On the recordFebruary 13, 2024
Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume for the purpose of closing. We cannot overlook the Assad regime's atrocities against the Syrian people. Allowing the regime back into international organizations would do just that. {time} 1715 I support the administration's work to hold the Assad regime accountable and believe this bill reinforces the administration's efforts by making it U.S. policy not to recognize an Assad-led Syrian Government, discourages other nations from doing so, and expands targeted sanctions on the regime. Madam Speaker, I hope my colleagues will join me in supporting H.R. 3202, and I yield back the balance of my time.
