I thank the gentleman. Again, we see the quality and we see who the American people have sent here, people like Andy Biggs. We got started with the REINS Act, a bill that I sponsored that talked about reining in regulations. Andy jumped in with a couple of amendments. He wanted to be a part of the solution to start with. Next up is a gentleman from Kentucky, the First District of Kentucky, Mr. Comer. He comes to us from a farm background. He wore the blue jacket and the green jacket, 4-H and FFA. He was the Commissioner of Agriculture for the State of Kentucky. He has been a legislator. He also is a good friend of my Commissioner of Agriculture, Gary Black. Gary called me up and said there is a good one in Kentucky. I said when Gary says that, we know something good is going on. It is my pleasure, Mr. Speaker, to yield to the gentleman from Kentucky (Mr. Comer).
