Frank Lucas: “Thank you Chairman Boswell and Ranking Member Moran for holding this hearing to review the state of the farm economy.”

The CFTC's enforcement authority has been a closely watched issue during the past several years.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman, and thank you, Ranking Member, for holding this hearing, and the witnesses for agreeing to testify.

I have no further requests, and I simply note this is a good bill. Let's vote for it. I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Weber of Texas). The question is on the motion offered by the gentleman from Oklahoma…

I have no further requests for time, and I am prepared to close once the gentlewoman from California closes.
