I think this is such an important area in this global competition between freedom-loving nations and autocracies that I am very concerned about the trends.

I, frankly, think we need the bipartisan focus of this committee on making sure that we are actually delivering the resources to defend democracy at this critical moment.

I so much applaud the set of goals you just laid out.

As long as there is a world market for oil, Russia will be able to sell it to them.

Time after time, the people of the Ukraine have said, we choose government by the people, not the Russian model of government by a dictator.

Our strategy is maximum support for the Ukrainian patriots in their opposition to Russian military occupation and forces.

I do agree. And the Green Party had always recognized the downsides of nuclear energy.

We should be transitioning to offshore wind, and we should be doing it in partnership and leading the world in this effort to end this addiction to oil.

We are ready to invest a lot of money to be able to double stack containers.

Please make sure we do this right.

I think we are going to have the Markey and Merkley team to something to respond.

Our current system is absolutely chaotic.

I am asking for you and your team to take a very close look at this.

I certainly support that effort completely, and thank you for being such an advocate for it in the House.

I think it's just important for us to keep raising this issue of what U.S. companies can do in a proactive way.

No one should ever have to go through what you endured and what other Uyghur and Turkic Muslim women are experiencing.

Governments that fail to treat women equally prevent their countries from reaching their full potential.

The future of women in China is at stake.

It is almost unimaginable to think that any government should be in the business of regulating, making, or forcing women to choose how many children they should have.

Thank you very much, and thank you to each and every one of you for your testimony today shining a light on these incredibly important issues regarding the treatment of women in China and, more broadly, practices that need to be…

Is there any other way to describe this than as racist eugenics?

Over 70 years ago, Mao Zedong acknowledged the importance of women in Chinese society with his famous statement that 'women hold up half the sky.'

I'm hoping that the Senate will make sure that it stays in there in the final version of this legislation.

I hope the Congress can do more to make sure that Uyghur torture survivors can get medical care and counseling.
