Let me say, in conclusion here, look, if Federal workers aren't paying their Federal taxes, they should be fired. If they're not paying their Federal taxes and they want employment here, they should not be employed as Federal workers. We have a duty and an obligation.

I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion offered by the gentleman from Utah (Mr. Chaffetz) that the House suspend the rules and pass the bill, H.R. 828, as amended. The question was taken. The SPEAKER pro tempore. In the opinion of the Chair, two-thirds being in the affirmative, the ayes have it.
