“in 1994, staffers at UNICEF's Kenya office defrauded or squandered up to $10 million. In the Congo in the last year, U.N. peacekeepers and civilian personnel stand accused of widespread sexual exploitation of refugees of the Democratic Republic of the Congo and a $10 billion oil-for-food scandal. Mr. Speaker, it is time for U.N. reform with teeth. It is time for the Henry J. Hyde U.N. Reform Act. In the Hyde bill, this Congress will bring about a new prioritization of programs, increased accountability and oversight, and strengthen human rights institutions within the body. Under the Hyde bill, the U.N. must meet 32 of 39 reforms, 14 of which are mandatory, or they face the potential consequences of a 50 percent reduction in U.N. assessed dues in the very near future. It is time to save the U.N. from scandals and mismanagement. It is time for U.N. reform with teeth. Let us pass tomorrow the Henry J. Hyde U.N. Reform Act. ____________________”
