Before I turn over to Ranking Member Heinrich, I want to take a moment just to highlight an important aspect of how the committee's been operating. Including today's and the last three markups, We've considered 19 Democrat bills and 20 Republican bills. That number would have been 20 to 20. It would have been equal. But at the request of a member of our committee, Senator King, the committee didn't consider one of his bills that was included on a previous agenda. (16:47–16:52)
