A staunch opponent of communist regimes and critic of foreign aid, he has exerted a major influence in foreign affairs, serving as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee from 1995 until this year.

He frustrated President Clinton (news - web sites) by holding up the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty and was a primary author of a law restricting the ability of American companies to do business with Cuba. He also was a leading force in withholding U.S. dues to the United Nations (news - web sites).

Although he has mellowed in recent years, Helms considers himself a family values stalwart and has often condemned what he called gay lifestyles. He is generally considered unsympathetic to civil rights and the use of tax dollars to subsidize what he considers indecent art.

OUCH!! WE NEED THIS GUY!!
