Once again, I encourage all Members to support this legislation and send our colleague, Mr. Connolly, our best wishes and prayers. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time. Mr. McGARVEY. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time. Mr. Speaker, I also ask my colleagues to join me in passing H.R. 1912, the Veteran Fraud Reimbursement Act of 2025. Before I yield back, I do want to express my deepest appreciation and admiration for the sponsor of this bill, Representative Connolly. Representative Connolly has been a faithful and passionate servant of the American people for decades, both through his time as a congressional staffer and then as a Representative of his beloved State of Virginia. Unfortunately, he cannot be with us today. Anybody who knows Representative Connolly knows he is a bulldog, he is a fighter, and he is tenacious. He is facing some serious health challenges right now. Mr. Speaker, I know you will join me and Representative Bergman and everyone else in wishing him the absolute best as he is in this fight. I know he has got it, and we are with him. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
