Mr. Chairman, I urge my colleagues to vote ``no'' on the amendment and ``no'' on the underlying bill, and I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentlewoman from Washington (Ms. Jayapal). The amendment was agreed to. The Acting CHAIR. The Chair understands that the amendment No. 6 will not be offered. Amendment No. 7 Offered by Mr. Beyer The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 7 printed in part B of House Report 116-19.
