I share my colleague's grave concerns about the humanitarian disaster in Afghanistan. I share his concerns about the fate of Americans and green card holders and their families and Afghans who fought alongside our troops who were also left behind in Afghanistan. Both of these crises--the humanitarian crisis and the crisis of Americans left behind Taliban enemy lines--are the responsibility of Joe Biden for his hapless, disorganized, chaotic execution of the withdrawal from that country. I yield the floor.
