I would just note that the provision that the gentleman from Massachusetts (Mr. Capuano) is referring to was heard in committee. The title of the bill passed in the committee with well over 50 votes. It passed unanimously on the floor of the House by voice vote, and not a single Democrat rose to object to the bill, but that was last year. Right now, Mr. Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Arkansas (Mr. Womack).
