Eliot Engel: “I view the crisis in Syria as one of the greatest tragedies of our time.”

I think that is scandalous and I think it, frankly, undermines whatever policy we are pursuing in Syria.

I introduced the Caesar Syria Civilian Protection Act several years ago as a response to what we saw in this room.

This legislation, passed into law last December, mandates the most sweeping sanctions on Assad's enablers.

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