"This is the first subcommittee hearing of this Congress. It is my first opportunity to be your ranking member."

"That the Administration is considering weakening this law is senseless and immoral, and I fear would lead to more bloodshed."

"I want to do what is in the interests of my country, but I do believe that when it comes to--and I am new on this committee and new on this subcommittee--but I value the voices of Africans."
