Let me also indicate that I am very glad and grateful for amendment No. 201 that adds $10 million to research dealing with triple negative breast cancer. Between 10 and 17 percent of female breast cancer patients have this condition, and I believe this is crucial to helping military women and others. Amendment No. 202 deals with PTSD. We have added $2.5 million. I am grateful for this amendment. We are recognizing that more and more young people coming out have a continuation of PTSD. Currently, there are 31.3 million people in the United States being treated for PTSD. Let me also say that I am grateful for the seven other amendments that have been added. Jackson Lee amendment No. 195 creates housing for disaster survivors. No. 145 has the DOD engage in efforts to stop Boko Haram. No. 147 has to do with recruiting students who go to the Defense National Security Education Program. It prevents them from being recruited by foreign governments. Also, No. 148 deals with stopping a report on maternity mortality rates. Amendment No. 149 deals with the risk posed by debris in low Earth orbit. No. 160 deals with the idea of training in cybersecurity, cyber defense, and cyber operations for elementary, secondary, and postsecondary students. Then, No. 620 deals with artificial intelligence education strategic opportunities and risks. Madam Chair, may I ask how much time I have remaining. The Acting CHAIR (Ms. Bonamici). The gentlewoman has 40 seconds remaining.
