Iran's policies, from its nuclear weapons ambitions to its destabilizing regional activities to its abysmal record on human rights, create a range of challenges to the United States and every country committed to peace and stability.

The President has said, as have leaders around the world, including the Prime Minister of Israel, that there is still time for diplomacy, but that time is not indefinite.

I think it has some meaning in Iranian culture. I think the Supreme Leader believes that he is conveying a message to us.

A nuclear-armed Iran would pose a threat to the region, to the world, and to the future of the global nuclear proliferation regime.

Absolutely. He will have a significant hand.

We are continuing, of course, to press them for further significant reductions, as is required under the law.

We are not going to put our military or our people at risk in that fashion.

We have designated a number of entities in Iran, some in Syria as well, for the use of information technology in a way that restricts the free communication among the people in Iran.

Iran with a nuclear weapon would increase their ability to create regional instability and hegemony in the world.

the Obama administration takes every single one of these challenges seriously.

Iran's leaders want the world to think of their country as a legitimate power and a regional leader, yet the costly and destructive decisions the regime is making day after day undermine Iran as a credible player on the world stage.

We're committed to raising the cost of repression and helping Iranians break through the electronic curtain that the regime has put in place.

On rollcall No. 64 I was at a meeting with the Vice President and others at the White House and was caught in traffic on the way back to the Capitol. Had I been present, I would have voted ``nay.'' The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is…

I thank the gentleman from Missouri for his tireless work on this. We passed this bill in this exact form in the 111th Congress, the 112th Congress, and I think the third time will be the charm. We passed it by voice vote once; we passed…

I thank the gentleman for yielding. Woodrow Wilson noted that Congress in committee is Congress at work. Congress ignoring the committee process is a Congress that doesn't work. This bill has not been the subject of hearing and, more…

I want to thank the gentleman from Missouri for his work and leadership on this bill. I also want to thank the ranking member, Mr. Frank, for his support, and, of course, the gentlelady from West Virginia. If this bill becomes law, a…

I will be brief. We passed substantially the same language unanimously by voice vote 2 years ago. This bill has been amended by unanimous consent so as to be virtually identical with what was passed 2 years ago. It now has the support of…

I yield myself such time as I may consume in support of H.R. 5817, the Eliminate Privacy Notice Confusion Act. I want to thank Representative Luetkemeyer for his work in introducing this bill. I've enjoyed working with him on it. Madam…

I'll take a minute to put into the Record the statements of Adam Levitin, a professor of law at the Georgetown University Law School, in support of this bill. He came before our committee in May of 2012 and stated ``there are…

I rise again in support of this bill, and I yield to no Member in terms of my dedication to privacy. If this bill passes, you're going to get notification of what the privacy rules are when you start with the financial institution. You are…

I would just state that I agree with the gentleman from Massachusetts, that we ought to require email notification of what the privacy policy is annually as a good compromise. I would hope that some of the others here on the floor would…

I have no further speakers, and I yield myself such time as I may consume. I would just add that there are many of us who are dedicated to privacy, but not every privacy requirement makes sense. Here's a case where people are notified on…

I thank the gentleman for his presentation. I would be happy to cosponsor legislation to require an email notification once a year to every customer who's willing to provide their email address to the financial institution. There are some…

This bill was passed by the House as part of a package on March 8, 2006; this bill was pretty much in this exact form and was passed by this House June 24, 2008, as part of a package; then finally, as a separate bill, H.R. 3506 was passed…

I thank the gentleman for yielding. I want to thank the chairwoman of the Foreign Affairs Committee for her work on this bill and for reaching an agreement with the Senate Banking Committee, and I rise in strong support of this measure. I…
