Madam Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time. Madam Speaker, I would just like to point out something that I also think has not been emphasized enough in this discussion, which is how cost-effective this bill is--these amendments only make it more so--and how it will improve the fiscal situation of the United States. We will have more tax revenue when more workers earn more money and get more good jobs. We will have less people who need public assistance. This bill not only provides tremendous opportunities for American workers to earn and learn and avoid debt while they are getting their credentials to get great jobs, but also really it is a very prudent and wise investment on behalf of the American taxpayers. Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
