What more can we do to promote early detection?

President Biden's leadership would not have allowed the U.K., France to join us in the defense of Israel.

An incredible global alliance of 50 different countries coming to Ukraine's defense, providing financing, imposing and enforcing sanctions.

I just do not see how the U.S. can say that is enough.

I would love your commitment to work with me to make clear to the Mexican government that appropriating the private property of American companies would be very bad for this important relationship that we have with Mexico.

We need to make sure Israel is successful. Hamas started this war.

I do not think it is anywhere near sufficient.

If Congress does not release the hold on appropriated funds to fund this security force, what is going to happen?

I still think it falls so far below the hurdle that I do not think that warranted a passing grade.

Yes, seizure of private companies is not a good way to attract investment.

It was hard work for you guys to get Kenya to agree to lead this.

This is a country that 4 years ago chopped to pieces an American resident journalist.

The greatest strength that you and our President have shown is in building our alliances in the Indo-Pacific.

The punishment of noncombatant civilians, the killing of aid workers, the ransacking of humanitarian aid convoys with the idea of doing very little to stop it, how can that be sufficient?

Unfortunately, and regrettably, right now there does not seem to be the willingness or the room inside the Israeli politic to make those commitments.

Holding up a nominee, particularly a career nominee for reasons unrelated to that individual's qualifications is something that needs to end.

We need our diplomats out and development experts out in the field showing up, actively engaged, representing the United States.

If somebody on the Senate is holding you up, and it is secret, you do not even have the ability to...

If we mattered to you, you would have someone here, right?

It seems like a big issue to me.

The Senate holds on ambassadorial nominees are harming our national interest.

Other nations do that and they have much better health outcome than we do.

I want to thank you for your work on Remote Access Medical.

I'm going to be in Appalachian, Virginia tomorrow visiting the Allegheny Highlands Dental Center.

Thanks, Chairman Sanders, thanks to the panel.
