public safety is our most fundamental responsibility, and it is precisely because of that that community-oriented policing policies must be protected

President Trump's immigration crackdown... has created a climate of fear and uncertainty that has already begun to undermine public safety.

That innovation, that resilience approach, by the way, was better embraced with the Global Food Security Act.

If you think of it this way, 20 million people right now are at risk of starvation.

Without safe access to deliver food, water, and vital supplies, especially in areas which are on the brink of starvation, we will not be able to save lives, frankly.

The proposed cuts that President Trump has submitted to Congress are disproportionate, shortsighted, and would be devastating for U.S. national security interests around the world.

Frankly, it is sort of shocking to me that it is the responsibility of the Foreign Affairs Committee to educate the President of the United States on the value of investing in diplomacy.

I would implore this Congress to not rescind $360 million that's on the table for current FY 2017.

Hundreds of law enforcement agencies throughout the United States have adopted community trust policies. These agencies... report that such policies, far from increasing crime, actually reduce it.

The greatest threat to the community banks is that we continue to have banks too big to fail that dominate the market.

China has been increasingly aggressive in the South China Sea in exerting a military presence.
