I am prepared to close. Mr. McHENRY. Mr. Chair, I yield myself the balance of my time. Mr. Chair, this is a failure of bipartisan policymaking, and this is a sad day. I am not angry. I appreciate Chairwoman Waters attempting to strike a bipartisan deal. In fact, we had a deal, and we filed that bill. It is H.R. 3407 that encouraged Members to sign the discharge petition so we can actually support something that was a bipartisan negotiation, not this bill before us today that doesn't take on the important work of banning Chinese state-owned enterprises from accessing our export credit agency. That is what this is about. So I ask my colleagues to vote ``no'' on this very important measure of international export activities, and I yield back the balance of my time. {time} 1530
