On the recordMarch 27, 2012
Let me say this: during this debate, we focused on crowdfunding, but I think we're all in agreement that this bill is a great improvement, and we will revisit that. That shouldn't distract from the fact that this is a major piece of legislation that will cause, I think, a great deal of new competition, innovation of new products and services. In my revised remarks, which I intend to submit in the next week, I will highlight biomedical research, which we think has the potential to address some diseases that are rare diseases or degenerative conditions which would really receive a boost from this. So I commend all of our Members. We've come together here, and we've accomplished great things, along with the Senate, the House, and the administration. I yield to the gentlelady from Illinois.
