Mr. President. Senate Democrats are proposing important legislation to help combat the threat of ISIS and to keep Americans safe. It would strengthen the security of the Visa Waiver Program and close the terrorist gun loophole. I am a cosponsor of these efforts. We need to respond to the threat of ISISwherever it existsand we need to work with our international partners to combat this barbaric terrorist group. The President has adopted a limited and necessary military response. We stand here. elected by our constituents to give weight to their voices in our democracy. I hear from Vermonters every week concerned about the threat of ISIS.
