The Biden-Harris administration will not hesitate to voice our disapproval of the BDS campaign or to fight efforts to delegitimize Israel on the world stage.

I believe it is imperative that the normalization of formal relations between Arab Governments and Israel is extended down to these countries' citizens.

The Biden-Harris administration has already ended most non-humanitarian U.S. development and security assistance programming to Ethiopia.

If confirmed, I would carefully review the option of implementing additional sanctions against those who are preventing access to humanitarian assistance.

We are in the midst right now in 2021 with a record 235 million people who are in need of humanitarian assistance and protection.

I have a lot of concerns about diversity, paid internships.

I think we see what is beginning to look like a civil war in Ethiopia

Last year, I joined with 19 of my Senate colleagues to sign a resolution calling for a ceasefire in Cameroon, and remain deeply concerned by the ongoing violence there.

I am proud to have been a principle author of the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, a program that has provided the Ukrainians billions in military aid and training.

If confirmed, I will make resolving the Anglophone crisis my top policy priority.

I am going to introduce a bill today about paid internships in the State Department.

I am really honored to be working with Senator Young. He and I co-chair a task force at CSIS to look at the humanitarian access, which has been increasingly constrained as violent conflict has escalated.

If confirmed, I will work with Congress to provide robust security assistance to Ukraine, including lethal defensive weapons.

If we are not saying this now and finding ways with global pharmaceutical companies to find a way, then we are relegating developing nations to a level of death, carnage, and economic collapse that is shameful.

That public accountability has shown the number of diverse members of Senate offices go up

My hope is, again, often we have these silos of State Department, Commerce, Trade often, that aren't working in a cohesive plan.

The expansion of Chinese influence is stunning to me and I think that that is something that is far greater than, I think, people realize.

I actually think that all that is great but can I just ask you why not appoint a special envoy to the Horn of Africa?

We should be looking at more paid opportunities

This is a president who is a violent language has been a consistent part of the four years, as well as in his days running for this office.

His language has been leading to this moment, and it is not over.

There was a clear lack of preparedness, and dangerously so.

Mr. Vice President, I can only think of two times in American history that individuals laid siege to our Capitol, stormed our sacred civic spaces, and tried to upend and overrun this government. One was in the War of 1812, and the other…
