We cannot allow employers to drag out the conciliation process rather than be held accountable for violating workers' civil rights. As I said at the beginning of this debate, justice delayed is justice denied. That is why I urge my colleagues to join me in voting for this resolution and taking a critical step to ensuring that those who suffer workplace discrimination can get timely and fair justice. Madam Speaker, I thank the gentlewoman from Oregon (Ms. Bonamici) for working with me on the House version of the resolution. I ask for the support of the House to pass the resolution to overturn the EEOC regulation, and I yield back the balance of my time.
