The world today is changing rapidly, and we are helping to make it better for our children's future.
agency improvement coordination
I have noticed a marked improvement in FEMA and with the coordination of FEMA and the State agencies.
security-systems benefits pay
Under the current pay-as-you-go Social Security system, not one person is actually guaranteed benefits.
long lists reform
The list of non-democratic regimes that have seen significant reforms since 2001 is long and significant.
women numbers needs
I have the highest number of Social Security recipients of any Member of Congress, and it is always good to hear about how women in their districts are affected by any changes, by the need for changes in Social Security.
women elderly income
In fact, Social Security is the only source of income nationwide for 29 percent of unmarried elderly women.
women passing-away benefits
The women who pass away before they receive Social Security, for them this is nothing but a tax from which they or their family will never receive a benefit.
rights shadow world
For centuries, the world has heard the oppressed, the downtrodden and the vulnerable cry out for their freedoms, for their rights and for a chance to emerge from the shadows of the tyranny and bloodshed that they had lived with.
government belief faith-in-god
American government was founded on a belief and a faith in God and in doing what is right and just.
government kuwait voice
While Kuwait is not a democracy, giving only half the population a voice in their government is not a policy this Congress should support and one that I am glad that Kuwait's leaders are changing.

Part of the redesign of FEMA is that they have so many people on standby, whether it is a retired nurse or a doctor who will take time off to go exactly where they are needed.
aggravation issues important
No issue is more important to this Congress than securing our borders and protecting our homeland, and I guarantee it is very important to our constituents.
rights aggravation office
Since President Bush took office in 2001, this Congress has supported an agenda of democracy, freedom and expansion of rights for all peoples throughout the world.
class house citizens
No longer should women be denied the right to vote, no longer should women be treated as second class citizens, no longer should women not be allowed to be a citizen at all.
