Bob Latta actually said...

I would like to thank Representative Latta for introducing this piece of legislation and this subcommittee for holding this hearing today.

I also thank you, Chairman Gibbs and Representative Bishop, for being part of a bipartisan group of Members...

I urge every member of this subcommittee to cosponsor this important legislation.

It was at this point that we approached our then-State Senator Randy Gardner and then-State Representative Bob Latta.
