I strongly believe we must provide immediate protection and humanitarian assistance throughout the Nineveh plain...

I introduced this resolution out of a deep concern for the plight of religious minorities in Iraq...

What we have seen in the past weeks in Iraq and throughout the Middle East, including the crucifixion of Christians and, most recently, the ultimatum for Christians to pay taxes, leave, or face death, goes against every principle we stand…

We cannot be silent in the fact of this horrific crime against humanity...

Empowering women and girls throughout the world to overcome the significant challenges that they face and to fulfill their potential as valuable members of society must be a priority for the United States.

We must also help the entire Israeli nation as it remains under constant threat from Hamas and others, as we are seeing in Gaza today.

The United States must do more to end China's wonton human rights violations and its persecution of Falun Gong and other religious minorities and prisoners of conscience.

Forced organ harvesting is an unconscionable violation of human rights.

The Iron Dome is Israeli-developed but American-financed, and our financing is vital to the safety of the people in Israel.

Thank you for the bipartisan collaboration you have brought to all of these measures and for working with me on what I consider a vital measure, the Emergency Iron Dome Replenishment Act.

In the People's Republic of China the horrendous practice of forced organ harvesting continues unabated.

Importantly, this legislation also includes important language from Mr. McCaul to ensure that the committee is kept fully informed about developments with the Rewards Program.

Amendment in the nature of a substitute to H.R. 5041 offered by the Honorable Eliot L. Engel.

We already passed out of this bill, the Ukraine Support Act, H.R. 4278, we passed this out of committee, myself and Eliot Engel were the authors of it.

What stands in the way is the insistence on President Vladimir Putin that he continues to bring in heavy weaponry.

We have a plan which yields a lot of local autonomy.

Our goal has to be to try to wind down this crisis, wind down this situation, and I believe we have an opportunity to do that.

No deal is better than a bad deal.

Thank you. Thanks very much. Thanks very much, Mr. Chairman.

I just think it makes so much sense.

I feel so strongly about the U.S.-India relationship. I was an original member of the India Caucus back in 1990, when we formed it in Congress. And I have often felt that it is a shame that the United States and India through the years…

I couldn't disagree more. I think that Iran is major, the lead supporter of terrorism in the world.

I just don't feel that it is fair to hold the Kurds hostage.

I don't think that is fair, quite frankly.

I supported the President's decision to send assessment teams to Iraq, but I am cautious about future action.
