Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. I rise in strong support and congratulate Congressmen Jared Huffman and Doug LaMalfa. This is a good piece of legislation, and I have to go back through history a little bit. Being originally from California 63 years ago, I remember Trinity County as one of the richer counties when we had a timber industry, and Weaverville was one of the largest timber cities in the country, but it is no longer. It is really a very poor county because of the management of Federal lands and how they do not manage them. Again, I compliment the two Congressmen for working on this legislation, and I urge the passage of the bill. I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion offered by the gentleman from Alaska (Mr. Young) that the House suspend the rules and pass the bill, H.R. 3326, as amended. The question was taken; and (two-thirds being in the affirmative) the rules were suspended and the bill, as amended, was passed. A motion to reconsider was laid on the table. ____________________
