                       THE RISE OF ANTI-SEMITISM

  (Mr. LaMALFA asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. LaMALFA. Mr. Speaker, it is incredible the amount of anti-
Semitism that is rising up in this country and around the world, at a 
time when we preach tolerance, equity, and so many other things related 
to that, that we would have this wave of anti-Semitism coming out 
against Jewish people that is done brazenly in the light of day, on our 
college campuses, our media, and even across the street a couple weeks 
ago when they blocked off Independence Avenue, ostensibly for rights 
for others.
  Here we are. We have an alliance with the country of Israel, which is 
extremely important for us. Look at the partnerships we have with the 
United States and Israel in developing technology, for saving water in 
agriculture, medical technology, and, yes, important technology for 
defense systems, our Patriot missiles and their Iron Dome when we work 
together.
  It is imperative that we continue our alliance with Israel, and this 
package of $14 billion, instead of going to the IRS, goes to help the 
country of Israel.
