roby: mr. chairman, i rise today to offer a commonsense amendment that would allow the court rather than the majority in the house to decide the fate of the proposed rules. in february of this year, h.h.s. issued a new rule that would restrict family planning grants from going to entities that are not physically and financially separated from abortion providers. a series of court injunctions from frozen these rule changes and hundreds of planned parenthood clinics are receiving federal tax dollars. americans have made it clear time and time again that they don't want their tax dollars paying for abortions. and this rule, which prevents any tax dollars from going to any abortion providing facility is going through the constitutional channels of our judicial process. unfortunately, lawmakers here in the house have chosen to tie the hands of h.h.s. through legislation by effectively stating that the h.h.s. secretary may only act in accordance with regulations and instructions established before ja

accordingly, i'm fully supportive of representative roby's amendment that we will debate this afternoon to strike the language that would halt this important rule and the other amendments that will restore pro-life policies to this legislation. i encourage all of my colleagues to support these provisions. yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves. the gentlewoman from california is recognized. mrs. torres: mr. speaker, it is iring to hear from so many sex-starved males on this floor talk about a women's right to choose. -- speaker, the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from georgia recognized. mr. woodall: mr. speaker, i would like to ask my friend if she would like to change her last statement. mrs. torres: mr. speaker, if it pleases my colleagues on the other side, i will withdraw my statement about sex-starved ales on the floor. mr. woodall: mr. speaker. does the gentlewoman from ask unanimous consent to withdraw the statement? mrs. torres: i will agree to withdraw my statement regarding -- the speaker pro tempore: is there objection? mr. wood

they want to do more, but they are not allowed to just go roby and do their own sort of additional operation. you have the top republican on the homeland security committee who is surprised to find out that reporters can't get access to thieves facilities. is there anything congress can bring to bear on the agency said they allow reporters to see what is going on? interesting.uld be i have not been at a border patrol facility in a year now, and i think i have been on 12 trips since february. it is really border patrols therit to have media in e. it is not just one border patrol station like the one in el paso that was reported to be severely overcrowded. a hundred holding stations on the southern border, all overcrowded. they are not that severe, but some of them are very overcrowded and not sanitary. if the public can see that, it might give congress a little more push to get more funding. rogerscongressman expressed his hopes that president trump's actions will spur congress to have an immigration debate. congress has been circling around immigration for years now. is there anything that w

congresswoman roby: thank you, is to. this is for all of you. judges oversee cases with the most egregious offenders in our criminal justice system and the u.s. marshals service has said posting financial disclosures online would identify family, locations, and other information making judges and justices vulnerable to attack. how can we appropriately mitigate the danger these disclosures might create? go down the line. judicial, thet: safety of our judges is of paramount importance. read actions and coming up with a list of structures and guidelines for those reductions would alleviate that problem. tend to agree. an organization that advocates for transparency without being an organization that advocates for greater security. they go hand in hand. there is a way to work with the supreme court police and the u.s. marshals service. given the fact that the supreme court has already said in a case that financial disclosure are constitutional and chief justice rehnquist has said he is ok with them being posted online come i think we have an opportu

you could be pro-choice, you could be for roby way and still think it's weird to see a presidential candidateto taxpayer-funded abortions. what is that about? a >> it's a night full of pandering. whether it was speaking spanish it's not the language used, it' what you're saying. it'sre the pandering, the presumption that their own base is shallow and can be insulted and won't notice. this is the problem. the pandering matters because then you don't need to tetalk about the details on the issues. i think this is why one of the many reasons why president trum will win again in 2020. a whole host of problems the democrats have varied he got th terminology wrong, but the fac is that's not even an issue. if you were born a woman and yo identify as a man and you have not had the surgery, if you'd you not gone through the whole transgender surgery you can get pregnant and go and have an abortion prior nobody's going t ask you or care how you identif if you're in that medical dynamic. the other problem is, the political correctness of this this has been reported by the sun and england now, the public
