Do you believe or would you not agree that it is appropriate to include the State Governors in the talks of moving the terrorists into their State?

Whatever the number, I think it is $1.3 billion for gender programs.

Thank you for your testimony. We know that Libya, Syria, and Yemen by any definition are failed states.

It has been a very significant portion of that overall budget.

One-third of the children in Syria were born since the war began, so what is their life?

One suggestion is that we know what we did in Iraq. We know what we have done in Afghanistan. Well, where we screwed up, let's not screw up again.

From my point of view, the democracy programs are just as important as any weapon system we buy, because once you kill the enemy, if you do not follow up, you are going to get the same result.

Hopefully, we can bring stability to Libya and Yemen.

Could you inform the American taxpayer through us why it is important for us to invest in such programs? What do we get for it?

Potentially. I, like you, am hopeful and believe strongly that we need to get to the point in all three of these countries and others where we have openings for peace and we can start on the path to stabilization.

The point I am trying to make is, are we prepared for what we know is going to follow, which is three failed states trying to be stabilized?

I think, sir, it depends where the openings are.

Thank you for what you do. You work in difficult places.

I think you have about $1 billion, I believe it is, to help women in Muslim countries. Is that correct?

Mr. Speaker, last week the American people lost a devoted public servant, Nancy Davis Reagan. As a former staff member of the Reagan administration, I will always appreciate the devotion of Nancy Reagan to the American people, especially…

If a baby can't be operated on to save its life without anesthesia, should we allow abortion for any reason at that point in the pregnancy?

At 20 weeks, you can't have an abortion unless the mother's life is at risk, or as a result of rape or incest.

I do believe a baby can feel pain. I think there is a legitimate State interest to protect a child that cannot be operated on without anesthesia from an abortion.
