I thank my friend. The way to solve this problem is to emulate the example Chairman McKeon and Mr. Smith have given us: have a fair, transparent, open process; debate the issues; make some difficult choices. There are other difficult choices yet to make because of the amendments that are forthcoming. When the Members are given the chance to act in regular order, we can solve problems. Let's have that full and open debate on sequestration; and some day the plan that we're going to pass this week will actually take effect. Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I yield 2 minutes to the gentlelady from South Dakota (Mrs. Noem), my friend and colleague and a member of the Armed Services Committee.
