I thank the gentleman from Kentucky for speaking. That was outstanding. For anyone who is trying to get caught up with the 101, 201, or 301 of what has been going on over the course of the last few years and hasn't been paying attention, they can just listen to the gentleman's remarks two or three times over and understand, study, ask questions, and get brought completely up to speed as far as what went wrong and how we go forward from here. So I thank the gentleman for participating, for his leadership, and for his great remarks tonight. When I was first elected, I would be at events, and I would let people know about how I have two titles being both the highest ranking Jewish Republican in Congress and the lowest ranking Jewish Republican in Congress. But then the numbers doubled. We went from one to two in 115th. If you are keeping score at home, that means we are on pace so that in January of 2023 there will be a minyan here in the House of Representatives of Jewish Republicans. So we have a little ways to go, but we are blessed to have a freshman who is joining us here tonight from the great State of Tennessee, David Kustoff, whom I guess I will call the cochair of the Jewish Republican caucus of the House of Representatives. He is my friend from Tennessee, a great Member, a great freshman Member, and a great leader and voice on this issue. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Tennessee (Mr. Kustoff).
