How much time do we have remaining? The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Georgia has 7\3/4\ minutes remaining, and the gentlewoman from Connecticut has 8 minutes remaining. Ms. DeLAURO. Mr. Speaker, there is no defense for keeping this government closed, and if the majority were serious about funding the NIH in their 2014 appropriations bill, they would have provided it with adequate funds. With that, I yield 1\1/2\ minutes to the gentlelady from New York (Mrs. Lowey), my friend and the ranking member of the Appropriations Committee. {time} 1645
