Lloyd Doggett: “Atrocities that are supported with American tax dollars. They fear…”

On the recordDecember 12, 2018

Atrocities that are supported with American tax dollars. They fear that a bipartisan majority of this House would reject what has become a wretched stain on our Nation. Last month, this same group of Trump enablers buried consideration of our resolution to end this atrocity in a bill about gray wolves, and, today, they bury Yemenis again with a bill about American agricultural abundance. As Americans celebrate this special, joyous season of Christmas, the Trump administration, if we do not act today, will continue to write the epitaph on the mass graves in Yemen. Let's reject this rule today and put a stop to this egregious wrongdoing.
