I just really want to thank Chairman Simpson and Ranking Member Kaptur for allowing us to offer this amendment tonight. I really want to thank my colleague, Mr. Huizenga, for his incredible passion and his ability to move this forward in a way that was acceptable tonight. I think our ports and waterways across this country will thank the gentleman, but more importantly, I really believe that, when our ports and waterways are strong, this country will be strong, and I thank the gentleman very much for that. I urge all my colleagues to support the Huizenga-Hahn amendment. I yield back the balance of my time.
