On the recordJune 8, 2006

The report accompanying H.R. 5522 does indicate the committee's awareness of the Gift of Life International's Project Iraqi Hearts. It is an initiative that should be thoroughly explored. The ranking minority member and I are both committed to working with the gentleman from New York to ensure that this proposal gets careful consideration from the Department of State and USAID. Specific funds have not been set aside, but if review by State and AID show the program can deliver results that save lives, it would have the committees's strong support.

I would like to commend the Chairman and Ranking Member for convening this hearing and for keeping the Committee focused on the importance of U.S. global leadership, effective partnership, and good development practices.

This is the moment for the United States and Europe to negotiate the boldest, broadest trade and investment agreement we have ever contemplated since World War II.

Yes, there are. And I think actually USAID has undertaken, in these last several years, a lot of those reforms.

It is a great pleasure to be able to testify today especially with this distinguished panel who are really the practitioners of public-private partnerships.
