Political Quotes

“I thank Chairwoman Waters for yielding. Mr. Chair, China, in particular, has used this tactic to crowd out U.S. manufacturers, and Ex-Im will finally have the tool it needs to counter this tactic. I am proud of the work we have done on this bill. Building a stronger Export-Import Bank, if I may be personal for just one second, is one of the main reasons why I was asked and honored to become a member of the Financial Services Committee 7 years ago. This is a bill that would achieve that mission for a decade to come, and I urge all of my colleagues to vote ``yes.'' Mr. McHENRY. Mr. Chair, I yield myself such time as I may consume.

It is clear by my cosponsorship of that with Chairwoman Waters that I support reauthorizing the Bank. And as I said in my opening statement, I support the Bank staying open through the continuing resolution or the appropriations vehicle, whatever it is that is going to become law. So I will restate that to both my colleagues so they can hear. Mr. Chair, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Huizenga), the ranking member of the Investor Protection, Entrepreneurship and Capital Markets Subcommittee.”
