I'm on the Armed Services Committee, which gives me the opportunity to get involved on some of these international issues. My focus is, as you know, on the economic issues and budget issues.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I work on the Armed Services and Foreign Relations committees to keep us safe at home and strong in the world.
In the Armed Services Committee, we endeavored to put forth proposals that would help alleviate some of that stress, both for the troops and for their families.
I look forward to taking on issues regarding the Constitution, intellectual property, terrorism, and other legal and regulatory reforms.
I'm focusing on the issues that bring people together and build broad majorities.
I'm a member of the US committee o the United Nations.
I very, very much want to be involved in helping those senators, congressmen, and women who support the principles that made America great.
So I've gone in and out of the U.N., working on counter-terrorism, on U.N. reform, on peacekeeping, peace and security issues, many things through the years but always with a strong interest in humanitarian issues, and human rights issues as well.
I've served on the International Relations Committee.
In general, it should be in our interest to get organizations out of military activity and into politics.
I have a lot of interests in global issues, as you know, humanity, inequity, arms control, and I continue to be active on all these issues.
