On the recordOctober 3, 2011
I appreciate the gentlelady from Illinois, both for her long leadership role in trade and her remarks tonight. San Antonio and southTexas, these communities understand a strong economy depends on strong trade. They are fortunate to have a freshman lawmaker who, in arriving in Congress, quickly realized--in fact, before he came to Congress--the need to get out and have a level playing field to compete and win for American companies and ranchers and agricultural interests throughout this country. I'm glad and proud to yield to my Texas colleague from San Antonio (Mr. Canseco).
