I fully support the sanctions placed on Russia for meddling in the 2016 election.

China is an adversary, and I am pleased that the current administration is confronting Beijing over its trade practices and military adventurism.

I urge the administration not to withdraw our forces from Syria and Afghanistan until ISIS and al-Qaeda are completely destroyed.

I strongly support the decision to withdraw from the Iran deal. This was a flawed agreement, in my judgment, that provided over $100 billion to the world's leading sponsor of terror.

I strongly urge the administration to continue the maximum pressure campaign we have for complete verifiable and irreversible denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.

There are a large number of people who are people of faith all over the world, including the people in China.

I introduced H.R. 390 to assist those men and women who were escaping from ISIS.

The U.S. continues to be the largest donors of humanitarian assistance worldwide.

Anna Eshoo who is the cosponsor of my bill... is making the difference to reach out to those people who were persecuted.

I think it is right that we focus on refugees, and IDPs.

I deeply appreciate that.
