This administration, for its part, has refused to recognize that we are fighting radical Islam.

I have been to the Middle East now 12 times, and it is always encouraging, the people that we meet with.

What we are dealing with are terrorists, these people who have a keen interest in killing every Muslim that disagrees with them.

At the same time the administration was saying that terrorism was on a retreat, Dr. Kagan was correct.

Until we have established a coherent policy on radical Islam, we are going to be behind the eight ball.

It is so sad to me this administration I think began with obfuscation, that it would say we are in a global war on terrorists.

What we are talking about is economic freedom, the ability to operate your own business successfully.

It is independence. It is opportunity, entry-level jobs, it is so meaningful in the communities I represent.

Well, I share your concern. And--because running your own business, that is the key, and being a franchisee, that is so beneficial.

The discussion this week as I came back, is it ISIS or is it ISIL? No, it is terrorists.

A year ago last June, I presented this map by Dr. Fred Kagan of the American Enterprise Institute, warning of expanding terrorist safe havens around the world. The President ignored these signs and underestimated the strength of the…

The failing Affordable Care Act has proven not to be affordable for American families. Health care premiums have increased with confusing coverage destroying jobs. When Stepheni from Monetta went to the doctor, she found her ``copay for…

My hopes for the people of Afghanistan are very personal.

Somehow we--the American people have forgotten that.

The IRS plays an essential role in the Obama administration. They are responsible for enforcing the failing health care law, interfering with free speech, and handling finances for the government. Sadly, it has become apparent this…

Thank you for your strong support in promoting democracy in Egypt.

Folks in South Carolina and folks I talk to all over the country are concerned of what is going on in Iraq because we lost so many men and women there.

I am concerned about our friends in the Kurdish region.

How did we miss that?

I believe that we are in a long-term global war on terrorism.

The American people know the IRS cannot be trusted. The IRS has been corrupted by this administration, undermining the integrity of its longtime employees. Former IRS employee Lois Lerner arrogantly refuses to answer questions, and now the…

It is wrong that you have troops serving overseas receiving these notices and they have to think about transition to civilian life.

Ladies and gentlemen, the hearing will come to order.
