I didn't yield yet. I simply say to my friend, had I instructed or the leader instructed, that outcome may have been different. However, there are some really substantive issues that we had, we had for a long time, we negotiated for a long time, and we didn't reach agreement. My question to you was: Are they offset? I think your answer was, yes, they were offset, and then you proceeded to tell me what the offsets were. Now, let me ask you a follow-up question to that. Does the gentleman know whether the repeal of IPAB is offset? That is a $17 billion deficit creation item. Is it offset? I yield to my friend. Mr. McCARTHY. If the gentleman's question is if IPAB is offset, it doesn't need to be.
