes the gentlewoman from oregon, ms. hoyle, for five minutes. ms. hoyle: madam speaker, i ask for unanimous consent to revise and extend my remarks and include extraneous material. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman is recognized. ms. hoyle: thank you. in my district, the average per capita income is $32,000 a year. that's six counties from lincoln county down the coast of oregon to curry county and the california border. over 160,000 seniors in my district rely on social security for retirement. my scleegs across the -- my colleagues across the aisle is approaching social security as it's an unearned handout and this is beyond offensive. this is not what it was meant to do. this is not what it was meant to be. people paid into this system for their whole lives. that's the promise of our social security program. right now we only tax income up to $160,000 a year to fund social security. millionaires and billionaires who get their income from investments instead of earning a paycheck through hard work are not paying their fair share into social security at all. and we must change that system. by finally requiring that the wealthiest americans pay into social security at the same rate as nurses and firefighters across the country, we can expand benefits, not cut them. my bill, the social security expansion act, which i introduced with jan schakowsky and senator bernie sanders, would allow us to increase the social security benefits for everyone by $200 a month and help account for the inflation that has impacted many seniors in my district and across this country. this bill would also extend the solvency of this critical program for the next 75 years. i'm not in congress to protect billionaires. i'm here to make sure those people who have paid into the system for their whole lives, who worked so hard, including our fishermen, electricians, school teachers can retire with dignity. and we can welcome a new generation of the workforce as they retire. it's our responsibility to make sure that social security can be successful into the future, and i'm proud to have a bill that helps protect that. i yield back the balance of my time. thank you, madam speaker. the speaker pro tempore: the chair recognizes the gentlewoman from texas, ms. jackson lee, for five minutes. ms. jackson lee: madam chair, i ask unanimous consent to address the house. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman is recognized. ms. jackson lee: i rise today to celebrate the international day of women and to recognize that there are many faiths in this nation. but in some of our faith, the book of proverbs talks about the virtuous woman. i'd like to emphasize that theme in its broadness. the virtueness of women across the land and around the world. to be able to acknowledge the very unique and specific duties and responsibilities and vulnerabilities that women have and to celebrate them in every aspect of life. today in america as women get up and work in blue-collar jobs, hourly wages, from waitresses to bus drivers, to working in the building trades, to being on jobs that barely make ends meet, others tough but giving them a better way of life, they have never refused their assignment. they are the caretakers. they're the loving moms that little ones grab the

lee: ok. now -- secretary mayorkas: i have something to say about parole. senator lee: i want to talk about this first. in your exchange with one of my colleagues, i think it was senator graham earlier, you seemed to concede for purposes of discussion that most asylum applicants don't get in. and the number is something like nine out of 10 don't get in. i know it varies from country to country. it's more or less nine out of 10 or some large number, some large percentage of asylum applicants may not be eligible to come in, is that right? secretary mayorkas: that's correct. the number who qualify under the initial threshold of credible fear is larger than the number of individuals who actually ultimately succeed in their final asylum adjudication. senator lee: all right. in fact, federal law -- secretary mayorkas: that's purposeful by design of the statutory framework. senator lee: under 8 u.s.c. section 1225-b-1, an alien awaiting an asylum determination, ruling on his or her asylum application is subject to mandatory detention. it says that the alien shall be detained pending a final determination of credible fear of persecution and found to not have such fear until removed. and yet, you are anot current -- you're not currently detaining all asylum applicants, are you? secretary mayorkas: senator, i believe this very issue is the subject of ongoing litigation. i will only say this, therefore, that the department of homeland security, specifically immigration and customs enforcement, has never had the detention capacity to detain every asylum seeker. senator lee: i'm not asking whether you have the detention capacity more than they have in the past. i'm asking, what is supposed to happen? the truth is under the statutory provision i just
