On the recordDecember 6, 2011
I appreciate Speaker Boehner, Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee Chair Lieberman, and Oversight and Government Reform Chair Issa, as well as my good colleague on the other side of the aisle, the subcommittee chairman, Mr. Gowdy, I appreciate that all of them have worked with us and have consulted with us on these technical changes, and I do not oppose this bill. I yield back the balance of my time.
