Ileana Ros-Lehtinen: “This important bill would extend this longstanding bipartisan lifesaving program for another 5 years.”

I am proud to yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Conaway), the chairman of the Committee on Agriculture and the author of this measure.

I add my support for all the measures before us today.

The United States and our partners have a responsibility to do everything that we can to ensure humanitarian aid reaches the people of Venezuela.

I would like to tighten the sanctions on those military leaders because I see that as the problem.
