Thank you, Mr. Rahall. Mr. Speaker, transportation moves our economy, and modern infrastructure is a path to jobs and prosperity. I will vote for this stopgap measure, but I want to echo the words of my colleagues on both sides of the aisle who have called for a long-term, sustainable fix of our highway trust fund so that the United States of America can compete in the world's market.

So, folks, between the budget cuts and the abortion restrictions, those of us who live in red States are going to have a hard time finding gynecologists who deliver babies and who take care of them.
There are 25 million women in this country of reproductive age who now live in States where abortion is banned or severely restricted.
I am going to say it again. Since the overturning of Roe v. Wade, one-third of women in this country of reproductive age have lost access to legal abortion.
