Thank you very much, Mr. Tonko. In previous weeks, you and I and Mr. Ryan and Mr. Castro have had the pleasure of talking on this floor about putting people to work, about jobs, about creating the infrastructure, the education, the training that's necessary to move Americans, but this week, we find ourselves caught up in this leveraging of the necessity of funding government and of paying our bills--the debt limit--and using that as a lever to destroy a very important law that provides real benefits to every American. Mr. Castro, we thank you for joining us. We know that Texas was much discussed in the previous hour. I am sure that you have some thoughts about all of this, so please join us. Thank you very much.
