I call to order this 103rd meeting of the Standing Committee on Citizenship and Immigration.
Thank you to our witnesses. As you've probably been told, we are expecting that a vote is going to happen. Bells should start ringing around 11:15. What I would like to propose to the committee is that we hear the witnesses and try to get the 21 minutes of witness testimony in. The clerk has asked for a bus to be available to take us after that, so we could go. We still have lots of time, because it's a 30-minute bell.
I also wonder about the witnesses. We have a second panel beginning at 12:00 when we return. I'd like to hear from the second panel of witnesses but then have questions for all six witnesses, if you're able to stay for that second hour from 12:00 to 1:00. We'll play that by ear as we go. We're not quite sure what will go on in the House, but we'll give this a try.
I'm going to suggest that we begin with Mr. Rehaag. Could you speak for seven minutes? Then we're going to go to Mr. Powell for seven minutes, and then to Mr. Tomlinson and Ms. Jordan. They will be sharing seven minutes.
Go ahead, Mr. Rehaag.
