For the purpose of closing. In conclusion, let me say that the U.S.-Argentina relationship is critical, and I stand in strong support of H. Res. 54. Argentina's new President, Mauricio Macri, has done a tremendous job reforming their outdated and isolationist economic policies. Most importantly, the Macri administration has renewed its efforts to find the long sought after justice for the bombing of the AMIA Jewish Cultural Center, whose perpetrators are still evading justice. His efforts have improved the lives of countless Argentines, and I look forward to working with his government to continue building on the progress we have already made. I urge my colleagues to join me in supporting this resolution and thank them all for their support. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
