I thank the gentleman. I was quoting, not imputing. Mr. Jordan's comments seem to be pretty clear. Before we conclude, the STOCK Act, Tim Walz had a bill that was ready for markup in the committee. We understand that was pulled. As you know, that bill has 220 cosponsors and is a bipartisan sponsorship.

And I understand that was pulled. I think that was unfortunate. Can the gentleman tell me what the status of that piece of legislation is?
