Madam Speaker, H.R. 423 is commonsense legislation, just like the previous bill that we looked at. It will enable the Pala Band of Mission Indians to protect their sacred land and ensure the protection of the Tribe's timeless heritage, culture, tradition, and history. I thank my colleague, Mr. Issa, for his leadership and for fulfilling a vital constituent service. Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this legislation, and I yield back the balance of my time.
