We have every right, I would say every duty, knowing that Christians and Muslims are being slaughtered to--and put into prison for blasphemy, to do just that.

It makes no sense to make a State out of an entity that we would immediately have to designate a foreign terrorist organization.

Can you imagine if we came together and actually solved the most politically divisive issue facing our Nation today? The American people would be incredibly relieved. They would be so grateful. We could check this key issue off our list…

Can't defend what they did, but want to continue supporting them.

Why any American taxpayer should be supporting an organization like UNRWA.

this Administration, the Biden Administration in particular, is so desperate for a nuclear deal with Iran that they are going to be on both sides of this war.

I think it is necessary to see how far these impacts reach, and I request that you use your power as the Chair of the Financial Stability Oversight Council to investigate this emerging risk.

The Iranian regime is relentlessly evil and seeks to become the superpower in the Middle East, which means that they intend to eliminate America and its allies at all costs.

The church leaders issued strong statements of protest, as did I, as did you, sir, and so many others.

Nobody disagreed that Israel is our ally. Nobody disagreed that Palestinians are not our ally.

It is, frankly, a complete abdication of our responsibility.

The fact remains that the conversation is being had because this Administration is turning its back on Christians all around the globe.

I support the objective of the bill, which is to see that aid to Palestinians in the future goes through organizations that are benign, rather than through UNRWA.

The Administration has turned a blind eye to the crisis.

So we need to pivot now. And believe me, there are organizations, we have mustered and brought together forces in the past to ensure that humanitarian crises are met and they are met effectively.

The noes have it. The amendment is not agreed to.

Time is running out to make family reunification a reality, so we must treat this issue with urgency.

We are not going to stand with them. We are going to designate them a Foreign Terrorist Organization because that is what they are.
