Eliot Engel: “This committee... sent a very strongly worded letter to President Chavez signed by 11 Democrats and nine Republicans.”

We like to say that the Foreign Affairs Committee... is the most bipartisan committee in Congress.

I particularly want to thank Chairman Engel for his leadership, as well as the whole committee, for making the Caesar Act a reality.

I know Mr. Meeks very well and I know that he will do an excellent job--an excellent job--as chairman.

We will continue to call out and hold accountable those who undermine the Dayton Peace Agreement or threaten the country's sovereignty, territorial integrity, and multi-ethnic character.
