Mr. Chairman, I rise in support of this bipartisan en bloc amendment that has the endorsement of my colleagues on both sides of the aisle. Breaking news: This en bloc has proven that Democrats and Republicans can work together and find common solutions--on some things anyway. The amendments set forth in this en bloc highlight the priorities in the Financial Services and General Government bill that address critical policies to strengthen our economy and bolster our workforce, and I look forward to incorporating these amendments into my bill. Mr. Chair, I thank my colleague and good friend Ranking Member Hoyer for his consultation and all Members who have worked with me on this bill. Mr. Chair, I urge a ``yes'' vote on the en bloc amendment, and I reserve the balance of my time.
