Ileana Ros-Lehtinen: “Thank you for providing this humanitarian aid that you just announced yesterday--$2.5 million for Venezuelans and…”

I am proud to yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Poe), chairman of the Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Terrorism, Nonproliferation, and Trade.

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