Sam Farr: “Thank you Chairman Fleming and Ranking Member Sablan for holding a hearing on the Marine Debris Act Reauthorization…”

So here we are going to take all our staff, and you have got to go through double, triple inspection, but Members can walk in here with a weapon and you don't even know if they have it, to get away with it.

Isn't that part of your role under your responsibility to know?

I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. This is probably the last time I rise on this floor to speak after 23 years of serving here. It may take me a little more than 5 minutes.

Well, interesting? It is essential.
