For the purpose of closing. Mr. Speaker, the House of Representatives has passed this resolution in previous Congresses. We will pass this resolution today, and, if needed, we will pass this resolution again in the future. We stand in solidarity with the persecuted Baha'i minority in Iran and demand the Iranian Government end its intolerable persecution of their people and religion. Mr. Speaker, I urge unanimous passage of this resolution, and I yield back the balance of my time. Mr. McCAUL. Mr. Speaker, in closing, I thank Ranking Member Meeks, Congresswoman Dean, and the gentlewoman from Illinois for offering this bipartisan resolution in support of human rights and religious freedom for the Baha'i community in Iran. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to join me in supporting this resolution, and I yield back the balance of my time.
