I would just like to say, when it comes to 5G, Republicans had an amendment to keep 5G from being regulated by 1930s law called title II. My friends on the other side of the aisle do not want to get into a big discussion about the huge regulatory door they are opening in section 201 and section 202 that allows the FCC to basically run amok with rules. They will claim that they are locking down what the FCC did in 2015 but, in fact, while they may close one door--although we don't even know all those 700 rules they are forbearing against that are going to go into statute, they can't even provide that list and this bill isn't going anywhere--they are opening this other authority-- unlimited authority, frankly--to the FCC to regulate all these forms of technology. Mr. Chairman, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Johnson).
