Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I thank the witnesses for being with us today. Excellent testimony, as we're trying to solve the problem that some of us have been dealing with for a long time.

We owe it to them to set aside our political differences and come to the table to find a bipartisan solution that secures their future.
