I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of division E (before the short title) insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds made…

Today I was absent in order to accompany the President of the United States on a visit to my district in Long Island, New York. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea'' on rollcall No. 436, ``yea'' on rollcall No. 437, and ``yea'' on…

I thank Mr. Donovan for his support. I rise today in support of H.R. 2182, to prevent the sale of Plum Island by the Federal Government to the highest bidder. Situated at the gateway of the Long Island Sound, I personally had the pleasure…

Unfortunately what we gave up was our leverage that brought the Iranians to the table.

This hearing, which is called the Families of Iran's Hostages Speak Out, hopefully will be part of a better way forward of America speaking out because these families need this administration, need the American people to be fully behind…

Every time Iran is chanting death to America in their streets, on their holidays, calling us the Great Satan, calling Israel the Little Satan, test firing intercontinental ballistic missiles in violation of U.N. resolutions, working to…

As far as when we look at the debate over Iran and the Iran nuclear deal, there is discussion over the letter of the deal and there is the discussion over the spirit of the deal.

Asking nicely isn't going to make it happen because these aren't good people. They don't respect weakness, they only respect strength.

I think it is important for Congress and the administration and for the American public, but also for the international community, to all be working together to increase sanctions on Iran's bad activities.

Sadly, we have seen terrorist attacks in Europe over the last 3 years, which have killed hundreds of people and were largely carried about by European nationals.

As Americans, it's important for us to be united on this front, protecting the process, not just looking backwards but looking forwards as well and to send that message to make sure it doesn't happen again.

For too long, this regime has taken American and other foreign nationals prisoners on trumped-up charges resulting in sham trials and outrageous sentences.

I would like to thank the chairman and the other cosponsors of House Resolution 185, which calls on Iran to return my constituent, Bob Levinson.

This is nothing more than hostage taking, and it must stop.

I urge our European friends to take action now and designate the whole of Hezbollah as the terrorist organization that it is.

your testimony is confirmation that the U.S. was engaging in dangerous ugly backstabbing of our nation's ally in Israel, and we abstained.

U.N. Security Council Resolution 2334 was an anti-Israel anti-Jewish resolution seeking to ethnically cleanse Judea and Samaria and East Jerusalem.

But without that information, I find it incredibly hard to believe that that was anything other than a ransom payment.

I believe strongly that the administration should recognize Jerusalem as the unquestionable capital of Israel.

There is a lot of agreement that Iran has violated the spirit of the JCPOA.

I would encourage him to go with his instinct from the campaign and follow through with that pledge.

Many Americans, when faced with that split- second decision to act in a crisis with selfless valor, or to flee, answer the call of duty in service to their fellow man. In June 2016, NYPD Officers Peter Cybulski and Hameed Armani, both of…

The issue of illicit financing and money laundering is hitting home in the most personal and tragic way in my district.

These innovators are being forced out-of-State, or worse, out of the country to find a more favorable regulatory climate.

Unfortunately, major obstacles have been put in place by Dodd-Frank and other onerous laws and regulations that made it harder for these entrepreneurs to hire, grow, and make money.
