What Riley M. Moore said, and what was done

“Mr. Chair, I rise in support of this legislation, and I thank Chairman Cole and Chairman Diaz-Balart for their leadership on this bill. This bill reinforces the important work we have championed to combat the persecution of Christians in Nigeria where nearly 100,000 Christians have been killed since 2009.”

“Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of my bill, H.R. 1181, the Protecting Privacy in Purchases Act. My bill preserves two fundamental rights: the right to privacy and the right to bear arms.”

“Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment that in my view would correct what had taken place in the Agriculture Committee. There was an amendment to eliminate dog racing, greyhound racing specifically, in the United States.”

“Mr. Speaker, I am listening to the other side of the aisle right now, and I want you to know what you are hearing right now is desperation.”

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor a remarkable West Virginian, devoted public servant, and a faithful Christian, my friend, the Honorable Justice Tim Armstead. Justice Armstead dedicated his life to serving the people of West Virginia with unwavering integrity, conviction, and grace.”

“Madam Speaker, I would like to mention that Gavin Newsom signed a bill into law recently not to notify parents. Administrators and schoolteachers don't notify parents that their kids are considering a transition.”

“Madam Speaker, I rise in strong support of this legislation. I thank Congresswoman Greene for bringing this bill up for debate here on the floor. I am a proud original cosponsor of this legislation.”

“Mr. Speaker, I also rise in strong support of this resolution. I can't believe I am standing here and talking about this. I really can't. The tragic nature of this is unfathomable.”

“Madam Speaker, baseload energy in this country is absolutely quantified and defined by natural gas, nuclear, and coal. That is baseload energy in this country. The reason green energy was ever affordable or cheaper is because everybody in America is subsidizing it right now with their tax dollars.”

“Mr. Speaker, today, I rise to speak as a witness to the power of prayer. Last week, my constituent, Andrew Wolfe, was attacked by an Islamic terrorist here in Washington, D.C.”

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to support the Senate amendment to H.R. 5371, which includes full funding for the legislative branch. I am honored to serve as the vice chairman of the Legislative Branch Subcommittee, and I am grateful to Chairman Valadao for his leadership on that committee.”

“Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Jack) for yielding. Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of the CLARITY Act, the GENIUS Act, and the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act.”

“Mr. Speaker, digital assets are not some future concept. They are already a key part of our financial system, and Washington needs to start acting like it. Nearly one in three Americans have used them in some form, and we cannot afford to let our adversaries, especially the Chinese Communist Party, write rules for this new financial frontier as we sit on the sidelines.”

“Mr. Speaker, as chairman of the RSC Rescissions Task Force, I am proud to support this bill to codify the DOGE cuts. The American people know waste, fraud, and abuse when they see it.”

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life of a true Mountaineer, former West Virginia delegate and minority leader in our house, Doug Skaff. Doug tragically and unexpectedly passed away yesterday, leaving behind three beautiful children and his wife, Melisa.”

“Mr. Speaker, I rise in favor of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that delivers on President Trump's promise to make America great again. The bill makes America energy dominant again by repealing the Democrats' disastrous green new scam, expediting permitting, and unleashing all of the below energy--that is the ground--coal, oil, and natural gas.”

“Mr. Speaker, today, I rise to address a grave and urgent crisis, the rampant persecution of Christians in Africa and the Middle East. Across these regions, our brothers and sisters in faith experience violence, displacement, and death for their belief in our Lord Jesus Christ.”

“Mr. Speaker, last week we celebrated Catholic Schools week, so today I rise to recognize the 24 phenomenal Catholic schools across our state of West Virginia. Rooted in a shared Catholic faith, and committed to excellence, these schools consistently provide a high quality, Christ-centered education to Catholic and non-Catholic families across the Mountain State.”
