For the purpose of debate only, I yield the customary 30 minutes to the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Woodall), my friend, pending which I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, none of us know what the future holds, but my friend from Georgia has indicated that he is not going to return after this session. He and I serve actively on the Rules Committee and have gotten to know each other and share moments of frivolity, as well as serious debate. I am going to miss him. I don't know whether he and I will be in debate on another rule because we have a rotational system up there, but just in case, I wish him well in his endeavors in the future. Mr. Speaker, during consideration of this resolution, all time yielded is for purposes of debate only. General Leave
