Mr. Speaker, it requires the establishment of a civilian protection center of excellence and provides $25 million to implement the civilian harm mitigation response plan. Finally, and more importantly, I thank my subcommittee ranking member, Trent Kelly, for his contribution to this bill and his strong bipartisan work. I also thank my subcommittee staff, Shannon Green, Craig Greene, Will Braden, and Patrick Nevins, and, of course, my MLA Michelle Shevin- Coetzee and defense fellow Charlie Juhl. Mr. Speaker, it is a good bill, and I urge my colleagues to support it.
