the United States should take three clear steps: To persuade President Morsi to reverse course and get Egypt's democratic transition back on course.

It is no longer acceptable to send unconditional aid to a regime that persecutes, prosecutes, and convicts those who seek to aid Egyptians seeking freedom.

I am honored to welcome Colin Bower, a constituent from Newton, and most importantly a devoted father to his two sons.

As elected officials, every person on this dais feels a passionate responsibility to help our constituents, and we must remain vigilant and committed to all American children who are far from home, far from their families, through no fault…

We can't let that stop us from working for the safe return of abducted Americans.
