Amended. Without objection. Mr. Bilirakis i yield myself such time as i may consume. The speaker pro tempore the gentleman is recognized. Mr. Bilirakis i rise today in support of h. R. 3705, the veterans fair debt notice act of 2017 introduced by representative pingree of maine. This bill would help ensure that beneficiaries who have received an overpayment from v. A. Clearly under v. A. s current practice, when the department determines that a beneficiary may have received an overpayment, it sends a letter to the beneficiary that explains why the debt was created and how the veteran can dispute or mitigate the debt. But if v. A. Doesnt have the veterans current address, the veteran may miss important dead linals. For example, if the beneficiary intends to request a full waiver of their debt, but does not request that waiver within 30 days of the date of the letter, v. A. May take action to withhold benefits until the waiver request is adjudicated. Sounds confusing, it certainly is. We

Experts. To my mind, professor knock has done more than anyone to tell us what Woodrow Wilson had to deal with, the history and me moment of Woodrow Wilson, to tell us what Woodrow Wilson confronted and how and the development of his own thinking in the world he lived inch professor tony smith has done more than anything to tell us why this matters. Frankly, every president since wilson not a question for them of whether or not they are wilsonian but rather much. In fact the question that an nateed Woodrow Wilson, promotion of democracy, guides American Foreign policy and might say haunt American Foreign policy. What Woodrow Wilson said helps drive america today. Which i why i am particularly pleased to have the author of this book why will son matters is a darn good book to come here and explain it to us and then buy your own copy. So without further adieu, professor something i, the under is yours. I think everything is working. I think jeff said kind of introduced me in a way that i
We found in the age of trumpets important to choose your words carefully so i want to tell you why i find them to be both wilson experts but of a different quality and a different tone and tenor. To my mind the professor knock has done more than anyone to tell us what Woodrow Wilson had to deal with. To tell us the history and most moment of Woodrow Wilson, what he confronted and how he confronted it and these developments of his own thinking in the world he lived in. Professor tony smith as the other side of that coin has done more than anyone to tell us why this matters. So frankly every president since wilson has not been a question of them or of whether or not they are will sony and but rather how much. Animated Woodrow Wilson in particular of democracy in so much of professor smiths work in the subject of his book tonight will continue to guide American Foreignpolicy today, one might even say would continue to haunt american policy today. What Woodrow Wilson said will not help us
Here is the problem; they dont know where to begin. If they did lying ted. Lying ted. Liar. He comes up did you ever see a guy like this . Ben carson, who endorsed me is a great guy, and lying head, he said ben has left the race. This was on election day. It is not like two days before or after. It is during the election he left the race. People believed him. And thousands of votes were cast not for ben but for ted cruz. It is pure deception and it is lying. There are many other things. During the debates, marco rubio looked over and said you are a liar and i said i never heard an another politician call him a liar so we call him lyn ted. I have met a lot of tough people but never anybody who lies as much as him. I have the tremendous evangelical support and such incredible support. He thought he was going to get the evangelicals but they dont like liars. He walks up and walks in with the bible held high. Held high and then he starts to lie. He is bad. So anyway, i dont think that you
