Your commitment to bipartisanship has proven that together we can do great things.
We need a partnership, a co-partnership here, if you will, with GSA and OMB to work through this issue.
I am very happy at this time to yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Minnesota (Mr. Peterson), a strong supporter, the cosponsor of this legislation, original cosponsor of it, and the ranking member of the Committee on Agriculture.
