Rodney Frelinghuysen: “I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. I strongly support her…”

On the recordJune 18, 2014

I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. I strongly support her amendment. What was particularly galling in the Guantanamo transfer of these detainees was that the Taliban were able to choose the people they wanted released, and then the picture that we saw of their being greeted in Qatar by their terrorist brothers was enough to make you sick. So I am strongly supportive of her amendment. I am glad that we have renewed this commitment to make sure these people are not released anywhere. I thank the gentlewoman. The Acting CHAIR. The time of the gentlewoman has expired.
