Eliot Engel: “Putin has sent troops to Venezuela to prop up the illegitimate dictator Nicolas Maduro.”

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

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