Mr. GREEN of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I also thank Mrs. Torres for being very generous with the time of the Rules Committee.

I support all aspects of what I consider to be historic legislation. I would like to also thank Mr. Hoyer who has worked tirelessly to help us to bring this legislation to the floor. It will mean a lot to many people. It will mean an awful lot to me.

I appreciate anyone who is going to vote for it, and I encourage everyone to vote for it.

Today is a unique day in history, and I trust that this bipartisan legislation will prove such to be the case.

I am not going to prolong my time. I just want to be grateful to all Members of the House, including the Speaker, the whip, the caucus chair, persons on both sides, and the minority leader--everyone. I am grateful. I trust that we will vote to pass the legislation.
