Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time. Ms. DeLAURO. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. We need this bill. We need this bill to continue negotiating final 2023 funding bills. With the bill before us, what is in this bill, and why is it so onerous to some? We provide relief to working families, our schools, our children, small businesses, and communities across this Nation. We support the people of Ukraine. We support them in what is the fight for their lives, for their democracy, and for world democracy against Russian aggression. We protect communities everywhere in need of safe water. We help to rebuild them from crushing natural disasters. This bill will make a very real difference in the lives of Americans everywhere, and I am proud to support it. Mr. Speaker, I urge all of my colleagues to join me in supporting these bills, and I reserve the balance of my time.
