H.R. 2199 was introduced by the gentlewoman from the District of Columbia (Ms. Norton) and went through our subcommittee and the full committee, and I am pleased that the technical amendment from the Senate has come over because this is truly a Police Coordination Act and very needed. What it does is it allows the Federal law enforcement agencies to enter into a cooperative agreement with the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia, thus enhancing the safety and security of the residents and travelers in the District of Columbia. I urge this Congress to adopt unanimously the H.R. 2199, as amended.
