Let me be clear to anyone who is listening, Hamas isn't motivated by some territorial dispute.

Hamas, a genocidal terrorist organization, backed by the Iranian regime, launched this deadly, multipronged land, air, and sea attack inside Israel.

There is no doubt that the Iranian regime poses a significant threat to the United States homeland and to our allies.

The Honorable Mark E. Green, a Representative in Congress From the State of Tennessee, and Chairman, Committee on Homeland Security:

Congress has abdicated this duty for far too long, and failed to provide the proper legal standing to our troops.

As a combat veteran who served under the authorities of both 2001 and 2002 AUMFs, and a proud representative in Congress for the soldiers at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, for whom this isn't just an intellectual exercise, I would like to thank…

I welcome the opportunity to work with my colleagues in the House to develop a path forward for AUMF authorities that respects congressional leadership on this issue, but also continues to grant our troops the authorities they need for…

However, this world order is under threat from the People's Republic of China.

Since the end of the Cold War, we have existed in a unipolar world in which control of the sea has largely been unchallenged.

To ignore our partners in the hemisphere is to ignore the critical realities that threaten our national security.

We must not allow the CCP to continue its malign activities.

China's growing influence in the region is good news for no one.

Do not talk about the crisis at the southern border and the crisis that the leading source of death for American adults aged 18 to 45 without talking about the CCP's involvement.

It is China that is largely responsible for trafficking fentanyl coming into our country through the southern border.

If you thought COVID-19 was the deadliest disease to come from China, think again. Authoritarianism is a far deadlier disease, having killed hundreds of millions of people throughout history.

Americans are not safe, even in a daycare facility. There is no room for doubt--Secretary Mayorkas is making our communities more dangerous.

Instead of protecting our country and securing our border, Secretary Mayorkas is wasting taxpayer dollars, and the cartels are profiting.

There is no room for doubt that Secretary Mayorkas is making our communities more dangerous.

This crisis isn't only imposing a human cost. It's imposing a financial cost, too.

We are tired and frustrated with our country! My hope is that both Republicans and Democrats can come together and create an immigration plan that protects our border.

This is a bipartisan issue. I do think we should continue to say we stand with the Iranian people.

I think maybe more joint military exercises in the Middle East.

We all know right now the only reason why the centrifuges aren't going up it's not because of anything we're doing.

I support the chairman on that--on the resolution that--a sense of Congress saying that it's unacceptable for Iran to get a nuclear weapon.

But we have to have a credible military threat. That's why diplomacy will work here.
