Before you leave, Congressman Lipinski, let me first of all say thanks. I'm very deeply grateful to you for two things. One is your personal friendship. The second is the gift of your leadership on these essential American issues. I think most American people want to see what we just did: Republicans and Democrats standing right here and focusing on that which can be constructively achieved for the greater good. So for you providing that example of strong bipartisanship in this effort, I'm very grateful. Thank you so much. Mr. Speaker, may I inquire as to how much time we have remaining. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Cook). The gentleman has 12\1/2\ minutes remaining.
