Ted Yoho

This amendment is strictly about the rule of law and following the rule of law. I agree we shouldn't have to debate immigration here. This is not about this. This is about following the rule of law. At this point, I yield to the gentleman…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will report the amendment. The Clerk read as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds made available by this Act…

I say we need to rally around the research and development of the antineutrino detector plates.

What I hear is the credibility of the United States, especially from our allies, is number one, they don't know if they can rely on us.

The way I understand it is you need hundreds of tons or tons of fissible material for reactors whereas a bomb you need kilograms.

I would like to see our foreign policy gravitate toward that and let us not forget the lonely Kurds who are out there and I think they all kind of want to have their own country is what I see and I see a resistance to that.

The likelihood of Iran dominating Iraq and the breakup of Iraq actually, I think, is very real.

I don't want them to fear us but they need to know we mean what we say.

The American Sugar Alliance has endorsed a resolution introduced in Congress by Representative Ted Yoho of Florida.

This has gone on long enough. I would wish the world community would come up and say, this is it--you are done and it needs to have a regime change.

I think the biggest thing is the humanitarian crisis and the strife he has caused in that country to his own people.

When you ask the question where is the U.N. the answer is usually in a five-star hotel.

The United States Government must not rest until Amir Hekmati, Jason Rezaian, Saeed Abedini and my constituent, Bob Levinson, are home.

It is well past time to make good on that pledge.

We will not rest until your brothers, fathers, and husbands return home.

Is there a way to centralize this so that we don't have two or three different agencies and 18 different programs sending all this out for the duplication?

Is a democracy possible without property rights acknowledged by a government in the protection of human rights?

The Arab Spring would have happened anyway.

The fate of Egypt should be a concern to the United States.

I think that is a good thing that the Russians are helping President al-Sisi.

It is a slap in his face. As well as the spare parts for the tanks that his country needs.

So 70 percent of that oil would stay here domestically and, you know, it is funny how many different things are out there.

There is no reason, with our natural resources--correct me if I am wrong--that we should be importing oil from anybody outside of the Western Hemisphere.

I share the chairman and ranking member's goal and my vision is to make North America energy secure, energy independent in this region in the Western Hemisphere, to bring stability to the fuel prices.

We don't want that driving our policies. Because now if we are using those products here, we are going to be banned from trading with Europe on that, and it is not based on science.
