I would like to point out that this bill, again, has bipartisan support. We have a letter from the National Governors Association, which talks about the need to strengthen higher education, not give more Federal control; and a letter from…
I would like to thank Mr. Andrews for his pointing out that this is a very bipartisan bill, supported by a coalition of many groups. I now would like to yield 2 minutes to my distinguished colleague from Pennsylvania (Mr. Fitzpatrick).
I'd like to yield 2 minutes to the distinguished gentleman from Texas (Mr. Carter).
