"Today Haiti is reeling in the aftermath of what may well be the worst humanitarian catastrophe that the Americas have ever seen."

"Some have said that Haiti is a lost cause. Based on all I know of the Haitian people... I couldn't disagree more."

"I believe that the United States should work to establish conditions for assistance, and to insist those conditions are met through institutions like the United Nations and the World Bank."

"I do suggest, as I think Senator Lugar was suggesting, that the United States should consider a temporary increase in family unification immigration to the United States."
