DIRECTING THE REMOVAL OF UNITED STATES ARMED FORCES FROM HOSTILITIES IN 
    THE REPUBLIC OF YEMEN THAT HAVE NOT BEEN AUTHORIZED BY CONGRESS

  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Carson of Indiana). Pursuant to clause 
1(c) of rule XIX, further consideration of the joint resolution (S.J. 
Res. 7) to direct the removal of United States Armed Forces from 
hostilities in the Republic of Yemen that have not been authorized by 
Congress, will now resume.
  The Clerk read the title of the joint resolution.


                            Motion to Commit

  Mr. McCAUL. Mr. Speaker, I have a motion to commit at the desk.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is the gentleman opposed to the joint 
resolution?
  Mr. McCAUL. I am in its current form.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will report the motion to commit.
  The Clerk read as follows:

       Mr. McCaul moves to commit the joint resolution S.J. Res. 7 
     to the Committee on Foreign Affairs with instructions to 
     report the same back to the House forthwith, with the 
     following amendment:
       At the end of section 1, add the following new paragraph:
       (11) It is in the national security interest of the United 
     States to condemn and oppose--
       (A) the Global Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions Movement 
     (BDS Movement) targeting Israel, including efforts to target 
     United States companies that are engaged in commercial 
     activities that are legal under United States law; and
       (B) all efforts to delegitimize the State of Israel.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the rule, the gentleman from 
Texas is recognized for 5 minutes in support of his motion.
  Mr. McCAUL. Mr. Speaker, let me first say that the Yemen resolution 
before us here today is pro-Iran and anti-Israel.
  I rise today to offer a motion stating that it is in the national 
security interest of the United States to oppose the global movement to 
boycott the State of Israel. This motion will not kill the joint 
resolution or send it back to the committee. If adopted, the resolution 
will immediately proceed to final passage.
  As we heard from the powerful speech of the Secretary of NATO 
yesterday, it is in our national interest to work with our allies to 
counter our shared threats and promote our shared values.
  Since its founding in 1948, the United States has stood shoulder to 
shoulder with Israel against enemies that want to destroy it.
  Let's be clear about the BDS movement: It is yet another enemy of 
Israel. It wants to exclude, isolate, and, ultimately, destroy Israel.
  The founder of the BDS movement has stated: ``We oppose a Jewish 
state in any part of Palestine. No Palestinian . . . will ever accept a 
Jewish state in Palestine.''
  The BDS movement is not about equality. It is not about peace. It is 
about undermining negotiation between Israel and the Palestinians, and 
it is about placing all of the blame on one party, and that is Israel.
  We do not support a movement that demands concessions from one party 
alone. We do not stand with a movement that seeks to isolate and shame 
our strongest ally in the Middle East.
  By weakening Israel, the global BDS movement endangers American 
security. When foreign entities like the U.N. foster boycotts against 
Israel, they are interfering with the United States' foreign policy.
  The Senate passed a bill, S. 1, in its wisdom, 2 months ago with 
overwhelming bipartisan support to tackle BDS, better support Israel 
and Jordan, and sanction Assad's brutal regime. Sadly, the House 
Democratic leadership won't let that bill or a House version of that 
bill to this floor for a vote.
  Mr. Speaker, I want to close with this: As the son of a World War II 
veteran, a B-17 bombardier who bombed the Nazis and was part of the D-
day air campaign, it saddens me that we are still struggling here today 
with the same issues that the Greatest Generation defeated.
  Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this motion, and I yield 
back the balance of my time.
  Mr. DEUTCH. Mr. Speaker, I rise in strong opposition to this motion.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Florida is recognized for 
5 minutes.
  Mr. DEUTCH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today with solemn responsibility. I 
carry the legacy of the history of the Jewish people, a history of 
persecution, of discrimination, of scapegoating, but also a history of 
perseverance and survival. The embodiment of that perseverance is the 
establishment of the State of Israel, the home of the Jewish people.
  Mr. Speaker, I strongly condemn the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions 
movement, economic warfare against the State of Israel, and there is no 
one in this Chamber--no one--who would question my commitment to 
opposing BDS or fighting anti-Semitism or supporting our ally, Israel. 
But I also strongly reject what my colleagues are doing here today.
  My colleague, my friend from Texas, is right. There has been a long 
and bipartisan history of support for Israel, and it has been so strong 
because of that bipartisanship.
  This is not a motion to commit about BDS. We have seen this play out 
before. The last time this resolution came up, my colleagues introduced 
a resolution condemning BDS and anti-Semitism and supporting Israel, 
and we all voted for it until it was time to actually go on the record, 
and almost every one of them voted against it.
  This is about politics. This is about trying to drive a wedge into 
this Caucus where it does not belong. That is what they are trying to 
do today.
  Mr. Speaker, the Jewish community also has a history of standing up 
against atrocities like the humanity crisis in Yemen. My colleagues are 
trying to block us from standing in support of our human rights and 
American values to condemn what is happening there. That is what this 
is about. That is why I am opposed to it, and we should all oppose it.
  I yield to the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. Hoyer), the majority 
leader, for his comments.
  Mr. HOYER. Mr. Speaker, I have taken no backseat to my support for 
Israel for half a century. I rise in opposition to this cynical, 
political ploy.
  We are about to vote on a resolution concerning U.S. involvement in 
the conflict in Yemen and how to promote an end to a humanitarian 
crisis in a country that threatens the lives of 22 million people. They 
are hungry. They are displaced. They are scarred by a war and violence. 
This resolution is about them and about what we as a nation can do to 
put a stop to that conflict.
  The gentleman is incorrect. The gentleman did not tell us the truth. 
This kills this resolution.
  In an effort to prevent Congress from taking action on such an 
important issue, however, House Republicans are trying to make this a 
vote about something else; and in doing so, they risk undermining the 
long history of bipartisan consensus supporting our ally, Israel.
  How shameful. How sad.
  The American people will not be fooled or misled by this tactic. Our 
fellow supporters of Israel will not be fooled. No one can accuse me of 
failing to defend the U.S.-Israel partnership and strongly opposing 
BDS.
  Mr. Speaker, I will be voting against this motion, and I urge all of 
my colleagues to do so as well. I urge every single one of them to do 
so.
  And I urge every Republican who believes that using Israel as a 
partisan cudgel is dangerous, cynical, and harmful to Israel to join me 
in voting against this motion.

  Mr. Speaker, none of the major organizations supporting Israel have 
any illusions about what this motion seeks

[[Page H3082]]

to do. Its intention is not to unite, but to divide. Its intention is 
not to support our ally, but to sabotage our resolution about the 
conflict in Yemen. This vote on this motion is a vote to kill this 
joint resolution through a cynical and dishonest tactic.
  So let's move past this charade of a motion. Let's stop playing games 
with this very important and serious issue in support of Israel. Reject 
``gotcha'' politics.
  Let me be clear: For as long as I am majority leader, House Democrats 
will never waiver in our party's steadfast support for a strong Israel 
relationship. Vote ``no.''
  Mr. DEUTCH. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.


                        Parliamentary Inquiries

  Mr. McCARTHY. Mr. Speaker, I have a parliamentary inquiry.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman will state his parliamentary 
inquiry.
  Mr. McCARTHY. Mr. Speaker, will the majority leader schedule S. 1, a 
vote on this floor with his commitment to Israel and his commitment to 
ending BDS?
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman has not stated a proper 
parliamentary inquiry.
  Mr. McCARTHY. Mr. Speaker, further parliamentary inquiry.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman will state his parliamentary 
inquiry.
  Mr. McCARTHY. First, the gentleman did not answer my last. But this 
one, Mr. Speaker, parliamentary inquiry.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman was not stating a proper 
parliamentary inquiry.
  Mr. McCARTHY. Mr. Speaker, parliamentary inquiry.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman will state his parliamentary 
inquiry.
  Mr. McCARTHY. The minority only has one ability to bring something to 
the floor in an MTR. This body wants to have a vote on S. 1.
  Will the majority leader schedule on this floor a vote on BDS?
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman is not stating a proper 
parliamentary inquiry.
  Mrs. LOWEY. Mr. Speaker, as a staunch supporter of the U.S.-Israel 
relationship, I am disgusted by the Republicans' ongoing attempts to 
politicize serious issues related to anti-semitism and support for the 
U.S.-Israel partnership. The vast majority of members on both sides of 
the aisle in this chamber oppose BDS. But that's not what this vote 
today on the motion to recommit was really about.
  What actually occurred here today was a political stunt to sink a 
bill addressing the world's worst humanitarian crisis, which is why I 
voted against the Motion to Recommit. Twenty four million--let me 
repeat: 24 million--desperate Yemenis are in need of humanitarian 
assistance.
  Families are displaced. Children are starving. Lives are in imminent 
danger.
  But instead of working with Democrats to stop U.S. support for the 
Saudi and Emirati coalition that is perpetuating this suffering, 
Republicans politicized the U.S.-Israel relationship in a vote intended 
to ensure this bill cannot pass in the Senate and reach the President's 
desk.
  We know it would kill the bill, of course, because the Senate already 
rejected a similar measure attached to this bill the first time we 
considered it. That measure sought unsuccessfully to create political 
division among Democrats based on anti-semitism. It is particularly 
heinous to politicize hate given the rise in all forms of bias-based 
violence in recent years.
  I have consistently worked to combat BDS and will partner with House 
leadership to ensure that real legislation opposing this divisive 
political movement is brought to the House floor. But I will not give 
legitimacy to these Republican attempts to threaten bipartisan support 
for the U.S.-Israel relationship and leave millions of men, women, and 
children in danger of starvation and death.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the previous question is 
ordered on the motion to commit.
  There was no objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion to commit.
  The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that 
the noes appeared to have it.


                             Recorded Vote

  Mr. McCAUL. Mr. Speaker, I demand a recorded vote.
  A recorded vote was ordered.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 9 of rule XX, the Chair 
will reduce to 5 minutes the minimum time for any electronic vote on 
the question of passage. This is a 5-minute vote.
  The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--ayes 194,
