I thank the gentleman from New York (Mr. Engel). I have listened to the arguments of my colleagues who say that Saudi Arabia is an ally and a partner and we have to support them. Saudi Arabia is a questionable ally--we all know that--and…

I read an article about Sarducci's celebrating 25 years in Montpelier. Marcelle and I have enjoyed eating at Sarducci's since it first opened and are thrilled with what Carol Paquette and Jeff Butterfield have done with the restaurant. I…
