Howard Berman: “I have no further requests for time; and with the urging that the body do pass this, and hopefully pass this…”

I think this is a very historic piece of bipartisan legislation. Just as Jackson-Vanik became a tool to deal with one aspect of a horrible set of policies by the Soviet Union during the Cold War, we now, using the Magnitsky legislation…

If we are going to want to make sure that our diplomats are secure, then we have to pony up the money.

I have no further requests for time, and I urge support for the legislation. I yield back the balance of my time.

At the point where I am recognized, I will be also seeking unanimous consent for the same kind of referral of time to your control.
