I can't overemphasize the point about fentanyl enough, and I am glad the gentleman made it again. That was something that was top of mind, as I just had constituent meetings in Utah, particularly with law enforcement, in trying to squelch this overabundant invasion of fentanyl. It is catching people in situations that they would have otherwise not gotten into. It is overtaking our communities, and we need to communicate about it and have it addressed. Fentanyl becomes more and more the clear topic that we need to get out ahead of, and I think that is something that is motivating the Republican Conference more than anything to address this border issue. Madam Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Tennessee (Mr. Rose).
