PETER KING AND THE IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL
PETER KING AND THE MEXICAN DRUG CARTELS
PETER KING ON PRESIDENT TRUMP'S POLICIES TOWARD N. KOREA AND CHINA
Please think carefully about your question and have it prepared to discuss in class on Friday November 3rd.
ReplyDeleteObviously when dealing with foreign dignitaries conflicting interests can create a challenge, but how much of an obstacle is the language barrier when meeting with these individuals
ReplyDeleteThey have translators Kevin so this may not be the best question. Perhaps asking him how does a Congressman deal with foreign relations?
DeleteWhat issues are you most passionate about, what interests have the most impact on you and your job?
ReplyDeleteInteresting I'd be curious how he answers this one?
DeleteWhat foreign issue do you believe is the biggest threat to national security?
ReplyDeleteHe's going to say North Korea? Maybe think the other way...what security concerns should we be concerned about that the media doesn't cover?
DeleteDo you think New York will lose deductions on state income and property taxes if the tax reform bill is passed?
ReplyDeleteAsk this!!!
DeleteWhat do you think is the best way to handle the current problems between the US and North Korea?
ReplyDeleteI see signs about the Constitutional Convention and a lot of signs say “Vote No.” Can you explain what this is. How would you vote and why?
After the most recent terrorist attack in the city, what is the best thing our country can do to protect ourselves?
I know President Trump does not think that climate change is a legitimate problem, what is your opinion on it?
Ask about the Constitutional Convention....I'M VERY CURIOUS ABOUT THIS ONE.
DeleteIf you were given the chance to have any other role in the government, what would it be and why?
ReplyDeleteMaybe load the question as to whether or not he hoped to be in the President's Cabinet
DeleteYou have made it clear through many circumstances military action should be a last resort for our country but a necessary action in means of protection. In reguards to foreign aid do you believe President Trump needs to seek authorization from Congress the next time he wants to strike Seria? Would you vote for or against such military force?
ReplyDeleteGreat question...Syria...I make lots of typos too. Seriously this is the only question about Syria so given the opportunity ask it.
DeleteBased on your recent voting record, what made you vote yes on the American Healthcare Act when it's CBO score stated that it would leave 23 million Americans uninsured by 2026?
ReplyDeleteWith the Trump administrations recent action to expand employers rights to deny birth control, will you be issuing any public statements or legislation encouraging businesses to put birth control into their health insurance plans
Ask your birth control question....no one else thought to ask about that.
DeleteI understand you have pushed for declaring English as the United States' national language and tried to require that all government services be conducted in English, why is it so important to you to limit the country to one language when it is founded on a conglomerate of many languages and cultures? How does it benefit the United States?
ReplyDeleteHow did you vote for the reauthorizing of the Violence Against Women Act while also voting against the Employment Non-Discrimination Act?
If the North Korean public was not indoctrinated how do you believe the rhetoric used towards the country would have to change?
Ask your second question. Perhaps clarify the contradiction you are alluding to?
DeleteWith security at the mexican boarder being a heavily discussed issue since President Trumps inaguration, are alternate suggestions being made to combat the issue besides a boarder wall?
ReplyDeleteGreat ask this!!!!!

ReplyDeleteYou have criticized the Senate's healthcare bill in the past due to its severity regarding Medicaid cuts and that it will negatively impact many New Yorkers currently under Medicaid. How would you respond to the argument that eliminating government subsidies of healthcare, like Medicaid, would create competitive markets and increase opportunities and benefits for consumers?
ReplyDeleteWith regards to the President's strategy for foreign policy with North Korea, you have stated in the past that, in the presence of evidence that N.K. is planning an attack, you would support a pre-emptive strike. Would the nature of that strike be "boots on the ground" or a nuclear attack, drone attack, or what specifically do you believe would be the best course of military action in that case?
There are a lot of students asking about North Korea...ask the health care question
DeleteWith the rising tension between North Korea and the U.S. how close are we to war?
ReplyDeleteHow well developed is North Korea's nuclear program?
Just yesterday (Sunday) the pentagon released its causulty estimates should the US have to go to war with North Korea. In light of that report, would you support Military action in North Korea?...will it be necessary?...how close are we to war?

ReplyDeleteMexico's economical future is perceived to be very promising as they are one of the leading oil producers
and have a growing industrial region. However their growth will take time and expenses to get up to that point. We, the US, are very closely tied to Mexico and their economy. Keeping in mind that our taxes is what is paying for many of Mexico's reforms, should we continue aiding Mexico in hope of their prospective growth, or should we step out of their affairs?
Excellent questoin feel free to ask this one.
DeleteI know that you are a big supporter of Donald Trump. Trump basically calls all news that does not support him fake news. Do you agree with Trump on this?
ReplyDeleteThere has been a lot of the use "fake news" it seems as if the President tends to call stories that make him look bad "fake news" and stories that benefit him good reporting. Do you agree or disagree?
