Chris Smith

I am absolutely sure people in this room are no way a part of that.

A drug Congressman Smith noted is, indeed, not a perfect drug it is a drug that has been approved by the FDA

Thank you very much, Ranking Member Engel, and another example where there is just close bipartisanship, cooperation and support.

Seven weeks ago, I held a hearing on Syrian refugees and we had the regional representative for the UNHCR as one of our witnesses, Pitterman, who did a wonderful job and he talked about the fact that the gross underfunding of the refugees…

Last question. Since 2007, we, in the United States, as you know so well, have been doing very aggressive screening among the immigrant population--legal immigrants this is--and the refugees, the 450,000 immigrants and 70,000 refugees…

Our briefing and hearing today is extremely urgent, focused on addressing what may very well be the next global health crisis: drug-resistant tuberculosis.

As a father of four, I believe it is vital that the United States continues advocating for the complete elimination of government-forced population planning.

This is a choice no parent should have to make.

The Chinese government has spent the past 35 years telling couples what their families must look like.

Defund UNFPA, unless and until UNFPA stops supporting or participating in the management of a program of coercive abortion or involuntary sterilization in China, in violation of the 1985 Kemp-Kasten Amendment.

Characterizing this latest modification as 'abandoning' the One-Child Policy is misleading.

Ultimately, I believe the unborn children we are fighting for will form a new generation of Chinese children who will lead its transition to a peaceful and democratic nation.

Despite the platitude and applause by some being heaped on China's announced 'Two-Child Policy'--the proposal doesn't change the basic structure of coercive population control.

Thirty-five years of state sponsored violence against women including coerced abortions and involuntary sterilizations in the name of population control.

I am today sending another letter to the President asking him to enforce the visa ban.

I think we have to say that there are two and only two sure ways of eliminating sex-selective abortion anywhere.

When a member of the People's Congress was here leading a delegation, Madame Fu, I asked her about the 600 women purportedly who commit suicide every day... She says it was a lie.

On the issue of women's emotional health, I think one of the greatest overlooked areas here... is the post-traumatic stress, the horrific consequences of the one-child-per-couple policy on womens' psychological health.

I hope China will abolish all aspects of its horrific birth control policy as soon as possible.

The Obama administration has completely and utterly failed to enforce and implement its provisions.

Chen Guangcheng, the famous Chinese legal advocate and human rights champion, calls China's population control policies genocide.

We should not be applauding China's policy. We should be insisting, however, that they abolish all birth limits forever.

The UNFPA, I would submit, is complicit in China's coercive population control policies.

The UNFPA has whitewashed China's crimes for decades and continues to do so today.

I think what you have to do, as I suggested earlier, is to offer Sunnis autonomy within Iraq in much the same way as we have done with the Kurds.
