The gentleman from Alabama mentioned the word ``obstruction.'' And, Mr. Speaker, I would like you to consider--and, Mr. Speaker, I would like the American people to consider--who and which party is obstructing here when there is a very simple request for a vote that so many Members of this body feel fervently about. Those who stand in the way of that vote are those who are obstructing, not those who simply seek a vote to prevent terrorists from acquiring explosives and firearms. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Roybal- Allard) for the purpose of a unanimous consent request.
