Remarks

The Subcommittee on Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies will come to order.

We are here today to markup the Fiscal Year 2024 Interior bill. I would like to welcome Full Committee Ranking Member DeLauro, Subcommittee Ranking Member Pingree, and the other Members of the Subcommittee.

The Fiscal Year 2024 Interior bill provides $35 billion in spending, which is 10 percent below the Fiscal Year 2023 level, and it includes $9.4 billion of rescissions from the Inflation Reduction Act. This brings the Subcommittee's discretionary allocation to $25.4 billion, which is $13.4 billion or 35 percent below the Fiscal Year 2023 level.

I will be honest – if you're looking for a pretty bill, this is not it. This is a hard bill, but frankly, it is a necessary bill.

Remarks

First, I want to thank Chairman Womack for his work on the Fiscal Year 2024 Financial Services bill.

As I have said before, to fully fund our national defense, veterans, and border security, other unnecessary spending must be reduced.

This bill rejects significant increases in the President's Budget Request, and instead saves billions of dollars by reclaiming unspent funds from the Inflation Reduction Act and preventing the I.R.S. from hiring tens of thousands of new agents.

This bill addresses requests from members to include important policy riders and prohibit funding.

This bill stops controversial programs and Executive Orders; regulations that harm businesses and consumers; and unnecessary climate change rules.

It also continues long-standing pro-life protections.
