I, too, want to recognize my colleague from Texas (Ms. Jackson Lee) for having the coolest scarf in the House today, the American flag. Bipartisanship has broken out in the Senate. They passed H.R. 3401, as amended, 84-8. I am now happy to report to the House that bipartisanship has broken out on the floor of the House of Representatives, for I am announcing that 23 Democrats and 23 Republicans from the Problem Solvers Caucus have just issued the following statement: ``Given the humanitarian crisis at the border, the Problem Solvers Caucus is asking for the immediate consideration on the House floor today of H.R. 3401, as amended by the Senate.'' We now are certain that H.R. 3401 will pass. I ask us to let the bipartisanship spread to the rest of this House and put an end to this now, once and for all, and get the help to the border that is so badly needed. Mr. McGOVERN. Madam Speaker, may I inquire how much time is remaining. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Ms. Jackson Lee). The gentleman from Massachusetts has 4 minutes remaining. The gentleman from Oklahoma has 8\1/4\ minutes remaining. Mr. McGOVERN. Madam Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from California (Mr. Cardenas).
