Temporary protected status for Haitians living in the United States expires on January 22nd, 2018.

Efficiency is a worthwhile goal that we all share, but as we strive to hasten the delivery of new treatments, safety and effectiveness must always be paramount.

It is absolutely critical that we ensure our actions do not compromise patient safety.

I have long been an advocate for those suffering from rare diseases.

The empowerment of women has played a major difference in moving his country forward.

While empowering women economically is certainly in line with America's values, it is also in America's U.S. national security and foreign policy interest because it promotes peace and stability in fragile states.

I will continue to fight for a robust investment in these areas

The Trump budget completely zeros out funding for international family planning and reproductive health

I often feel as though women are the canaries in the mines.

This is a disgrace which will set women back across the globe

Recently, I was in Brussels, and we met with NATO officials on a codel led by the Democratic leader, Ms. Pelosi. Mr. Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Pelosi).

Walking away from our commitments isn't the right way to affect the reform that we all want to see.

If we want our values and our priorities to be the values and priorities of other countries then withdrawing from multilateral engagement is a grave miscalculation.

I abhor conferring legitimacy on any entity which discriminates against Israel or is so one-sided.

The U.N. Human Rights Council has targeted Israel ever since its creation.

What so aggravates me about the U.N. Human Rights Council is that they have the nerve, as I said before, to try to sit in judgement of anybody else.

I look forward to working with you. You have approached this job with a zest and a verve that has been refreshing.

We believe that we have a lot to offer the world and want to continue to work with all the countries of the world.

I was disappointed in the budget. I said this to Secretary Tillerson as well. It cuts our support for key peacekeeping efforts in the United Nations by nearly 40 percent.

CHIP reauthorization is vitally important for America's kids.

TrumpCare will cut and cap care for the 37.1 million children on Medicaid.

TrumpCare monopolized the House's time and prevented us from doing all these important things.
