On this bill and other bills, I think there is a fundamental difference between the way some of my Democratic colleagues believe and what fellow Republicans and I believe.

Madam Chair, I ask my colleagues to support the amendment, and I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR (Ms. DeGette).
