This bill, H.R. 1713, encourages more permanent, coordinated communications between those who focus on agriculture and our national security experts at CFIUS. I commend the gentleman from Oklahoma for his work on the committee on so many different issues. I urge my Republican colleagues not only to support this bill but to support the activities of the Department of Agriculture, including SNAP, food inspections, and other efforts designed to make sure that our food supply is safe, available, and secure. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this bill, and I yield back the balance of my time.
