Madam President, I thank the Senator from Pennsylvania. If you want to go home on time, if you want to take something home to give to the American people that they want and they need, then you will vote with me and the other Members who have spoken on the Over-the- Counter Monograph bill today. There are sunscreens on the market in Europe that are 12 years short of being on the market in America all because of an antiquated approval system to make sure they are safe but to get them to the market in time. It is about time we ended melanoma, and it is about time we got American consumers what they want. It is about time we settle the problem. It has been a problem for a long time. So I ask you--in fact, I plead with you--to vote for this bill, and you will make everybody happy, nobody mad, and you will save a life. There is nothing better than that. I yield the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from North Carolina.
