Mr. Speaker, our hearts will be with him during that ceremony and service, and we will all be there for him to lean on us during these next months. At times it is going to be difficult, but we appreciate the fact that he is going to continue to be with us, but probably be leaning on us even more. A wonderful, wonderful family. Mr. Speaker, I would like to shift gears and ask the gentleman about the USMCA trade deal. I know there have been some more negotiations with Ambassador Lighthizer, and just last week, he had sent a letter in response to some of the issues that were raised by the Speaker and her team that is working on USMCA. I know he worked in those weeks after the initial requests were made to try to see how each of those can be addressed, hopefully in a way that allows us to move forward with an actual vote on the House floor on USMCA. Mr. Speaker, I just want to inquire if the gentleman has any timetable or update on where we are in those talks. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman.
