I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. Mr. Speaker, first, let me thank all of the men and women who have sacrificed and served this Nation. I can't imagine why any person of sound mind would deny women the right to the same benefits, to the same recognition that men get who serve this Nation. I would think that not one person would deny them this right. I cannot imagine why those who serve would have to fight for the dignity that each and every single person who serves this country should have. I support this legislation, and I support the people who support it. Anybody who doesn't should not be in this building.
