I thank the lead sponsor of the bill, Mr. Carey, both for his leadership on this bill and for his partnership on the Modernization Subcommittee. Mr. Speaker, I have no further speakers, and I yield back the balance of my time.
I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. Congress has never awarded the Congressional Gold Medal to any group of Vietnam veterans. Today, we can change that by passing this legislation. I ask my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to vote…
Today we aren't focusing on the past. We are reviewing two bills that bring the Congressional Research Service and, by extension, this institution further into the future.
My hope is, regardless of which party holds the gavels, that that Subcommittee continues, because the work of institutional improvement needs to continue.
