Our point and our ask at this point is to continue to fund those programs, encourage communities to reach out and engage.

Mr. Chairman, I have no doubt of your dedication, believe me. I want that on the record clear as day.

Mr. Speaker, I would like to also add my condolences to the Senator's family. I remember, as a young boy growing up interested in politics, that I was always struck by his thoughtfulness, the demeanor in which he held himself in an era…

I strongly support H.R. 9 to recommit us to leadership and to climate action and to doing it right now.

These types of agreements should be agreed to in a transparent manner that follows the Constitution and the law.

I admire his courage greatly, but we cannot allow the potential brutish actions of Nicolas Maduro to dictate American foreign policy decisions.

U.S. military action with respect to Venezuela would be illegal and ill-advised.

I think is pure politics and it is below the bipartisanship of this committee.

I urge my colleagues to support this resolution and to continue to support funding for programs like the UNFPA.

This legislation passed our committee and the House last Congress and I am pleased that we are considering it again today.

I strongly support all of these bipartisan bills and resolutions in this package.

Rather than threaten war, the United States must continue to work with the Lima Group, Europe, and the international community to use diplomatic and economic tools to pressure Maduro.

The U.S. tourism industry would suffer if President Trump follows through on his ill-advised desire to close the U.S.-Mexico border.

This should not be a partisan issue.

I think it was wrong. Every nation in the world has signed on to this agreement.

I would like to invite my Republican colleagues to join the bipartisan Climate Solutions Caucus.

It is consequential to withdraw from an international agreement we helped spearhead.

The time for action to avoid the worst effects of climate change is rapidly closing.
