I want to thank my friends Mr. Schweikert and Ms. Eshoo for their work on this bipartisan bill to help small companies grow and expand. As we all know, the American people want to see Congress working together to strengthen our economy and to create jobs. This bill will help companies access the capital they need to pull our Nation out from these tough economic times and put Americans back to work. Additionally, this bill provides the necessary protections investors need to have in order to ensure that they will not be subjected to potential abuses. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to vote for H.R. 1070, a commonsense, bipartisan bill to improve our economy, and I yield back the balance of my time.
