Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, in closing, I would like to thank my colleagues--Ted Lieu, a hardworking member of our Foreign Affairs Committee, and Ted Yoho, chairman of the Subcommittee on Asia and the Pacific--for crafting this bipartisan legislation. By unleashing the expertise of patriotic hackers, this bill will help the State Department identify and patch vulnerabilities on its computer systems. The Hack Your State Department Act takes an innovative approach to improving network security at a Department that is in such desperate need of new solutions and improved capabilities. Mr. Speaker, I urge passage of this bipartisan bill, and I yield back the balance of my time.
