Key Excerpts on Peace in the Middle East:

Sen. Jim Banks (R-Ind.): "Well, this is the only thing Iranians understand, and that is the full force of the American military; they have to feel the pain, as you heard Secretary Rubio say. You can't make a deal with these people because they always break it. They won't keep a deal until they know there is truly hell to pay. We have had 12 nights in a row of strikes in Iran, each night tougher than the night before, and President Trump is saying you haven't seen anything yet."

"This is what Peace through Strength is all about. We've got to hold them accountable. The Iranians are used to tough talk from Obama and Biden and former presidents, but with President Trump, they're dealing with threats the president is going to keep. He's going to do what he said he was going to do. There is still more hell to pay if they do come to the table, do the right thing and end their nuclear program and stop funding their proxy terrorist groups."

Key Excerpts on Supplemental Funding:

"That's such an important part of this. The Democrats are blocking funding for our military; this isn't political; this isn't controversial; this isn't President Trump asking for money for our military. This is each branch of the military saying this is what we need to restore our munitions, keep our troops safe, and win the war. And the democrats are blocking that funding; they are politicizing something that shouldn't be political, and that's the safety of our men and women in uniform. It's completely shameful."
