I thought we could all welcome a little bit of good news; and that is, that one of our colleagues, Kristen Gillibrand, gave birth in the middle of the night to her second son. Mama is doing fine. The son is 7 pounds, 14 ounces; 20 inches long. I think she is the first Member of this House to leave an Armed Services markup to go into labor and deliver a child. I send her good wishes from all of us.

I think that Congress can finally construct the strategy that has been missing from everything we've been doing in the region.
First of all, let me commend Congress for something it did last year by a veto-proof margin and that was to pass the sanctions law against Russia, Iran, and North Korea that dramatically increased sanctions against all three countries.
I think Congress is AWOL and Congress should be doing this, and the 2001 AUMF that most of us who are here voted for it seems to me doesn't apply to this situation at all.
