David Cicilline: “The gentleman's time has expired, but the witness may answer the question.”

Since the Goldman Act was enacted there has been a decline in the number of American children abducted overseas and that is a good news story.

The Goldman Act empowered the State Department to seek the return of American children, yet, the department, in my opinion, has not used the full of range of tools as Congress has intended.

Democracies consistently prove to be the most reliable geopolitical allies and trading partners for our country.

The future economic prosperity of our state is directly dependent on our ability to get this right.
