I would like to add one thing. Given the gravity of the situation with seniors in this country getting scammed out of billions of dollars or more every year, I don't think we can do enough. The only thing I would urge my friend here is, anything we can do to actually protect our seniors, we should be doing because what we are doing now is not working. When I go anywhere, I hear from seniors about these awful instances and stories of what is happening to them on these calls and getting defrauded. I think anything that we can do to help protect our seniors and go the extra mile to help them is critically important. This is a way to do it that I think is effective, efficient, and will get the backs of our seniors, which, to me, is the least we can do for our seniors who have given so much to us. Mr. Chair, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Casten), the sponsor of the bill.
