Mr. Chairman, I heard the same witnesses that my friend Mr. Garrison referred to. There has been a great deal of fearmongering about this bill. There's been a great deal of overblown suspicion about the bill. Sometimes you can correct that; sometimes you can't. I think the officials have been extremely clear that this is in no way intended to do anything other than protect the sovereignty and security of our country, and that normal protests or free speech in our country are absolutely not impacted.
So it's very clear that there's just been a misunderstanding about the scope of this provision. I think the explanation from the officials has been very helpful, and I think that we should accept the intent as it was explained to us by the officials who drafted this bill.
