00:00Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Well, we'll be taking on the continuing resolution soon
00:05this week, and though it's a way we don't really like doing business around here,
00:10I'd much rather we grind through the Appropriations Committee process, which
00:13is a lot more open. It's a necessary evil we have to get done in order to keep
00:18the government funded and keep things moving forward. So with what President
00:22Trump and his team have been laying out for us here, I think it's something
00:26that we can certainly deal with and get a good result as we grind through the
00:31following fiscal year on appropriations. So again, not ideal, but it's a way to
00:37keep things operating, and it does have some good pluses in it as well. I also
00:40wanted to point out, as several colleagues did here tonight, the moving
00:45on of a good friend, James Minn, who I first knew working in the Kevin McCarthy
00:50office as when he was whip, and he helped our team get up to speed here in this
00:55place when I was a new member and my new staff as well. So I really appreciate him,
00:59wish him all the best across the street, wherever he's going to be in those
01:04endeavors. So James Minn, thanks a lot for your effort and for just being a good,
01:08fun guy. We'll see you.
