We appreciate the Leader's interest and support. With that support, and that of all our colleagues who have joined us today, I feel confident that we will succeed in getting this bill enacted into law this year. And I am excited at that prospect, because I think it will make a big difference in moving broadband both to remote and underserved areas of the Nation, and also in moving it to the next generation. That will be an outstanding result, and a great benefit for the Nation.
