William M. ``Mac'' Thornberry: “I yield myself an additional 30 seconds. Mr. Speaker, in 2010, 2011…”

On the recordOctober 1, 2015

I yield myself an additional 30 seconds. Mr. Speaker, in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, this President signed into law the exact restrictions on Guantanamo transfers that we have in this bill. Now, is it all of a sudden such a big deal that he has decided that he is going to veto the bill over it? I think that is a hard case to make. Mr. Speaker, at this point, I am pleased to yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Chabot), the distinguished chair of the House Small Business Committee.
