I first want to express some puzzlement though, and perhaps the sponsor of this amendment can clarify this as she closes. One of the early scribbled versions of this amendment did indeed refer to VIPR teams, and about two-thirds of her statement was about VIPR teams, but my understanding is that the copy of the amendment we now have has had that portion scratched out. So the amendment no longer pertains to VIPR teams. Could I, just for a moment, get some clarification on that. And I yield to the gentlewoman from Tennessee.
