This bill does not have consensus support from those its proponents claim. Again, as has been stated by Ms. Omar, I join with her in calling on the Senate to continue to work on this bill and focus on the achievements of Senator McCain in terms of protecting boxers' rights that are at risk with this legislation. Again, I would ask for Members to oppose this bill when the time comes up for a vote.
