Ed Royce: “In closing, I would like to thank my colleagues. I would like to thank the ranking member of the Foreign Affairs…”

“In closing, I would like to thank my colleagues. I would like to thank the ranking member of the Foreign Affairs Committee, Mr. Engel, but I would also like to thank Mr. Eagle over there, Brendan Boyle, and I would like to thank Ileana Ros-Lehtinen as well. Jordan, of course, is a key partner in our struggle against ISIS and against the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps and other destabilizing actors in the Middle East. This bill supports our joint efforts on the battlefield and will help Jordan achieve much-needed economic growth. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this bill and, once again, extend the arm of friendship to our closest partner, Jordan. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Brendan F. Boyle) be allowed to reclaim his unused time, and I reserve the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the gentleman from California? There was no objection.”
