This package before us cannot be the final word. Congress needs to approve funding to develop a comprehensive response to this epidemic and save lives. Mr. Speaker, if we defeat the previous question, I will offer an amendment to the rule to bring up legislation that, in addition to including all of the opioid bills passed this week, which I do support, will also provide $600 million in funding to address the opioid epidemic.

The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the gentleman from Colorado? There was no objection.
