Quickly, with all due respect, this amendment has nothing to do with what the gentlewoman is talking about. It has nothing to do with whether our military personnel, including my own son, have the right to vote in elections. This has to do with the weaponization and use of taxpayer dollars to interfere with and manipulate elections. It should not be part of our Federal spending. It should not be something that should be used by partisans in the bureaucracy to try to prime the pump to get more Democrats out to vote and to use it as a get-out-the-vote scheme. It is totally inappropriate. This amendment should be passed by my colleagues, and this executive order should be stricken. Mr. Chair, I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentlewoman from New York (Ms. Tenney). The amendment was agreed to. Amendment No. 144 Offered by Ms. Van Duyne The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 144 printed in part B of House Report 118-272.
