Steve Chabot: “There is nothing so despicable as those who prey on children. There is nothing so abhorrent as harming those who are…”

On the recordJuly 25, 2000
There is nothing so despicable as those who prey on children. There is nothing so abhorrent as harming those who are most vulnerable. We have an obligation to do all within our power to protect this Nation's children from the monsters who are out there as we speak. I want to thank the gentleman from Wisconsin (Mr. Green) for his leadership, and actually doing something about the despicable, the abhorrent things which happen to children in this country every day. The gentleman from Wisconsin has shown considerable leadership in offering this legislation. I commend him for that, and I urge my colleagues to support H.R. 4047.
