mr. moran: before i reserve, mr.let the gentleman from new york know that we have no further speakers and i am prepared to close. mr. nadler: same with me. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from new york is recognized. mr. nadler: mr. speaker, i grant myself all mo tempore: without objection. mr. nadler: mr. speaker, we need to work together to address our broken immigration system. enforcement alone cannot fix it. we know this because that approach has largely failed for three decades. we need to update our immigration system so that it meets the needs of our country. we need a balanced, bipartisan approach that expands lawful pathways. this will help relieve pressure on the border and allow people to come to this country in an orderly and efficient way. but this resolution will accomplish none of that. instead of reaching across the aisle in search of meaningful solutions, this resolution uses empty rhetoric to score cheap political points. this resolution doesn't claim to accomplish anything for immigration r

mr. moran: i yield to the gentleman from texas, mr.ounce president biden's open border policies thaton, i repeat our country through our southern border. i wonder how many of my liberal friends across the aisle have actually even bng> the border. let us be clear, this is a crisis of biden's making. he has not been to the border. nor has vice president harris been to the border. they've been to a parking lot in el paso, texas, and that's as good as they can do. so for three years biden has ignored■z calls to the american people to secure the border and protect american lives. this administration's failed policies have allowed over eight million illegal immigrants to cross into country, forcing my home state of texas to take matters into their own hands, only to be attacked by biden's out of reach be sued forro texans. it's time for president biden and his administration are held accountable for the lack of action at our southern border. from my very f!pirst day, i have fought against the radical left's open border and amnesty policies,

mr. moran: thank you mr. speaker. more jobs, better pay and a stronger economy.hat's the result when taxes are low. i rise today in support of extending the pro growth tax provisions of the tax cuts and jobs act of 2017 that are critical to families and businesses. items like immediate r&d expensing and allowing for full bonus depreciation in a year in which those expenses were incurred. through provisions like these the tax cut and jobs act through 2017 ushered in a competitive tax code that encouraged companies to invest in american jobs and served as a catalyst for innovation nationwide. these provisions lifted more than six million people out of poverty, grew wages by 4.9% and spurred american innovation to new heights. and these pro business and pro-family tax provisions will play a vital role in advancing the american economy boosting wages and maintaining u.s. competitiveness worldwide into the future but only if we make them permanent. unfortunately, allowing these pro growth tax provisions to expire or remain expired would be devastating to our economy.

. >> i yield three minutes to my colleague from texas mr. moran. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from texas has three minutes. he's recognized. mr. moran: thank you, mr. speaker. i rise today in support of this bill. this act is one step in the reform process tourending power back to the hands of congress and ensure the proper use of every dollar that comes into the treasury. this bill will help to ensure the damages owed to victims of wrongdoing actually reach them rather than being used to support organizations that are friends of the executive branch. regardless of the party. for those who don't know, settlement slush funds result when defendants set well government agencies and based on the terms of that settlement, direct the settlement proceeds to politically favored third parties instead of victims or the u.s. treasury for use in correcting the actual wrongdoing. in these cases the victims are often -- often have little to no say in how the settlement will be structure and have no redress when the government directs these monetary set
