I personally believe there's a lot of things that need to be done in cislunar space to support the Mars program.

I think a human-to-Mars mission will stretch us almost to our limits but I think is achievable.

When we choose to tie one of their hands behind them and say, look, you know, we're only going to use part of your capabilities, that's when we usually end up with not very satisfactory results.

I firmly believe that maintaining access to critical programs like Medicaid and Medicare and building upon the progress of the ACA is fundamental to both the physical and financial well-being of thousands of Americans across our country.

We need to be more forward, particularly in Southeast Asia and the South China Sea.

I believe that if we continue on the current course with the multiple paths that we're on and the current budget, the committee hearing that'll take place ten years from now will say what a disappointing decade we had and that we will be…

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. And Gentlemen, thank you for your service. Thanks for being here today.

So tomorrow I plan to introduce a piece of legislation called the Department of State and United States Agency for International Development Accountability Act of 2017.

So I am inviting members of both sides of the aisle to work with me on this legislation.

the need for regulatory reform, whether it's in the manufacturing sector or services or in the logistics industry, has never been greater.

I think we should make every effort to make sure that the State Department has a specific, concrete plan of action comprehensive in nature that would arrest this problem internationally.

It would require State and USAID to provide a timeline for implementation of these anti-trafficking proposals.

I am absolutely passionate about this issue.

We are doing it, using each other in collaboration.

I am planning to offer an amendment to add a secondary barrier to all U.S. passenger carriers manufactured going forward.

I am very concerned that, as introduced, this new private panel does not include one of the largest users of the U.S. airspace, which is the Defense Department.

It just becomes so important, in my mind, to do the kinds of things you are talking about, which is connecting people to this equation.

It still takes people on the front lines to coordinate.
