The wait is 700 days. That is like putting a Band-Aid on a gaping wound. I look forward to addressing this crisis, but this bill is not the solution. If they were serious about solving the problem, Democrats would include additional funding to take care of our law enforcement, which is working so hard to address the crisis, and they would include additional funding to reduce the court backlog. It is time to get serious about the crisis. It is time to offer real solutions. Mr. McGOVERN. Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
