I look forward to the day when they are no longer in the United States.

For decades, the United States has led the fight for human rights around the world.

But when human rights violators are able to live freely in our country, America's credibility is threatened.

Sadly, some refugees arrive from distant shores to begin a new life, only to encounter those who tortured them or killed their loved ones.

While removing them from the United States is important, it is not the same as prosecuting them for human rights crimes.

It is very important in gathering this information that we gather dates of birth, places of birth.

I am disappointed the FBI has not yet hired any agents to investigate human rights violations.

I want to commend Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Justice Department for their success over the last 2 years in bringing human rights violators to justice.

I introduced the Crimes Against Humanity Act, which would make it a violation of U.S. law to commit a crime against humanity.

This case sends a message that the United States is determined to bring human rights violators to justice, even if decades have passed since they committed their crimes.

This was a groundbreaking case, but one case is not enough.

I thank Chairman Kerry for holding this important hearing on a pervasive human rights abuse that millions of women and girls face around the world.

The FDA could benefit from earlier warnings about serious problems with supplement and over-the-counter drug products.

We all recognize there are bad actors in the supplement industry. These individuals should be subject to swift punishment by the FDA and the Federal Trade Commission.

When you take the concept of minimization which basically says yes, keep us safe but don't sweep into your net innocent Americans who are doing things that are 'constitutionally protected' in your own words.

Thanks, Mr. Chairman. My first run-in with librarians was at a very early age when they were infringing on my personal liberties.

The Patriot Act allows the FBI to issue NSLs for sensitive personal information on innocent Americans.

I have come to admire them more and salute them for the important role they play in this national debate.

Removing the insurance companies' antitrust exemption is so important that I think we should all work with Chairman Leahy to make sure that it is part of our health reform bill.

the idea that these third-party people are immune from liability is ridiculous.

I guess what I'm driving at--and I'm glad you do just that, with that kind of rigor, determining whether or not you want to put the stamp of approval as a D.C. charter school on this new approach.

That's what the law requires you----

I'm going to have to work with my colleagues, here, to see if there will be a reauthorization of this program.

In fairness to the many students who are getting good educations through this program, we have got to tighten this up.

So, this one school that we had here that failed to provide a certificate of occupancy in 2007, what happened? You let it continue to operate?
