On the recordMay 12, 2021
Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time. Mr. Speaker, I thank both Representative Escobar and Representative Gonzales for their leadership to right this wrong, this injustice. I thank the dean of the House, Representative Young, for his very informative history lesson on the legislation. I also thank Ranking Member Westerman for his bipartisan support. Mr. Speaker, I urge our colleagues to support the legislation, and I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Cuellar). The question is on the motion offered by the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Soto) that the House suspend the rules and pass the bill, H.R. 2208. 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. ____________________
