Before I ask for unanimous consent so that the gentleman from New York (Mr. Nadler) can take over the remainder of the time, I would just like to comment. I have been in this Congress for 13 years now, and before these sections were added that the Republicans oppose, there was simply the Voting Rights Act with a new coverage formula, sponsored by Mr. Sensenbrenner, and it had but less than 10 Republicans on it. Mr. Speaker, I yield the balance of my time to the gentleman from New York (Mr. Nadler), and I ask unanimous consent that he may control that time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the gentleman from Tennessee? There was no objection.
