Madam Speaker, I just want to point out to my colleague from Massachusetts that the Republicans can't obstruct the President's effort because we are in the minority. And we don't have to obstruct him anyway because they've all failed.

Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to my colleague from Pennsylvania (Mr. Shuster).
