We are the most generous donor. And what UNRWA does is perpetuate this refugee problem.

I think you ought to move to close the PLO office in Washington.

Take a far harder line on PLO and PA corruption.

The Palestinian leadership seems to be dead set on pursuing a path of unilateralism before the U.N. Security Council.

I thank the gentleman for yielding. Our national debt stands at a staggering $14.3 trillion and we currently borrow more than 40 cents on every dollar we spend, and our President and Democrats in the other body say that a balanced budget…

Our national unemployment rate is stuck at over 9 percent. We're currently borrowing 43 cents on every dollar that's spent around here, and our national debt stands at a staggering $14.5 trillion. The American people are demanding that we…

I thank the distinguished chair for yielding. Israel has no greater friend than Ileana Ros-Lehtinen from Florida. Despite some progress that has been made toward ensuring Israel's continued security, critical challenges still exist…

The threat posed by Iran takes on a new and more ominous geostrategic significance when coupled with the potential of an Iran base of operations in our own hemisphere.

One of the most fundamental roles of government is to provide for the security of its citizens.

The possibility, however, of an Iranian-Venezuelan alliance is particularly concerning.

I think many of us believe that we made really a terrible mistake becoming so dependent upon foreign oil.

I think it is clear that Venezuela, and Chavez in particular, has been using American money, essentially, either to bribe or influence other nations in this hemisphere.

The last thing we need is for threats from bad actors even closer to the American homeland.

I first want to thank Chairman Smith and Chairman Goodlatte for their leadership in getting us to the point that we are on this important legislation here this evening. Section 8, clause 8 of the Constitution states that the Congress shall…

I think that this is nothing more than blatant raw politics, and I think in the 15 years that I've been here I've not seen anything as outrageous and as much of an exercise of naked political power than this Executive order.

if you're going to do something this dramatic it ought to be done by the will of the people, by their elected representatives.

I think it's shameful, I think it's disgusting, I think it's despicable, I think it's outrageous.

Boxing legend Muhammad Ali once said, ``Champions aren't made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them--a desire, a dream, a vision.'' I would like to recognize two high school basketball teams from my district…

Thank you, Madam Chair, and thank you for your steadfast commitment to the men and women who gallantly serve our country on the battlefield. Mr. Speaker, I rise in opposition to the resolution. First, let me get one argument out of the…

As far as the American people not understanding exactly how much is being paid out, there are all kinds of things floating out there that Members of Congress get free medical care and do not pay into Social Security.

I particularly like your comparison of North Korean leadership to Caligula. I think that is exactly right.

From where I sit, it appears that the administration has mishandled this issue from day one.

The people who are fighting the mullah regime are our friends.

This administration prides itself on the use of effective diplomacy, and yet it appears that this is exactly what was missing.

China is the real problem. North Korea is their vessel. They are, in essence, the tool that the Chinese use just to stir up mischief.
