Mr. Chairman, pursuant to section 3 of h. Res. 500, as a dessingny of chairman frelinghuysen, i rise to offer en bloc number 4 as part of the consideration of division g of h. R. 3354. The list of the amendments included in the en bloc is at the desk. And has been agreed to by both sides. The chair the clerk will designate the amendment en bloc.

The chair recognizes the gentleman from kentucky. Mr. Rogers mr. Chairman, i yield two minutes to the gentleman from michigan, mr. Mitchell. The chair the gentleman is recognized for two minutes. Mr. Mitchell mr. Chairman, i rise to support my amendment within the en bloc amendments as a step to protect the great lakes Ontario Power Generation company has proposed to build an underground Nuclear Waste facility along the shores of lake hereon which borders my district. Their plan is nothing short of irresponsible. Any failure at this site would have devastating impacts on michigan and canada, who rely on the great lakes for drinking water, tourism and commerce. Canada and o. P. G. Have displayed intransigence in the face of the near universal objection of my constituents and many of the residents of the great lakes region. My amendment serves to further highlight to the canadian government the gravity of this issue. The International Joint commission was developed to resolve binational water disputes between the United States and canada, yet they have not addressed this critical issue for the great lakes. My amendment would prohibit staff from attending or participating in an annual canadian Water Resources conference ironically titled, our common water future. Prohibiting staff from attending this conference does not substantially relate to the i. G. C. s core mission of protecting shared waters but it sends an Important Message to our neighbors in canada. Its time for our canadian neighbors to take this threat seriously. Thank you and yield back. The chair the gentleman reserves, the gentlelady from new york is recognized. Mrs. Lowey im pleased to yield one minute to the gentleman from illinois, mr. Schneider, a member of the Foreign Affairs committee. The chair the gentleman from illinois is recognized for one inute. Mr. Schneider i rise in support of my amendment, included in this en bloc package. Ensure the would xistence of an envoy to combat antisemitism. Antisemitism is still alive and well throughout the world. Just last month in france, omeone attacked a jew, yell, kill the jew. Providing adequate staff for this envoy is incredibly important as they continue to fight antisemitism around he world. I thank my colleagues for including my amendment in the en bloc amendment and ask everyone vote for it. I yield back. The chair the gentleman yields back, the gentlelady reserve the gentleman from kentucky is recognized. Mr. Rogers i yield one minute to the gentleman from california the gentleman from california, mr. Valadao. The chair the gentleman is recognized. Mr. Valadao i rise in support of my amendment. As a result of land mines laid during the war, the men, women, and children of the region have lived their lives under the constant threat of crippling injury or death from exploding mines. Ot only have many victims have many families lost loved ones as a result of land mine accidents, families have their entire livelihood suffered. The halo trust has cleared more than approximately 90 of the minefields scattered throughout the area. According to the organization, million will be required to make the region minefree by 2020. My amendment will help secure 1. 5 million to be used as an important down payment for thevert. Mr. Speaker, ensuring families of the area can live without fear of land mine accidents is indisputable and i urge my colleagues to support my amendment. The chair the gentleman yields back. The gentleman from kentucky reserves. The gentlewoman from new york is recognized. Mrs. Lowey i am very pleased to yield one minute to the gentlewoman from california, mrs. Torres a member of the foreign affair committees. The chair the gentlewoman is recognized for one minute. Mrs. Torres thank you, mr. Chairman. I rise to offer my amendment to this appropriations bill. This amendment would strengthen the International Commission against impunity in guatemala and the mission to support fight corruption and impunity in honduras. It would exempt both institutions from the conditions placed by the u. S. On Central America. I am strongly supportive of conditions to aid to Central America but the conditions must not interfere with the work of these groups which have been valuable allies in the fight against corruption and have held the people of honduras and guatemala, have helped them work toward a more secure and prosperous future. I urge my colleagues to support this amendment. I yield back. The chair the gentlewoman yields back. The gentlewoman from new york reserves. The gentleman from kentucky is recognized. Mr. Rogers i reserve. The chair the gentleman reserves. The gentlewoman from new york is recognized. Mrs. Lowey mr. Chairman, i rise in strong support of this amendment. I do support the en bloc amendment and i appreciate the chairmans inclusion of amendments from democratic members as well. Im very pleased that the en bloc includes a procedural amendment to allow me to discuss mr. Eportation status of jackie pallez, a former nazi guard. I filed an amendment that would have directly addressed the deportation status of this man but it was ruled out ofed or by the rules committee. The u. S. State out of order by the rules committee. The u. S. State Department Must ensure that justice is served nd that mr. Pallez is held accountable for his crimes. He served as a guard at a nazi camp. The camp was the site of untold atrocities, including the deaths of thousands of blameless victims at the hand of nazi of the nazi regime. Mr. Pallezs role at the camp served the nazi regime by trapping, men by trapping men, women, and children in inhumane conditions, where they waited for their untimely death. Pallez e holocaust, mr. Came to the United States where he omitted his service at the nazi camp and eventually became a u. S. Citizen. When his crimes during the holocaust came to light, the United States stripped him of his citizenship, but he continues to reside in new york as poland, germany, and ukraine have each declined to take him. I believe that it is time for
