Mr. Speaker, I am very pleased to stand here with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle today to support so many pieces of legislation that have come out of the Financial Services Committee.

I have always said with Dodd-Frank, where there were technical problems or oversights or unintended consequences, that I would work with my colleagues on the opposite side of the aisle, and much of what you see here today, that is what we have done.

Just as there may have been some unintended consequences in Dodd-Frank, we find that with the JOBS Act, there were unintended consequences; and certainly, I stand with them in correcting those. It could happen in any legislation; we know that. This is an example of that. I am very, very pleased to support this legislation today.

I reserve the balance of my time at this moment.
