I represent Utah. Utah is the home to a lot of women who are entrepreneurs, and I want to make sure that they can compete and succeed.

If the gentleman has opposition and has an offer to define ``actively assisting,'' then that would be great. However, the reality is that what is going to happen is what we have seen happen in the State of Texas where we have a Governor…
