I stand in support of the Ex-Im Bank. Hundreds of families in New York's Capital Region face uncertainty after one of the largest employers had to move jobs to France because its contracts needed a government-backed loan guarantee that the Ex-Im Bank would have provided. I thank my colleagues on the other side of the aisle for their leadership. It is too bad that it took procedural gymnastics to finally receive a vote on a bill with such broad, bipartisan support. Look what we can accomplish when we work together to do what is best for the thousands of people we each represent in this body. The Export-Import Bank equals jobs. Let's get it done. Let's put people before politics.
