Dina Titus

I miss being on this Committee. It truly was a collaborative effort.

I think we do have to be concerned about the President's conflicting messages.

We have heard a lot about the importance or the effectiveness of sanctions. But I question just how well they work if the administration is only kind of halfheartedly behind them.

We encourage this Committee to pay special attention to the implementation of this provision, as it represents one of the most significant contiguous investment of resources in the new law.

We are concerned that so few students have applied for the restoration of benefits under the school closure provision.

That has been stopped, thank goodness. And I commend our chairman for weighing in on that and thank him very much.

I meet with diplomats and parliamentarians from around the world, and they consistently, no matter where they are from, tell me how concerned they are about the U.S.'s diminished role in world diplomacy.

Our work, though, has to be backed up by USAID and the State Department. So when we see those programs being diminished, that hurts what we are trying to do.

I want to also acknowledge Congressman David McKinley and Congresswoman Dina Titus for recognizing this challenge early.

We believe that education opportunities should be a lifetime benefit.

I too share your concern about the mixed messages coming out of this administration, not just to Taiwan but to the whole rest of the world.

I don't believe our country has a singular voice when it comes to foreign policy.

We are not here to tell other people how to live, what to do, and who to be.

I believe you have said that you are opposed to that, that we should not have done that.

I don't see how we can move forward in a leadership role in the world with those two things, those two problems hanging over us.

I was pretty appalled by some of the things he said.

We were very pleased that legislation embodying the appeals modernization framework was reintroduced in the House.

I have missed serving on this Committee and all of you personally.

We haven't received any details about how the President wants to work with others in the area.

I think the meandering policies of the Trump administration have done nothing to end the civil war in Syria.

The only thing this administration has been clear about is that Assad, apparently, gets to stay in power and he is the person who has been willing to kill more 500,000 of his own people.

That is why I recently reintroduced H.R. 456, the Nuclear Waste consent Act, along with my colleague in the Senate, Senator Heller, and here in the House.

Over the years, as you know, billions of dollars have been wasted on this boondoggle, and still, we are no closer to a solution.

I, along with my colleagues, both Democrat and Republican here in Congress, along with the Governor's Office, the State legislature, Tribal and local government leaders, have together, with business leaders, been leading the fight against…

I would encourage you to keep us posted and let us know how we can move forward more expeditiously with that as well.
