Reserving the right to object, and I will object, I wish to express a few thoughts before my colleagues who are here and who wish to speak on another subject. I wish to be heard on the nomination process and maybe I can be recognized after I make that objection. Hoping to be so recognized, I object. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.

Thank you very much, and my thanks to both of you for your service, not only to the country, but your continued diligence to making sure that the American people have soundness in those that represent us in key decisionmaking roles.
But what I would say is let's--let's not beat up this issue with what I believe is hyperbole to just beat the issue up and talk about nationwide ban is what Republicans want to do and they want to take away all these rights and obligations.
I hope that you will expect the same from Mr. Connolly, Mr. Mfume, and myself because we intend to deliver that on behalf of the American people.
Mr. Speaker, I rise in opposition to the Pappas, or as it might be, the Pallone 399 amendment. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman is recognized for 5 minutes.
