I wish to express my appreciation to the chairman for working so constructively to develop this amendment, to build a consensus, and to give a strong measure of assurance to the small business community about the intent of this legislation so it doesn't create unintended consequences. I appreciate all he has done to make sure this amendment could be considered and hopefully adopted.
The speaker is expressing gratitude for collaboration on an amendment related to small business legislation.

What is needed is honest, fact-based discussion and a genuine bipartisan commitment to solutions.
