I appreciate my chairman, and I also found the remarks that were directed at you to be reprehensible. I know you and I know your commitment to fair play and the First Amendment. However, I have questions about this bill, and that is why I am here to listen to the debate. I don't know if Mr. Lawler wishes to respond, but there is another bill, Representative Manning and Representative Smith's bill. It is bipartisan. It has, I think, 15 Members of each party on it. I have been trying to get on it, but they are doing this crazy balancing act that eliminates certain people. I yield to Mr. Lawler to ask if he would support H.R. 7921 and work with Mr. Smith to get that brought to the floor.
