I have no further speakers, and I yield myself the balance of my time to close. Mr. Chair, thankfully, the worst effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are passed us. However, most Federal agencies have not adjusted to this post-pandemic period, which is reflected in the deserted Federal office buildings throughout our country. I hope all Members will support this effort to bring greater transparency and accountability to large Federal buildings and federally leased spaces with low utilization rates by supporting my amendment and the underlying bill. In closing, I urge my colleagues to vote ``yes'' on my amendment, ``yes'' on the underlying bill, and I yield back the balance of my time.
