Well, then, why have you given us four programs for which he has requested no money?

The President's budget did not request any money for the U.S.-China Partnership for Environmental Law?

Yet, still you are asking the taxpayers to put more money into a program that already has generous support by the private sector.

We need to be supporting U.S. manufacturers in Illinois and nationwide to compete with China, not throwing money away to help China compete with us.

What is being proposed here, essentially, is that we borrow money from China to give back to China to help it fix its own domestic problems, many of which were created in the breakneck rush to develop.

Come on. Now, we have another bureaucracy coming along, blaming the smaller institutions, putting more regulations upon them.

The regulatory system prior to Dodd-Frank failed to protect consumers from harmful practices in this gigantic lending market.

I find it quite frightening that you made the statement that there are tens of thousands of products to be examined to see whether or not they should be regulated.

So the requests of the United States and its allies are simply to ask Pyongyang to live up to its agreements, to abandon its nuclear arsenal.

To stand here and say that we have been 100 percent effective on every item other than postage stamps is to misconstrue the practical world.

Here in the United States, we are blessed with the fact that 1.5 million Americans of Korean descent call this nation 'home.'

The Agreement will also provide American companies important access to South Korea's $1 trillion market and boost the overall level of two-way trade beyond the $87 billion value recorded in 2010.

As America's largest free trade agreement in Asia, the KORUS Free Trade Agreement promises more export opportunities for U.S. businesses and manufacturers than ever before.

This committee and its chairwoman and I have introduced legislation to make those sanctions against North Korea statutory.

One initiative we think we can help implement right away is the recycling of rare earths.

It doesn't take much examination of the supply chain for neodymium iron boron to realize it is all coming from China.

Should we be stockpiling rare earths, as our partners around the world are doing, in preparation for future disruptions?

What are the implications in terms of our national security?

I added an amendment stipulating that whenever the Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S. is examining a potential sale and the buyer is a state-owned enterprise, it will be reviewed at the highest level so that something like this…

It is time to tell China that MFN ends 6 months from today.

Plus we would end up losing the people that made the machine tools, the actual molds, the dyes for the injection systems and other types of systems and molding systems that are used in the manufacture of these plastics. I appreciate…

I demand a recorded vote. The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Illinois will be postponed. Amendment No. 14 Offered by Mr. Rohrabacher The Acting CHAIR. It…

I missed a series of votes today because of a family medical issue. If I had been here, I would have voted ``yea'' on rollcall No. 389; ``yea'' on rollcall No. 390; ``yea'' on rollcall No. 391; ``yea'' on rollcall No. 392; ``no'' on…

Spending taxpayers' money on programs called 'Sex, Drugs, Rock and Roll, and Wildlife' is outrageous.

Can't you see why Congress is angry over the way you are spending money?
