Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time. Mr. Speaker, this bill signals that the United States will not tolerate the use of state violence to extract profit from the bodies of the persecuted. I thank my friend, the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Perry), along with his bipartisan cosponsors for their leadership on this critical human rights issue. Mr. Speaker, I urge strong support of this legislation, and I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion offered by the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Mast) that the House suspend the rules and pass the bill, H.R. 1540. The question was taken; and (two-thirds being in the affirmative) the rules were suspended and the bill was passed. A motion to reconsider was laid on the table. ____________________
