Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman from California. Again, we continue to pray that the best outcomes possible will continue to happen for California. Mr. Speaker, my next speaker from Montana (Mr. Downing) is a brand- new Member and our concluding speaker here today. We consider ourselves, as a Utahn and Montanan, the greatest portion of the country, wouldn't you say, out West? We have a lot to prove that. The gentleman is a new Member but a very experienced, thoughtful, and strong Member that I look forward to working with. I thank him for being here. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Montana (Mr. Downing).
