Just let me finish, and then I will be delighted to yield. So I want to ask again: This bill is being held up by a Republican Senator from the same State as the majority leader. So, Madam Speaker, a ``no'' vote on this bill by any Member will ensure that children remain in absolute squalor. Stop hiding behind the Senate bill that has not passed. I yield to the gentleman from California. Mr. McCARTHY. Madam Speaker, I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. I appreciate that. I have spoken to the leader on the Senate side, and they will bring it up tomorrow. They had passed this bill in committee 30-1. I ask the gentlewoman: What would be the problem--and I know we have only had 3 hours with this bill. Why would we not take up the Senate bill when it is bipartisan and the President would sign it?
