mr. carter for his personal contribution. as been really defining in terms of the bilateral dynamicism which characterizes the relations, and interoperability is admirable. ash carter was kind enough on the 19th of december to visit our area naval facilities. a force 40 contingent which is working closely with the americans in the persian gulf. france and the united states are acting together in many parts of the world in order to ensure stability, security, police, and guaranteeing the safety of their own populations. and that is true in the [ inaudible ] as in lebanon. the united nations today plays a key role in the fight against daesh or isil, and in heading the international coalition against isil. france is also on the front rank in trying to combat isil. more than 3,500 french servicemen participating in the operation in lebanon, but also in the [ inaudible ] as well, by the side of their allies. and france is putting much of its reforces against daesh and we have bombed three times mosul last weekend, and joint efforts

mr. carter: yeah. first of all, i'm in agreement with everything my distinguished colleagues have said here. d in another era, in times past, you know, perhaps a u.s. secretary of defense or a security official, a secretary general of nato, were worried about and committed to preventing and succeeding, if it came to that, state to state conflict. we still face that. and the threat of that in many places. the korean peninsula is one immediate example. but as has been said here, and i don't expect this day to end, as society grows more complex and interconnected and therefore essentially more vulnerable, and as destructive power falls into the hands of smaller and smaller groups of humanity, this problem of the few against the many as a security issue i expect to be with us for a long time. and so, as i think about the future of the u.s. department of defense, as i do all the time in addition to current operations, that's going to be a preoccupation of my successors and our job is to deliver security to

mr. carter met with the prime minister of iraq who asked for more american support for his beleaguered ranks. this as carter said the pent agone will send more american boots on the ground to face the radical islamic terrorists. will that work? john bolton is the former u.u.s. ambassador to the united nations and a fax news contributor who joins us now from chicago. ambassador, he predicts that it will be wiped out. he says there is a strategy to take out monsulmosul, to take b raqqah. do you think the iraqi forces are up to it? >> no, i don't at the moment and i don't think it's necessarily the case the secretary of defense represents a change from what president obama has ban bn saying for the past year, his objective being to degrade and ultimately destroy isis. well, ultimately has a lot of ambiguity. it could be a long time from now. there's no doubt that to destroy isis you have to destroy their capital at raqqah and move them out of major cities like mosul in iraq. whether this meeting with the miami minister of iraq -- it doesn't seem so, from what they were talking about, but we'll

mr. carter. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from georgia is recognized for two minutes. mr. carter: i thank the gentleman. mr. speaker, i rise today in support of this rule and passage of s.j.res. 22rks which provides congressional disapproval on e.p.a.'s extreme overreach with their waters of the u.s. rule. last june the e.p.a. published its final orders of the u.s. rule that would virtually give them authority over any place water flows or accumulates. this would include driveways, ditches, man-made ponds, and even our watered lawns. currently private and public tities spend an average of $271,000 and wait an average 788 days to obtain permits from the e.p.a. for projects currently under its jurisdiction. expanding e.p.a.'s authority in this unprecedented way would be extremely devastating to landowners, especially farmers, and make them devastating statistics even worse. with this bill congress would nullify this ridiculous rule and continue to provide americans with personal control over their property. property is not an asset that can be taken control of on a whim of a

mr. carter? >> thank you. as to the absence of the factual record here, it's important to point out that we gave them an amended answer where they can make any allegation they wanted. and at page four of their so called opposition to so call the judgment on the plea. why is that? it's certainly their burden to argue, for example, that agency fees will lead to the demise of the union. but they didn't make any such allegation in response to frustration. they've got all the facts and terms of the union's fiscal well being. that's because they can't make such an affidavit in the real world. how do we know that? 25 states prohibit agency fees. not one union. see if you can see one example of the union capitulating. and only a third of the members are union members. and, yet, that union survives, whereas here, we have 90% union membership. and 90% of the nonmembers continue. the notion that anything can happen adversely here simply doesn't square with things. the notion that there's some federal policy in favor of a

mr. blo blo bloomenthal pointed out that no matter how well intentioned, president carter lacked the will to make the decisions necessary to break the back of inflation. first of all, i don't think the early 80s on questions like this are going to be easy. to say there's a quick and easy fix out there for anyone is wrong. i think you chart a course. for me the choice would be to emphasize the fundamentals of economics. specifically within a fundamental frame work of conservative economics, i would respect the growth of federal spending. i would compel the congress to do that. and if they didn't, i would veto legislation, hold the growth rate to 6.8%. i would find ways, and this is not easy, to cut through the excesses of regulation. i would get rid of many regul e regulators leaning on the far side of regulation. we've got to find the balance on regulation. a third thing i would do specifically is to have a tax cut, but not the popular one. not the one out there that says we're going to have a recession here so let's cut taxes on everyone. i would have a supply-side tax cut. it would be t

mr. carter: the president should be working with congress to enact legislation not creating executive orders because things don't work out his way. the fact is that the president's executive actions would not have prevented a single mass shooting over the past several years. one of the main underlying causes of many of these shootings was mental illness, and i will be the first to agree we should dedicate efforts to address mental illness in this country. however, directing millions of dollars in new investment for mental health care is not the role of the president. this is the role for congress. if our founding fathers wanted to restrict the right to bear arms, they would have written it into our constitution. if our founding fathers wanted an executive fiat government, they would have created one. i call on my colleagues, both democrats and republicans, to stand up for this institution and protect what our founding fathers fought and died for. a republic, elected by the people, for the people. a country that is not controlled by one man but by many. thank you, mr. speaker. i yield back. t

mr. blumenthal a while back made a very candid assessment. blumenthal having been treasury secretary under president carter. he pointed out that no matter how well the intensive than -- intention, the president lacked the will to make the tough decisions necessary to break the back of inflation. let me say i don't think the period in the 80's on inflation and recession will be easy. i think it will be tough for any candidate for president or anything else to say there is a quick and easy fix out there that is wrong. to chart a course, in my course generally would be emphasizing the fundamentals of economics. we have gotten away from that area we have gone to the , spend your way into prosperity economics, i would change it. within a fundamental framework of conservative economics, i would restrict the growth of federal spending. i would compel a congress to do that. if they didn't, i would veto legislation. hold the growth rate to around 6.8%. i would find ways, and this isn't easy but it is at least specific, to cut through the excesses of regulation. some of it right i would get rid of many of the regulat

that again from former democrat president jimmy carter. mr. president, neither can i. the white house claims the president has ended two wars, yet neglects to mention that since the u.s. withdrew from iraq large sections of the country descended into chaos thanks to isis. the president's failure to enforce his red line in syria when president bashar al-assad used chemicals on his people and the president's lack of strategy to defeat isis contributed to a massive refugee crisis with no easy solution. meanwhile assad remains in power and isis continues to thrive. with the terrorist attacks in paris in november, isis expanded its theater of operations beyond the middle east. as we witnessed in the case of the san bernardino shooting, as long as isis continues to exist, its demented ideology will inspire, disturb individuals to commit acts of terror. the united states is in desperate need of a comprehensive strategy to confront the threat posed by isis, yet the president has so far made no move to develop one. on another foreign policy front, the president has repeatedly t

mr. fanning, last month, secretary carter announced that all military occupational specialties will be open to women. i do support providing women with various opportunities to serve in any capacity. as long as we're not lowering standards to allow participation, and that we're not decreasing our combat effectiveness. so in order to ensure that women are fully integrated into these previously closed positions, i believe the implementation strategy must be thoroughly and fully developed to include having an understanding of those secondary and tertiary effects so that we're not setting our women or our men up for failure. over the past few weeks i've had the opportunity to visit with a number of soldiers and marines. i've visited fort bragg, north carolina as well as marine base quantico in virginia. and during my trip to fort bragg i was able to sit down with a number of special operators and airborne paratroopers from the 82nd to discuss the gender integration. and they did the same at quantico. both of these groups were mostly senior-level ncos. some more junior and noncommissioned office

mr. speaker. the idea of a british bill of rights is in the magna carta. as a prelude to the global human movement, thet -- mac and carter should serve as a basis. it states no free man should be taken or imprisoned. in modern terms, slavery. the magna carta specifies no should be deceased of his freehold or liberty, a right to liberty and security one century before the first use of habeas corpus. no freeman should be outlawed, exiled, or destroyed, a guarantee of citizenship and against torture. we should not condemn him but by lawful judgment -- fair trial. these are the principles i wish to see as the foundation for a modern charter. to-six of thecles european convention on human rights. i present to you, friends and carta, the my magna then rights act, instruments enabling people to enforce their convention rights in u.k. courts. far from acquiring a new reworking of the magna carta for 2015, in the human rights act, we already have an effective and comprehensive modern charter for u.k. citizens, a direct descendent of the great charter. tragedyit would be a and to forget to fight for it would be a travesty. thank y
