Mr. Chairman, if I may say so, I, as the gentleman from Colorado and the gentleman from Wisconsin know, opposed the inclusion of this entire title in our bill.

I would therefore say it makes the product better, and would support it for that reason. The gentleman might want to oppose it for exactly the same reason.
