I would also like to say that we must pass this bill today, a bill that will finally, finally, bring justice to our veterans and provide our commitment and promise that we made to our veterans who served our country, both men and women. So this bill is long, long overdue. Men and women sign up for the Armed Forces. They know they may have to put their lives on the line. They did not know that they may die of toxic exposures. This bill is long overdue. We need a ``yes'' vote on the amendment and a ``yes'' vote on the underlying bill. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore.

The question is on the amendment offered by the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Brownley). The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that the ayes appeared to have it.
