Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Madam Speaker, I want to join my colleague, Congresswoman Foxx, in thanking Mr. Hurd, Mr. Connolly, and Congresswoman Kelly for all the hard work that they put into this legislation. So often in our Congress, we are blessed to have somebody like Mr. Hurd, who is very, very familiar with these sometimes very complex issues, and he brings just a reasonable approach to coming up with bipartisan solutions to the problems that are facing our country and, just as significant, bringing solutions that will prevent problems from happening. So I want to thank him for working so hard on this, along with our colleagues, Mr. Connolly and Ms. Kelly. Again, Madam Speaker, I urge all of our Members to vote in favor of this bill. It is a significant piece of legislation. Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
