Madam Speaker, I have an amendment at the desk. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 1847, line 1, insert ``media and entertainment,'' after ``health care,''. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to House Resolution 900, the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Castro) and a Member opposed each will control 5 minutes. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Texas.

More from Joaquin Castro
I was proud to sponsor the AFFECT Human Rights in Venezuela Act for this very purpose alongside three Members of the Committee, Joaquin Castro, Maria Salazar, and Mike Waltz.
President Biden has been clear that sanctions on Venezuela's captors will only be lifted if the regime allows free elections, releases prisoners, and respects human rights.
this move to not allow one of our colleagues in the U.S. Congress who's been elected by the people she represents to sit and participate on a panel like this is, I think, unprecedented.
