“I thank the gentleman. I want to brag on the House for having conducted this business with respect to this bill the way it has. If you go back to your grade school or your junior high civics classes, I'm a bill on Capitol Hill trying to become a law, this is exactly what happened with this deal. It went through the process the way it is supposed to, kind of the old-fashioned deal. We hope to see tomorrow a big bipartisan vote so the American people can at least in this one glimmer look and say, hey, the House of Representatives functioned the way that the Founding Fathers intended it to and moved an important piece of legislation forward. Mr. Speaker, I look forward to a big vote tomorrow. I yield back the balance of time. ____________________”
