                AMERICA GRIEVES WITH THE BELGIAN PEOPLE

  (Mr. CHABOT asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. CHABOT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to share in the grief of the 
Belgian people after yesterday's horrific acts of terror that claimed 
the lives of over 30 innocent people and injured more than 200, some of 
whom were Americans, and to lend my voice to a call for action.
  We, the Representatives of the American people, condemn the latest 
barbarity by the scum called ISIS. It should be clear to all that these 
terrorists are at war with the West. But are we at war with them? The 
actions by this administration at least thus far say no.
  These terrorist thugs will continue to rape, pillage, and murder 
until they are destroyed. The United States and our allies are long 
overdue in doing just that.
