I am incredibly disappointed that we could not include my amendment today. I believe this is an important issue and that it must be clarified. Ultimately, because of the many other critical provisions included in this bill related to foreign policy in the Middle East, I will support this bill today, but I also understand it is unlikely that the House of Representatives will address this bill in its current form.

With that, I would also like to yield some time to my colleague from Michigan. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Michigan.
