Does the gentleman from California have anything else to say on the amendment? Mr. McNERNEY. Thank you.

I don't want this to be a whitewash or anything like that. It's important that this analysis be open and that it be fair and balanced, and that's all that we are asking on this side. With that, I yield back the balance of my time.
