I urge my colleagues to support this legislation, and I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Ms. Blunt Rochester). The question is on the motion offered by the gentlewoman from the District of Columbia (Ms. Norton) that the House suspend the rules and pass the bill, H.R. 1262, as amended.
