Unfortunately, despite the payments of the German Government throughout the years, significant gaps in survivor care remain.

I sincerely believe Chancellor Merkel's heartfelt expression of concern about Germany's responsibility to survivors and leadership on moral issues will finally resolve this longstanding tragedy for survivors.

Today, we have a chance to ensure that this population, these survivors who made it through the darkest time in history, can live out their lives with the dignity they so deserve.

There should be at least weekly charters for Liberty residents to Albania.

Survivors deserve better than that. They deserve to live out their days in dignity and comfort.

To close. Mr. Speaker, it is important that the democracies of the world stand together to help strengthen freedom, justice, and opportunity. That is why the United States and Taiwan have been such natural partners over the decades. Even…

In closing, again I want to emphasize that Mexico is a vital partner to the United States in terms of trade, security, and a wide range of regional concerns. We need to keep all the channels between our countries flowing, and that includes…

I thank the gentleman for yielding to me. Mr. Speaker, my heart goes out to the thousands of American families affected by the opioid epidemic. I am pleased the House is working in a bipartisan manner to address this crisis. However, we…

I was chuckling this morning that it occurs to me there's a lot of Iran expertise on Capitol Hill today.

Now, I am not losing sleep because Iran can't get its hands on huge sums of money, but it is worth asking now that the deal is going forward, why is Iran seeing just a trickle instead of a surge?

when you take a massive bill like the Affordable Care Act, of course, there are going to be problems with it.

On April 29, 2016, I was unavoidably detained. Had I been present, I would have voted as follows: On rollcall No. 178, Democratic Motion to Recommit H.R. 4901, I would have voted ``yes.'' On rollcall No. 179, Scholarships for Opportunity…

Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman.

What makes this a crime and really a pity is that we had such high hopes when South Sudan was formed and thought that would be the beginning of a new era in the area, instead unfortunately things have gotten worse.

Since the war broke out more than 2 years ago, both parties, parties on both sides, have committed gross violations of human rights and humanitarian law.

On top of everything, I have deep misgivings about the peace deal meant to put an end to this violence.

First is passing the Global Magnitsky Act. That is a catalytic piece of legislation, and we commend your original sponsorship of the bill, Mr. Chairman.

It is always a great feeling to cross the finish line on a piece of legislation. At our best, that is what the Foreign Affairs Committee does, and we are at our best here this day. So I again want to thank Chairman Royce for his leadership…

I fear that it essentially resets the political landscape to what it was at the outset of the conflict and has little to do with the millions of people who have been affected.

I am glad Mr. Machar has returned and consider this an important but modest step forward.

The humanitarian picture in South Sudan is truly catastrophic. Nearly 3 million people are facing starvation, yet only 17 percent of the funding needed to respond to this crisis has been provided.

We should go forward with an arms embargo.

I think Congress not only has been doing good work on the U.S.-Taiwan relationship for a long time.

Thank you especially for calling up the Caribbean Strategic Engagement Act, which I was proud to introduce recently with Representative Ros-Lehtinen.

The United States has a responsibility to speak out when we see basic freedoms under threat.
