We passed a resolution, 415 to 2, which we drafted, calling for additional sanctions on those responsible for human rights abuses.

We must make certain that international inspectors have access to possible nuclear sites.

It is this committee's expectation that this deadline be met.

If we are going to end this horrific trade, we have got to start by cutting traffickers off from their financial system.

Trafficking has devastated tens of millions of lives around the world.

It is going to help law enforcement and financial institutions report and identify suspected human traffickers so that they can be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

I want to thank our chairman emeritus, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen. Thank you for your work on this bill.

This is the End Banking for Human Traffickers Act. It is going to help law enforcement and financial institutions report and identify suspected human traffickers so that they can be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

Make no mistake, the government is now run by an authoritarian thug. That is the unfortunate fact.

Hun Sen's regime, frankly, has become thuggish. It continues to crack down on the political opposition, arresting and beating those who speak out and oppose in any way they rule.

The demise of democracy in Cambodia, the ongoing human rights nightmare in Cambodia, the violations that the Hun Sen regime is committing against basic human rights and the rule of law, this is the reason for this hearing.

The reality is that the people of North Korea have accomplished amazing things.

The only reason why South Korea needed THAAD was because of Kim Jong-un's nuclear threats.

We strongly urge Cambodia's government to reinstate the political opposition, release Kem Sokha, allow civil society and media to resume their constitutionally protected activities.

The United States and our international partners must act quickly to stop this backsliding away from democracy.

I want to thank Mr. Eliot Engel for authoring this bill along with Ileana Ros-Lehtinen. I also thank Albio Sires and Ron DeSantis, the cosponsors of this measure. Mr. Speaker, I yield 5 minutes to the gentlewoman from Florida (Ms…

I plan to introduce legislation to direct the Office of Management and Budget to identify other areas in the Federal balance sheet where derisking could be used to protect taxpayers.

To date, I suspect everyone on the panel would agree that Fannie and Freddie's CRT initiatives have been a success.

I think we have to lock in successes and build on those successes.

Have you seen the legislation that Gwen Moore and I have introduced that would call on the GSEs to increase the amount and the type of credit risk transfer transactions?

Do Ginnie, Fannie, and Freddie have the legal authority to do more, including increasing the front end risk sharing?

I do like the idea of the filing concept and the sharing of the data, and I want to go back to my idea again.

I understand that part of the problem. But look at it from the standpoint of the risks to allowing SAR sharing.

I support this concept, which would improve enterprise-wide management.
