I commend my friend from Connecticut for taking the time tonight. I thank him for sharing some of that time with me. I commend him for his eloquence.

I commend the gentleman from Connecticut (Mr. Larson) for the hard work he has put into preparing this and his energy in finding cosponsors and moving the legislation along.
