                         RECLAIM OUR INTEGRITY

  (Mrs. RAMIREZ asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mrs. RAMIREZ. Mr. Speaker, what I said 6 months ago couldn't be more 
true today. I said that we need a permanent cease-fire to save lives 
and bring lasting peace.
  Yet, today, over 33,000 Palestinians have been killed, 13,000 
children robbed of a future, and 340 doctors and aid workers are dead. 
One million are on the brink of famine. Ninety-five journalists and 
media workers are dead. After 188 days, 100 hostages are still not 
home.
  When will we see the irony of facilitating aid airdrops while we are 
also supplying airstrikes? How long before we stop arming Netanyahu to 
wage a brutal war against civilians?
  We have to reclaim our integrity. Not one more dollar, not one more 
bomb, and not another excuse for an extremist who prides himself on the 
starvation and the death of children. Not anymore.
