Mr. Speaker, I thank Representative Beatty. I really appreciate her participating again and her comments, and we are going to take her call and continue to push on this issue. Mr. Speaker, I would like to invite my friend and colleague up from the great State of Pennsylvania, Representative Dwight Evans, to also speak about this subject. Of course, throughout the history of African Americans, Philadelphia and Pennsylvania have played a very critical role. I am glad that my colleague from Pennsylvania is stepping up and speaking about this very timely issue of voter suppression in the wake of Shelby County. I yield to the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Evans).
