I do not believe that we're going to be forgetting this, nor will we be backing off. The first order of business this morning issued a bill draft request to repeal this legislation that passed the House last night, the Senate version of the bill. I'll continue to work on that cause and work to have legislation that can repeal the Senate version of the bill and can be converted into a discharge petition that can then bring a repeal to the floor of the House. There are 212 House Members who voted against it. That means if they will all stick to their convictions... we would be able to bring a repeal to the floor of the House. That's one of my efforts, Madam Speaker. And I intend to remain committed to that.
