The speaker pro tempore witt. The gentleman is recognized. Mr. Mccaul madam speaker, the october 7 massacre was a cruel, barbaric, and bloody as anything i have ever seen. Hamas unleashed pure evil on israel that day. The Hamas Terrorists filmed themselves committing brutal atrocities because they were so proud of their barbaric acts. In fact, in just hours, they murdered 1,200 innocent people and took over 250 hostages, including americans.

But the bath the path forward rebuild our military power, stand with our allies, deter our adversaries and do it today. I want to speak on President Bidens recent decision to withhold certain offensive u. S. Weapons from israel that might be used in a assault on rafah. I support President Biden.

But some for and businesses appraising can have raised concerns saying the expanded law is too vague and creates legal uncertainties. What these last 2, in effect . Partly because its just about complete lack of clarity about where the red lines are. Its asking companies to continue to invest and to do business while blocking their eyes and covering their ears and eliminating their ability to obtain the information that they need to make some business decisions.
