p is recognized thank you Mr Speaker Mr
0:03
Speaker I yield two minutes to the
0:04
gentlelady from the great state of New
0:06
York Nicole malliotakis the gentleman
0:08
from New York is recognized for two
0:09
minutes
0:10
thank you Mr Speaker we've heard from my
0:13
colleagues the reasons why the
0:16
representative Omar should be re removed
0:19
from this committee and but I feel like
0:22
all the reasons have not just yet been
0:24
stated which is why I Rise to add for
0:26
the record we've heard about the
0:28
comments that were made regarding
0:30
anti-Semitism and anti-israeli Views but
0:35
I Rise to add to the record that as a
0:37
member of the Foreign Affairs committee
0:39
I've sat there and heard the
0:43
representative actually spew
0:45
anti-American rhetoric as well
0:48
I've been in that committee room where
0:51
the representative
0:53
equates Israel and the United States to
0:57
Hamas and the Taliban absolutely
0:59
unacceptable for a member of that
1:02
committee I've also heard the
1:05
representative
1:06
Kuwait that it is the United States's
1:09
fault that there is turmoil in Venezuela
1:13
that is not because of the oppressive
1:14
socialist and communism that has spread
1:17
throughout Central and South America in
1:18
Venezuela at the hands of the Maduro and
1:22
Hugo Chavez regimes
1:24
that is unacceptable
1:26
and as a New York representative to hear
1:29
the representative belittle
1:32
to try to diminish
1:34
the worst a terrorist attack on United
1:37
States soil on September 11 2001 as some
1:41
people did something that is
1:43
unacceptable as well and I hold the same
1:45
standard
1:47
for this side of the aisle that I do the
1:48
other because when another colleague on
1:50
my side said something about 9 11 I also
1:52
voted to have her removed from the
1:54
education committee because I thought
1:55
that was inappropriate
1:57
so I'm being consistent here and I hope
2:00
my colleagues will do the same to show
2:02
that this is about consistency and
2:05
accountability because we should not
2:07
have an individual with those views on
2:09
the committee that is tasked with
2:11
representing our country and our
2:14
Congress to foreign Nations I yield back
2:17
this young lady yields back
