Once again, H.R. 6062 would reinstate the process to approve amendments to the Constitution of American Samoa via approval by the Secretary of the Interior and address concerns of American Samoans. Again, Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank Delegate Radewagen for her work on this legislation. I urge adoption of the bill, and I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion offered by the gentleman from Arkansas (Mr. Westerman) that the House suspend the rules and pass the bill, H.R. 6062. The question was taken; and (two-thirds being in the affirmative) the rules were suspended and the bill was passed. A motion to reconsider was laid on the table. ____________________
