On the recordDecember 6, 2019
I thank the gentleman, my good friend, for yielding. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in strong support of H. Res. 326. ``Mirabile dictu.'' Wondrous to relate. Mr. Speaker, it is finally on the floor. I just heard a revision of history from my friend from Ohio. We were prepared to bring this resolution up on the floor in July. This has nothing to do with it. It wouldn't have even mentioned President Trump and Secretary Pompeo's strange acknowledgment of settlements that are recognized as illegal in international law. This resolution is not, as the gentleman from New York (Mr. Zeldin) would have you believe, lacking in a recitation of all the grievances and incidents that continue to plague Israel and the Palestinian people. This is a prescription for a solution, which apparently my friend from New York is not interested in. A two-state solution has been the policy of Republican and Democratic administrations. If you want to call it partisan, you take the blame, because you on the other side of the aisle are the ones who have blocked it. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The time of the gentleman has expired.
