Soldiers thoughts on closing gitmo. I have no doubt that closing this jeopardizes the safety and security of the United States and our citizens abroad. If the success or the failure of the mission at gitmo is based on the number of attacks against the United States after 9 11, im confident everyone in this room would join me in judging the mission has been successful. Intelligence collection and National Security have been strengthened as a result of gitmo and america remains a safer place thanks to the men and women serving there. Coaching dangerous terrorists in a military prison and away from American Families is the way it should be done. To me, closing gitmo is simply not an option. Thank you, mr. Chairman. I yield the remaining part of my time. The chair the gentleman yields back. The gentleman from texas reserves. Mr. Thornberry im happy to yield to another speaker to even the time. Im happy to yield to the distinguished gentlelady from indiana, mrs. Walorski. The chair the gent

Perhaps you can earn legal status, perhaps her children can become citizens. Americans are compassionate people, but we are fairminded as well. We have to be fair to those who worked hard, play by the rules and earned the privilege of citizenship. Take it
It is also true that it is difficult for women in some ways. When they get into acquisitions of authority are sometimes caricatured differently. I certainly was as a ceo. Sometimes they are scrutinized and criticize differently because it is different it is new and that makes it hard. Away i think we should think about this is to recognized that Human Potential is the only limit this resource we have in this world. It is fell only resource we need to solve every problem we have and attack every opportunity in a successful way. Women are half the potential of this nation. Women are the majority of voters so it just makes sense. If you look around womens potential hasnt been fully cap to. That means something for all of us. I think we should be tapping everyones potential, men and women and make sure that regardless what somebody looks like or what their gender is for where they come from or what their circumstances are that their life is defined by possibilities and they can go as far a
How to teach and choice on the parents part is being taken away. We we have to do everything necessary to give every Single Parents choice. In New Hampshire, for example you have done something you have provided education Tax Exemptions and credits to include homeschooling an example of saying everyone deserves a choice and particularly a special these parent. My very dear friend to special needs children. She had to work hard to find the right schooling the teachers. She had a lot of latitude and choice and a lot of Services Provided by the state funded by State Government to give us choices. As ceo of fortune 50 company i grass ceiling in American Business and politics. I hate that term, glass ceiling. It implies there is an invisible barrier that you cannot see into the bomb.
