Madam Speaker, why? This place has arrived at a consensus, albeit it took some time, on the first part of the bill.

Why combine it with an expansion process that needs far more study, irrespective of where one is on the spectrum? Why combine it, with the deadline that the House is facing? What is the logical path for combining those two issues?
