Congress has had a long and abiding interest in Tibet.

I believe that we in the United States--and, Mr. Tethong, I appreciate your kind words, but to be honest with you, we're not doing enough.

Tibetans also... fit squarely in that category [of a people with a right to self-determination].

The Tibetan people cannot advocate for themselves.

I just want to say that we're working on a bill that we'll be introducing soon to help the U.S. Government counter Chinese disinformation on Tibet.

If you want to do something constructive right now, you should re-enter the direct dialogue that you walked away from 12 years ago.

We cannot--we must not be paralyzed by the politics of firearms.

We need to stem the flow of guns to our streets and to people who we all agree should not have them.

I support his legislation.

What sense does that make, right?

Universal background checks, supported by nearly 90 percent of Americans, would make communities safer.

But I think part of this discussion has to be on the responsibility of people who are producing, not just selling, but actually manufacturing these guns, you know, to--you know, to help us try to control what has become an epidemic in this…

But, you know, welcome to Washington, where, because of the arcane rules of the Senate, there is a dictatorship of the minority.

We need increased research funding for gun violence.

If we are going to stem the tide of violence, we have to have a range of approaches.

I mean, I am going to be able to figure all this out?

I think, again, it is one of these things, like, who is opposed to this, right?

One way to do that is to make sure that the ATF has the resources and leadership to do.

If the issue is about protecting our children, but not just children--everybody...

I agree with all of the recommendations that you outlined that Congress should do, and I think the majority of American people do as well.

You know, I appreciate your service as well.

the American people understand that we can't sit idly by and watch preventable deaths by gun happen every day.

Every day an individual gets killed, and no one knows their stories.

He can end this war, if he wants to. And we all hope and pray that he would do that. I mean, this is his war.

Look, what Putin is doing is committing war crimes.
