Mr. Chair, I yield myself the balance of my time. Mr. Chair, I would argue that this was an amendment that last year passed. It was taken out by the Senate. It is necessary. All we are asking the Department to do is actually follow the law, which, under executive order currently, Biden is trying to have them surpass. For years, this has been an adoptive practice by both Democrats and Republicans. What we are seeing is extreme measures taken by Democrats to show us exactly where their abortion stance is. I was on the floor of this House last session when we voted for a bill that would allow taxpayer-funded dollars to be used for abortions up until the moment of birth. If that is not extreme, I don't know what is. Republicans are supporting women who find themselves in these positions. This is a defense bill. It should not be used to kill innocent lives and put women's lives at unnecessary risk, especially those who are supporting and fighting for this country and our values. Mr. Chair, I yield back the balance of my time.
