I thank the gentleman from California. I am just going to wind down here and say this is our time to lead. It does not matter who is the majority in this body. This is the people's House, and this is the people's House whether the Democrats are in charge or the Republicans are in charge.

If this is the land of the free, then let us stand up. Let's stand up for freedom and let us reject these mandates. Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time. ____________________
