These things are important, but the goal right here is to realize we are not after fear-mongering. We are after ways we can actually help people. That is the goal. Help our communities. That has to take place. I am appreciative that the senior Senator from California, Dianne Feinstein, a Democrat, as well as the majority leader in the House, Mr. McCarthy, a Republican, have all agreed on this package. We are the States where all of a sudden, in a bipartisan and bicameral way, we have found a solution to move us forward. That is why I am saying, when the answer is yes, let's take yes. Vote ``yes'' on this provision, vote ``yes'' on this bill. It moves us forward. It is not a solution that is perfect, but it moves us forward in a way we haven't been able to do in the last decade. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
