I yield 30 seconds to the gentleman from Oregon (Mr. DeFazio). Mr. DeFAZIO. I still agree with that quote. We shouldn't play politics. It has never been a partisan issue. You've made it into a partisan issue, and that quote was when you were opposing a 90-day extension and when I was saying don't play politics by opposing a 90- day extension at that point in time. But we're too far down the road. We didn't have an alternative then. We have an alternative now. Pass the Senate bill. Announcement by the Speaker Pro Tempore The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair will remind Members to address their remarks to the Chair.
