While our distinguished Speaker and I may disagree on this particular bill, we certainly agree on our opinion of the chairwoman of the Appropriations Committee and her ability to bring us together. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Alabama (Mr. Aderholt), my good friend and distinguished ranking member of the Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Subcommittee of the Appropriations Committee.

The only reason we’re doing it now is, first, the Senate Democrats, I think, have misused the filibuster, and honestly, the Republicans have let them misuse the filibuster.
Our conference refuses to let the obstruction and inaction of Senate Democrats trigger another manufactured shutdown at the end of September. That is why we are acting before a funding lapse crisis, not in response to it.

We want to take away the possibility of a shutdown between now and the election.
