I have just a couple of comments.
First, this changes the bill substantially. I don't remember a lot of witness testimony on these particular two clauses.
This creates an interesting kind of circumstance. At this point, I'm inclined to abstain on the bill. It looks as though it's going to pass anyway, as it is. That's the point I am at.
I'll take the opportunity, because it may be the last time I speak—although it may not be, depending on what else is said—to express my appreciation to the bill's sponsor for the spirit in which he has conducted himself as we have gone through the hearings and having meetings. In preparation for these, we have had the opportunity to meet on a few occasions. We haven't agreed on everything, obviously, as we've gone through, but I appreciate the spirit in which he has conducted himself, both in drafting the bill with good intentions, which we may not come to agreement on, but also in the collegial way he has carried himself as we have gone through the hearings.
Thank you for that.
