Ileana Ros-Lehtinen: “Thank you very much. Mr. Weber of Texas is recognized.”

This important bill would extend this longstanding bipartisan lifesaving program for another 5 years.

It's important to note Ranking Member Engel's BURMA Act, which still needs to be passed and that aims to impose additional sanctions.

I add my support for all the measures before us today.

I am proud to yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Conaway), the chairman of the Committee on Agriculture and the author of this measure.
