It is shocking to learn that Hamas has spent upwards of $100 million on these tunnels at the expense of Palestinians in Gaza.

No nation would accept the perpetual threat of terrorist launching attacks and kidnappings from underground tunnels.

I want to reaffirm my support and join my colleagues' support for Israel's right to defend its citizens.

Last month, I joined colleagues on a trip to Nigeria. The focus of our journey was the kidnapping of 270 innocent young girls at the hands of the Boko Haram terrorists. It has been 90 days since their taking from their school, their…

Thank you, Mr. Rahall. Mr. Speaker, transportation moves our economy, and modern infrastructure is a path to jobs and prosperity. I will vote for this stopgap measure, but I want to echo the words of my colleagues on both sides of the…

Thank you, Mr. Polis. Madam Speaker, I rise, like my colleague Mr. Kennedy, to urge a ``no'' vote on the previous question so that we can discuss a matter that is very urgent to the women of this country. The most blessed moment of my life…

I just returned from a congressional delegation trip to Nigeria, which was both eye-opening and moving. Nigeria is a country of huge possibilities. It is an oil rich nation, the largest in Africa, with a population that will surpass the…

I think that's fair. But I do know this, that so many of our young men and women are coming home and they have been stressed out, and are mentally unstable.

I just--my heart breaks for you. I'm so sorry, I'm sorry that you have to be here.

I believe so strongly in the U.S. military principle that we should leave no man or woman behind.

Once again, Americans are heartbroken by a gun violence tragedy. Since the mass shooting last Friday in Santa Barbara, more than 160 others have lost their lives at the hands of a gun, including an 18- month-old baby who was shot in front…

Once again, Americans are heartbroken by a gun violence tragedy, mourning the students killed in Santa Barbara. Since that mass shooting on Friday, more than 120 others have lost their lives at the hands of a gun, including an 18-month-old…

An expansion of the Port of Palm Beach was included in the bipartisan Water Resources Reform and Development Act, due to it receiving a timely chief's report. This port shares the Lake Worth Inlet with a popular recreational area known as…

Apparently, Iran's President Rouhani was quoted today saying that a deal over Iran's nuclear program is 'very likely by July 20 deadline.'

Mr. Engel, thank you and Congresswoman Wilson for bringing this resolution. Mr. Speaker, what we have seen take place in Nigeria, the crimes perpetrated by Boko Haram, is simply unthinkable and appalling. There are some crimes against…

Like many Americans, I have been often disappointed with the lack of cooperation in Washington, D.C. So today, I am happy to offer congratulations to the United States House and Senate for this very important bipartisan conference report…

There are some crimes against humanity that, no matter where they happen, it requires a response.

This Sunday, on Mother's Day, we celebrate the blessings of our moms. In deep appreciation, we give them candy, cards, and beautiful flowers. With that said, what our moms really deserve is an economy where women are given equal pay for…

It is important that we are even more on the same page with our European counterparts and that is what we are doing precisely because the economies are so integrated.

I believe it matters after being there and after studying this and I think one of our colleagues talked about the assurances we gave to Ukraine when they gave up a nuclear arsenal that they would keep their territorial integrity.

He was very corrupt. This is a man who lied, cheated, and stole from his people and really undermined his government.

Thank you, Mr. Lowenthal, for your very heartfelt comments. Mr. Speaker, yesterday, Israel commemorated Memorial Day to honor the memory of more than 24,000 Israeli men, women, and children who have been killed in terror attacks and wars…

Thank you, Mr. Meadows, for your very moving comments. I appreciate you being here with us tonight. Mr. Speaker, I am very pleased to yield to the gentleman from California, Mr. Alan Lowenthal, another one of my distinguished colleagues on…

I thank the gentleman from Rhode Island for your articulate and passionate remarks. Now it gives me great pleasure to yield to the very distinguished gentleman from North Carolina (Mr. Meadows), another colleague of mine on the Foreign…

Tonight's Special Order is meant to honor Israel's 66th Independence Day. Last year, I also had the honor of leading a similar Special Order. Much is made about the contention in the United States Congress. Therefore, it pleases me to say…
