I want to thank the gentleman from Nebraska (Mr. Smith). We came into Congress at the same time, and it is great we can work on this bill together. It is a commonsense bill. Again, in Iowa, we have over 80 critical access hospitals. The gentleman pointed out the importance that these are small hospitals, 25 or fewer beds. Their resources are limited. I thank the gentleman from Nebraska (Mr. Smith) for supporting this bill. I really appreciate it. I yield back the balance of my time.
