There are a lot of important issues we can discuss on the floor. This is one of them, clearly. But we should be discussing a much larger issue, the issue of border security and stopping the flow. 144 pounds of fentanyl seized at the border, that could kill the entire population of the United States. This is the amount we seized. It is unbelievable that Congress can't act to control the flow of drugs across our southern border, because we are playing politics with our children's lives now. Madam Chair, we should bring the supplemental bill to the floor as soon as possible. As the gentleman from South Carolina suggested, we are ready to go all night. Let's bring it to the floor. House leadership can bring it to the floor tonight. Let's go ahead. Madam Chair, I yield back the balance of my time.
