On the recordJune 2, 2015

Reclaiming my time, I know a little bit about this subject. The bottom line is that in terms of its medical viability, in terms of epilepsy and a lot of other issues, there is some need for a real study of this, not just about the way that we have proceeded so far. I think that this amendment and what is happening in the States should be allowed to go forward. I yield 1\1/2\ minutes to my colleague from California (Mr. Rohrabacher) for an opportunity to close on this subject. At that point then I would yield back the remainder of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman may not yield blocks of time and must remain on his feet.
