Without reforming our laws, Senator Shelby, it doesn't matter how much money you spend in Central America.

Count me in for immigration reform.

Count me in for more spending on soft power. It does make sense. But it is by no means a substitute for having a robust military with a qualitative advantage over the enemies of this Nation and our allies.

I think a lot of Democrats will be uneasy with some of the priorities in this budget, or the lack of priorities in terms of defense.

Your budget, like every other President's budget, is probably not going to go very far, but that is just the way it is around here.

I think there are people out there--they are not bad people, but they are not going to work for $15 an hour if they make $23 unemployed.

The sooner that process can start, the better, as far as I am concerned.

This budget, in my view, will destroy the ability to create new jobs in this country.

This budget is a disaster for the American military over time. This budget will entice bad actors to be more bold.

It will get no support on this side, and I hope working with Democrats and Republicans we can find a way to have a budget that does not have a 16-percent increase for nondefense and a 1.7 increase for defense spending.

I think we should send a clear signal to China--seems to be a source of a lot of pandemics--that if this did occur in the lab, expect something to happen because if we do not, we are just going to reinforce this in the future.

I share the same concern that Gaza is controlled by Hamas and other terrorists.

With more money comes accountability and transparency.

There's a very strong linkage between women's economic engagement and the political and economic stability of a nation.

Count me in for that.

Count me in, Mr. Chairman, for trying to increase funding to make sure as many people in the world can be vaccinated as soon as possible.

They work in very dangerous locations, taking risks for our country every day to change people's lives for the better.

I would suggest that we have a collaboration between the Department of Homeland Security and USAID.

I was supportive of Vice President Biden's efforts, I think it's $750 million we set aside for Central America to address better governance, poverty, corruption, and lack of the rule of law.

The longer the virus flourishes, the longer it can replicate itself and maybe come up with a form that the vaccines we have today are not effective.

America needs to lead from the front, and developmental aid is a tool in the toolbox to make the world a safer place.

I put forward the Emergency Resupply the Iron Dome Act, to basically divert those funds from Gaza.

Count me in with what the Chairman said.

If the primary were held tomorrow, President Trump would win if he chose to run going away. Would you support President Trump if he`s our nominee? Every Republican needs to be asked that question.

I think we should send a clear signal to China--seems to be a source of a lot of pandemics--that if this did occur in the lab, expect something to happen because if we do not, we are just going to reinforce this in the future.
