I believe this bill would create an unfair playing field for our U.S. timber producers, many of whom are in my district.

I urge you to reconsider your support for this legislation and address your concerns without compromising robust enforcement.

in this Chamber over the last couple of months, we have heard haunting echoes of the past, haunting echoes of Chamberlain going to Munich in 1938 to say to Hitler: Go ahead. Take that slice of Czechoslovakia. We will simply look the other…

just very briefly, my sense is that, after we are done voting on the piece of legislation that is in front of us, we will have, I would say to my friend from North Carolina, a crucial period where we can come together and start looking at…
