Joe Wilson

I ask the committee to consider the following for the site.

I am here today representing the Second District of South Carolina, where I am grateful that we are the home of the Savannah River Site.

And that is that, indeed, we appreciate Chairman Eliot Engel on his bipartisanship and the success that you have had in Congress and the Caesar Act.

Is there more that Congress can do to back up sanctions against the Assad regime?

Still, this court is part of a larger problem with how the United States has been approaching Kosovo.

I strongly caution the courts, the United States, and our allies, that we must now--we must not allow it to become an ethnic court.

Let me be absolutely clear. Anyone who committed war crimes on any side should be prosecuted and brought to justice. Period.

I am pleased to yield 4 minutes to the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Chabot), the sponsor of the bill.

We in Congress will never cease to advocate for the liberty of the freedom-loving and deserving people of Iran who have been hijacked and oppressed by the terrorist regime in Tehran.

There could not be a greater contrast of the difference between freedom and democracy and totalitarian existence in the Korean Peninsula.

There is no doubt that China and Russia are our main competitors and they continue malign activity in Africa.

We think that this will strengthen deterrence along NATO's southeastern flank in a very positive way.

I visited MK [Mihail Kogalniceanu] Air Base in Romania with Congresswoman Madeleine Bordallo when it was established as a logistics hub.

I visited our base there in Novo Selo in 2008 at its meager beginning, and now it is a world-class training facility.

I am particularly grateful that President Trump has expanded the troop presence in Poland. This is a deterrence to Putin aggression.

On Friday, our country lost Congressman John Lewis, an inspiring individual who stirred so much important change. I would like to extend my deepest sympathies to Congressman John Lewis' family, friends, and staff. Congressman Lewis will…

Thank you very much, Chairman Eliot Engel, and we appreciate your strong and longtime bipartisan efforts on behalf of our country.

I am really encouraged to see our relationship with India developing.

The House of Representatives passed House Resolution 156 relating to the assassination of Boris Nemtsov that contained this provision of inquiring as to the introduction of secondary sanctions against Kadyrov's interests in the UAE.

And there was a very important request that was sent a few months ago, a bipartisan request, signed by Congressman Joe Wilson...

What actions can the United States take to protect Ukraine and other allies from Russian energy weaponization?

But signs indicate the Russian people aren't buying the rigged vote nor the regime's attempt to provide legitimacy on what was in reality a power grab.

I still am so hopeful, 1 day, indeed, that the extraordinary people of Russia can be free.

I also am grateful for President Trump's leadership, with additional sanctions that he has put in place.

We must find more ways to hold Russia accountable and increase the costs of their mischief.
