The Hong Kong and Chinese Communist governments are alone responsible for the grievances expressed by the protesters and they alone can peacefully address their demands for universal suffrage and investigation of police tactics.

It is time that U.S. policy actively counters this plan. The first step is to pass the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act.

I stand united with the people of Hong Kong and will not be silent in the face of threats to their guaranteed liberties and way of life.

The whole world has a stake in a peaceful and just resolution in Hong Kong and the survival of the 'one country, two systems' model.

I've heard it said that the business of Hong Kong is business, but it is clear to me now that the business of Hong Kong is freedom.

if there is not Federal investment, if there is not a policy that is based on the American people sharing this burden in an equitable way, aren't we in effect having that impact on our fellow Americans?

I absolutely get that New York has a problem and that they need to look for solutions to address that problem.

this is more than just about money, this is a dignity question.

But I do think we are very, very keenly in need of the significant Federal role in transportation and infrastructure.

I believe certainly in the case of New York that some of those funds need to be spent to help New Jersey Transit and regional rail networks bring people into the city.

We often pause to thank veterans for their service in uniform. We do not often enough appreciate their service to us out of uniform.

If today is an average day, as you well know, 20 veterans, servicemembers, reservists and members of the National Guard will die by suicide.

I hope this committee will join me in closely monitoring the development of recovery housing guidelines.

I strongly urge the Committee to markup and pass this legislation so that it can advance to the floor for a vote.

It is abhorrent that some treatment centers and recovery housing operators engage in bad practices.

Each year, through no fault of their own, in my state, in our state, these folks owe an extra $420 million.

We must also do more to address the substance abuse crisis plaguing our country.

Thank you to Chairs Pallone and Eshoo for working to defend the Affordable Care Act and lower drug prices.

Our vision for the end-State in Syria is fairly straightforward. We want a Syria that is not a threat to its neighbors or a threat to its own people.

By painting its human rights violations as a legitimate counterterrorism effort, these abuses in China undermine the global consensus on counterterrorism.

It is wrong, but would you also make the same argument that you made about Chinese repression of Uyghurs, that when it is justified as counterterrorism, it undermines the global effort to identify and fight real terrorism?

As Congressman Malinowski well knows, it is the principal organ within the U.S. Government that monitors and advocates for the promotion of human rights around the world.

When I saw the President's comments over the weekend, my first thought was, my politics may not always be the same as the Congresswomen he was attacking; but all of us are Americans. And unlike most of them, I was actually born in a…

I thank Chairman Engel for his leadership on this issue. I also want to recognize Ranking Member McCaul and all my colleagues on the Foreign Affairs Committee for working with me to ensure that we could move forward with this bill in a…

Let me begin by saying what this amendment will not do. It will not end our security relationship with Saudi Arabia. It will not prevent us from helping the Saudis defend themselves against the Houthis or Iran or anybody else. It won't…
