Ted Yoho

I would encourage you guys to get the results of that report out at soon as we can so we can bring some stability to the market.

What I would like to bring out in this hearing is clarification and the purity of science and the purpose of science and not have agendas driven by one side or the other.

Think of the money we have spent--$2 trillion since '71, $23 billion in equivalence that we have spent.

With the President's policy--his policy of the executive amnesty, I will reserve my question and will submit it to you.

America is known around the world as a country with a global immigration policy of unenforcement.

The increase is 265 percent from December 2014 to the middle of March.

We don't want to walk away and leave a vacuum because when you leave a vacuum somebody will fill that.

If you really want our help you will do these things.

Maybe it is time for an Eliot Ness moment from the old days and put more emphasis on running these people out of this country.

If we don't get to the basic problem we are treating symptoms when we need to get to the underlying diagnosis and cause of that.

What we cannot buy is the rule of law and juridical security and that is what we implore you to try to ensure.

I would like if we can get them to submit where--because it says here are there Embassies or USAID missions in the regions that will experience budget cuts.

Since 1971 when the infamous War on Drugs was announced by President Nixon we have spent about $2 trillion.

What in the heck have we been doing since 1946, and why do not the governments of those countries want the desire to fix that problem?

With the sanctions already in place you got continued illicit procurement. China, the UAE, Turkey are supplying with stuff they are not even supposed to be buying.

I think the American people and our national security would be better served if our focus was on the day that Iran has a nuclear weapon.

Without the sanctions, in your opinion would Iran have weapons now or eventually?

We are not talking about their work to overthrow foreign governments, pledging to erase Israel from the map, chanting 'Death to America.'

The ayatollah is on the streets chanting 'Death to America.'

I think in reality it is Fantasyland if you think you can just click your heels back together and sanctions that take that long to put into place if Iran has a violation that all of a sudden they are just going to be snapped back.

Last Congress, the House unanimously passed bipartisan legislation introduced by myself and Ranking Member Eliot Engel.

Thank you, Madam Chair.

Our commitment to their security and stability is not affected, and that we will continue to confront and challenge Iranian activity

How do you break that ideology?

I appreciate you guys being here in the service to our great country.
