Let me just say, I know the gentleman from Oregon is very passionate, and I respect the gentleman very much, but I do want to say that this amendment ignores the problems of abuse. It sends a false message to our young people across this country that smoking marijuana is healthy. And I strongly urge the rejection of the amendment. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to House Resolution 1067, the previous question is ordered on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Oregon (Mr. Blumenauer). The question is on the amendment. The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that the ayes appear to have it.
