                     AMERICAN PEOPLE DESERVE BETTER

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from 
California (Mr.  Robert Garcia) for 5 minutes.
  Mr. ROBERT GARCIA of California. Mr. Speaker, last week we learned 
that the Jared Kushner grift continues to grow across the globe.
  We already know that Donald Trump put his unqualified son-in-law, 
Jared Kushner, in charge of Middle East policy in the White House. We 
also know that Jared intervened and negotiated a $110 billion arms deal 
with Saudi Arabia and pushed for Donald Trump's first state visit to be 
in Saudi Arabia, a huge change of policy and a huge gift to this 
foreign government.
  We also know that months after Jared left the White House, the Saudi 
Prince went against his own advisers and gave $2 billion to Jared 
Kushner's

hedge fund. Let's not forget that during the Trump Presidency, receipts 
also show that at least $7.8 million in foreign cash went directly to 
Donald Trump's businesses.
  Now, Jared is pushing new deals in Albania and Serbia, trading on the 
connections he made during his White House service. The Trump crime 
family grift never stops. I have said it before and I will say it 
again. It is time for investigations. This kind of influence peddling 
harms our national security.
  Instead of wasting time on a sham impeachment against President 
Biden, we should be focused on stopping the real corruption that has 
been committed by the Trump family. The American people deserve better.
