The fact is, this is not about antisemitism, which I abhor. And the United States' position is against antisemitism, and we need to do everything we can to prevent it.
But the reality is, we have people dying because they are systematically being starved to death because Israel is refusing to allow in the humanitarian aid that people need to keep alive.
The world needs to speak out. I think it's very important that we allow that humanitarian aid in to the people who are starving.

I agree with Senator Hoeven. This amendment really would undermine the serious bipartisan work that went into crafting a strong bill within the confines of our allocation, and I think Senator Hoeven made that point very well. It would…
I want to agree with Chairman Hoeven. This amendment would apply an indiscriminate cut across a carefully negotiated bipartisan bill. It would create a funding shortfall for the WIC Program, threaten the ability of the FDA to collect user…

And, listen, I’m not advocating that we should continue programs that aren’t working.
I rise to propose an amendment to strike the rescission of funds to Ukraine. With Russian attacks intensifying against Ukraine, now is not the time to cut funds that have rebuilt Ukraine's energy grid, sustained Ukraine's ability to export…
But taking a chainsaw to all of our foreign assistance programs over a weekend and eliminating 84% of them is not a strategic and thoughtful approach.
The fact is, I am pleased to see the turnaround in President Trump’s language.
I don’t. And, in fact, what we have done today as a minority report from the Senate Foreign Relations Committee is to release a report…on the impact that is happening because of America’s retreat across the world and the opening that that…
He went a ways towards agreeing with that. I would like to explore some of his answers a little more.
I am really here on this floor to oppose the reconciliation bill that we are considering today. It would be the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single bill in our history. This legislation would take away…
I think we need to pass the tough sanctions bill that we have in the Senate that has 82 sponsors.
We are still waiting to understand the extent to which that action has deterred Iran’s nuclear threat.
