95% of Americans support this. I sometimes feel like an adjudicator in this job, so I guess I'll be the one to say that we've asked nicely for leadership to put this on the floor. If they don't, I'm saying timeline is end of month. There is a discharge petition prepared and ready to go. I think it's very clear where the White House stands on this, I don't speak for the White House, but the President has stated that he supports banning this because it is corrupt. Frankly, the fact that members are getting, what, plus 600% returns on their investments is wrong. But more importantly, how could you ever be expected to represent your constituents when you're clearly worried about your pocketbook? And so that's why we're here today. Again, thank you to Representative Burchitt because he helped work on that discharge, but we are very hopeful that this will be brought to the floor in regular order. And we look forward collectively to deliver this one to the American people.
