It is not Congress' job. This is the administration.

What will we have to wait and see, Secretary Kerry?

So you just look at the scale of the deal, like if you were buying a car, would this be a good deal.

I don't know what you had for breakfast this morning, but I would like to on occasion have some of whatever makes you delusional about American credibility.

We don't have any credibility left on the planet in foreign relations as far as I am concerned, basically due completely to this administration.

This might go on interminably while we have no idea what they are doing. And it is all predicated on IAEA inspections.

We do need to narrow down that set, because we don't object to everything.

If we feel so badly about them and they are bad, they are a rogue actor, not--why are they even a part--if a convict is sentenced, do we allow the convict to then sit on the jury?

I couldn't agree with you more, at least as far as being part of the solution.

I support the 21st Century Cures Act underlying text, and I thank the chairman. It has been masterful work. And who wouldn't? Who doesn't want to do something in Congress about these horrific, debilitating diseases that plague our…

One of the first things that amazed me was that George Bush is responsible, and he is responsible because we didn't go to war with Iran from the same people that complain daily bitterly that we went to a war with Iraq and Afghanistan.

I would like to remind Mr. Connolly that it was the Clinton administration, as I remember, in May 1998 that waived the sanctions, the Iran-Libya Sanctions Act, which resulted in an increase in Iran's terrorism, nuclear proliferation, and…

But I would hope that we would reevaluate where we are spending the tax dollars that are earned by hardworking Americans.

I yield myself such time as I may consume. I thank the chairman of the committee for allowing me to offer this amendment. It prevents the Department of the Interior from competing with our local job creators in the use of UAS--unmanned…

I appreciate the gentlewoman's comments. First of all, I did state that fire observation would not be included. Indeed, it is not written in the amendment. It is very specific. So for emergency purposes, if need be, the Department of the…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will report the amendment. The Clerk read as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds made available by this Act…

I am shocked that the Department of Homeland Security continues to make climate change a top--top--priority.

I am outraged that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) continues to make climate change a top priority.

Again, I appreciate the gentlewoman's reservations and opposition for the reasons so stated. I respect them, but I feel this is the correct place to limit in the appropriations, to make sure that the private sector can compete effectively…

Our Nation is facing serious threats to our security.

It is this member's opinion that there are a few folks in this town that screwed up Iraq, but it certainly wasn't the military, and it wasn't the Congress, either.

I thank Mr. Rothfus for the amendment. Without this amendment, as he said, we will see the transfer of all National Guard Apache helicopters to the Active Component while, just last year, this Congress created the National Commission on…

I, too, oppose this amendment. Increasing insurance requirements will not improve highway safety. I mean, what incentive does it create? How does increasing the insurance requirement improve safety? It is not backed by any sound data. The…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will report the amendment. The Clerk read as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds made available by this Act…

I certainly respect the thoughts of my good colleague and good friend from Pennsylvania. I also want to remind him that we went through this last session. This very same amendment passed by vote. And while we do absolutely have the…
