“In closing, I want to again acknowledge the bipartisan work of the Select Committee on the Modernization of Congress. As a body, we haven't focused on the need for internal reforms to improve our work for the American people, and the Select Committee on the Modernization of Congress has enabled us to focus on reforms and improvements that are necessary to better serve our constituents. It may be true, if you read the reports, some of this is boring. Boring is good. To get these things done in a very thoughtful, collaborative way so the system works better, so we can serve our constituents better, it has been a pleasure to work here, both as a member of the Select Committee and certainly as chair of the House Administration Committee charged with implementing many of these recommendations. Mr. Speaker, I urge that all of us support H. Res. 756, and I yield back the balance of my time.”
