I can say, and I am sure my colleagues would agree, your service in the Congress has been enormously beneficial because you have been perhaps one of the strongest advocates on behalf of those with mental illness. And certainly, your service in the Navy Reserve as a psychologist is one of the reasons when you get up to talk, people listen. So we are certainly accepting of your amendment and acknowledge your very, very strong and well-reasoned advocacy. Our bill, of course, does make investments. This will make more investments, and we look forward to working with you and relying on your expertise and your advocacy. I thank you for yielding.
