No. What I'm saying to you, sir, is your belief is obviously that the Second Amendment is an individual right so that the States that have laws that say you have to be 21, those laws should be abolished and we should limit it to 18. For…

I thank the gentleman for yielding. Based on your argument, you would think that the state that the laws of the 37 States have that limit gun permits to people that are 21 should be abolished. Why does your legislation not go further and…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 6, line 14, after the period insert the following: ``Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the…

Last Congress, I introduced and successfully pushed to enactment the 'Securing the Protection of our Enduring and Established Constitutional Heritage Act' or 'SPEECH Act.'

Marijuana is not the problem. It is turning a whole generation of young people against the system.

New York is the number one location in the country for marijuana possession arrests, and it is people of color.

The public is against it. More of the public now is for decriminalization than is against it.

The whole program in this country with marijuana arrests has been a failure for 40 years.

The overwhelming view from my congressional district is that Federal regulations are driving American ingenuity and opportunity to other countries.

I demand a recorded vote. The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Tennessee will be postponed.

Even in poor old Memphis, Tennessee, the most poverty stricken of the 60 major cities, unfortunately, you can't get a lawyer to go to traffic court for you for $175.

I demand a recorded vote. The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Tennessee will be postponed. Amendment No. 5 Offered by Mr. Keating

I respect the gentleman from Kentucky greatly and appreciate his remarks, but I would say if his position is there's no harm, no foul, if there's no harm, no foul and it's duplicative, then there's no reason not to adopt it in case he's…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR (Mr. Ross of Florida). The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 6, line 11, strike ``and'' after the semicolon. Page 6, line 12, strike…

I just thank you, Mr. Garamendi, for the leadership and for putting this hour together and allowing me to join you. And let's say it together. Pass the bill.
