I thank the ranking member. I believe, Mr. Speaker, that this is a vote for the ages. My constituents in Nebraska are asking me: ``Brad, can we govern? Can we come together? Can we move this country forward?'' What we do here today will determine how we do move forward as a nation. What kind of country do we leave our children?

Please support TAA and TPP and TPA to make life better for all Americans.
