“I thank the gentleman. Mr. McDERMOTT. Mr. Speaker, in closing, I would only point out that this bill has been supported by the Child Welfare League of America, Children's Defense Fund, Catholic Charities, Conferences of State Court Administrators and Chief Justices, the Center For Law and Social Policy, Fight Crime, Invest in Kids, the Mentoring Partnership, the National Indian Child Welfare Association, the National Congress of American Indians, the Association of American Indian Affairs. Mr. Speaker, I think it is a good bill, and it ought to pass by a voice vote. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.”
