Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, millions of American families will be enjoying the bounty of our great Nation at this very special time of the year without realizing that their tax dollars are subsiding Saudi war crimes in Yemen. It is estimated that every 10 minutes, another Yemeni child dies from starvation, disease, or bombs made in America. President Trump has basically delegated his policy in this region to the Saudis, even after the murder and dismemberment of an American resident directly linked to the crown prince. That has not been enough to alter American policy. So today, once again, a number of us are calling directly and respectfully on Speaker Paul Ryan to stop the blockade on behalf of President Trump and allow this House to vote--vote now--on what has already been approved by the United States Senate on a strong bipartisan basis, a resolution to withdraw U.S. support from the Saudi forces in the murderous war in Yemen. Let's stop America's role in the worst humanitarian disaster in the world today. ____________________”
