We shouldn't give a penny to the U.N. until they disband that Human Rights Council.

The U.N. needs to be completely overhauled.

The President, Vice-President, and all civil officers of the United States shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.

I think it's clear that most Americans would only want those that are in this country legally to benefit from these types of taxpayer-funded programs.

I have some concerns of the bill in general because of the segmenting of various groups and sometimes pitting one against another and being competitive with each other, and so I can't say that I honestly would be in favor of a number of…

Her amendment makes some needed technical changes to the bill. Nevertheless, as I pointed out in my statement previously, we believe that this proposed solution to the failure of the SBA to implement the women's procurement is, in our…

Given that tomorrow is the first annual day of remembrance for murder victims, it is only fitting that we recognize and respond to a segment of the victim population that too often goes unrecognized: those victims who are missing and whose…

This amendment is long overdue. Taiwan is our friend. It is a longtime democratic ally and a major trading partner. Just across the Taiwan Strait you have Communist China, with its more than 900 missiles pointed directly at Taiwan. China…

The amendment offered by Mr. Sestak will increase the protections against inappropriate contract bundling. It represents a compromise between the Small Business Committee's version and the Committee on Government Reform's version of H.R…

Mr. Speaker, this bill simply extends all the programs, including pilot programs, the authorities or provisions of the Small Business Act and the Small Business Investment Act as they are presently constituted until the end of this year…

I think what Mr. Faleomavaega quoted sums it up better than anything else, and that is that a person should be judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin. I think that is something we should always strive…

I agree that this is not directly related to Kelo, although there is, I think in many people's minds, some connection, and I think rightfully so.

I happen to know that he also represents people that are at lower income levels that maybe are having their houses taken away by somebody. As all lawyers do, they represent a whole range of cases. And the other gentleman from Washington…

We have the same zoning laws that are in many other places around the country. There is an appeals process that we go through, and there is a three-step process under this particular legislation: You have to be denied. You have to then…

I think anything that approaches amnesty is wrong, and I think they're going to have a hard time getting enough votes in the House to pass such a bill.

Reclaiming my time, since 1982, there has been almost $1 billion, $850 million in all, spent for this. And relative to jobs, back in 1996 there were 1,500 jobs. It is down to below 300 right now. So every one of those jobs is basically…

And the overwhelming number are in favor of border security, against anything that approaches amnesty.

I personally do not think that a majority of the Republican conference could support anything that even approaches amnesty. And that's what many of us consider this so-called guest worker program to be.

The more U.S. taxpayers are forced to support unnecessary and economically dubious programs such as the MAP, the less credibility our Nation has on adhering to free trade principles. I think even though the Europeans do it does not…

I rise today appalled that an extremist minority in the other body has forced Miguel Estrada, an excellent and well-qualified attorney, to withdraw his name as a candidate for nomination to the D.C. Circuit of the U.S. Court of Appeals. As…

I would be happy to provide a long list of organizations that are in favor of this legislation. Be happy to trade lists with the gentleman. This is an inhumane, barbaric, brutal procedure which ought to be banned.

If I had time, I could list all the organizations in favor of this legislation. But just using the AMA, for example, they have sent us letters indicating they are opposed to this legislation, but what they do not like at this point is the…

The bill clearly says, ``Except as provided in subsection (b), whoever knowingly transports an individual who has not attained the age of 18 years across a State line, with the intent that such individual obtain an abortion, and thereby in…

The language indicates if a person transports a person across the State line, then that person is responsible. It depends upon the level of their involvement.

The gentleman is saying if the person who is going to get the abortion is driving the vehicle, would they themselves be responsible?
