Eliot Engel

Let me thank Mr. McCaul, and it is a pleasure to work with him on matters like this. I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from California (Mr. Correa).

Our bipartisan legislation is backed by law enforcement and fire department officials from different jurisdictions across the country.

I wrote a bill last year with Mr. Zeldin and others. We call it the Don't Break Up the T-Band Act.

To deal with this problem, the GAO concluded that Congress should pass legislation allowing first responders to continue using the T-band radio spectrum.

I have heard from my constituents back home in New York, in Westchester and the Bronx, that this auction would endanger crucial public safety communications.

Then let me split it. I yield 30 seconds to the gentleman from Massachusetts (Mr. Keating), a well-respected member of the Foreign Affairs Committee and one of our subcommittee chairs.

May I inquire as to how much time I have remaining. The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from New York has 1 minute remaining.

This isn't an easy subject to deal with, but it cannot be swept under the rug. It is good that the Pentagon has taken steps in recent years to adopt stronger and more responsible policies when it comes to civilian casualties. {time} 1315…

Let me say that I would respectfully remind my colleagues that the Foreign Affairs Committee has jurisdiction over authorizations for the use of military force, and military strikes are conducted under authority from the Foreign Affairs…

The timing of this could not be more appropriate.

I am proud to support Mr. Malinowski's bill, the Saudi Arabia Human Rights and Accountability Act of 2019 as a cosponsor.

As co-chair of the Freedom of the Press Caucus, I do not think we can condemn the murder of Mr. Khashoggi strongly enough.

We cannot let it continue. This bill, and passing it into law, is the first step to do in foreign policy what we do in other areas.

I applaud the decision to restrict security aid, but for too long we looked the other way on the atrocities being committed in the English-speaking region because of our partnership in the fight against Boko Haram.

This bill, H.R. 2037, is about ensuring that there is accountability for those actions.

Jamal Khashoggi's assassination was more than an individual incident, as tragic as it was for those most directly involved.

It is imperative that we send a signal, not only to the President of the United States, but also to Saudi Arabia...

I want to start by discussing three bipartisan resolutions I introduced with Ranking Member McCaul that outline what I see as the three pillars that uphold the successful, uniquely American foreign policy.

Let me, first of all, say that I am pleased to support all of the measures before us today, and I thank our members for their hard work.

House Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Eliot Engel called the situation a fake crisis at the border.

I want to commend Representatives Chris Smith (R-NJ) and Mike Doyle (D-PA) for their work on the Autism Collaboration, Accountability, Research, Education and Support (CARES) Act.

Madame Chairwoman Eshoo, thank you for holding today's important hearing on children's health care programs.

I look forward to working with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to advance the Autism CARES Act.

This bipartisan legislation will also elevate the individual's voice by enabling more Americans with ASD and their families to share their experiences with IACC.

I am pleased that this legislation reauthorizes funding for this important work at the NIH.
