“I congratulate the sponsor and cosponsor once again on this vital and valuable bill. As we see the kinds of, really, unheard of events we are experiencing, it seems to us often that phones and cell phones are so 20th century. Twitter and Facebook are the functional equivalent for many Americans of 911. So today on this floor, I think we are resolved that social media are, to be sure, often about fun and games, but they may also be about life and death. I am pleased to support this bill and ask Members for its support here in the House. I yield back the balance of my time.”
