i'm so sorry for what happened at virginia tech university. and that was really striking to me, that obviously there's a satellite televisions everywhere, but can we imagine that in this country? can we imagine someone in a small town in america knowing something that happened in iran? hopefully with the internet and with blogs and with that new media, blossoming as it is, we will. but that's the kind of thing face-to-face contact really does, and it's great as we've had and why we continue to promote it. i had other people tell me how much they loved dr. phil and desperate housewives. and a lot of terrible -- >> these are good things? positive sign? >> but the fact that i would argue many iranians know so much more about the united states then we know about iran. and i want to emphasize that this exchange and dialogue is really in both directions. and we talk about a level playing field. it's not about bringing iranians here to be taught about america and our values. it's really a shared and common dialog. so that some of the expenses that we

now, whether it's virginia tech, the recent shootings at the pentagon or columbine, we're reminded over and over again that our gun laws are not strong enough, yet while gunshots continue to ring out across this country, the silence from this chamber is deafening. i'm a veteran. i served in the military in europe during wartime, world war ii, and i understand the desire to protect one's oneself and family, but i know how important it is to keep terrorists, convicted criminals and domestic abusers from having guns. now, some would argue that gun owners are against sensible gun laws, including closing the gun show loophole, but that's simply not true. recent polling has shown that there is overwhelming support for closing the gun show loophole among gun owners, and that here we have a placard that shows that gun owners themselves want the loophole closed. 69% of n.r.a. members agree. 85% of other gun owners agree. shut down that gun show loophole. republican pollster frank luntz recently found that 69% of n.r.a. -- national rifle association members -- and i point out 85% of others -- wan

the chair: the gentleman virginia tech. mr. andrews: thank you, mr. chairman. i would like to thank my friend from texas for offering this amendment. i think it makes a very significant contribution to this legislation. what it effectively says is that competition should always be the general rule. only when there is a compelling reason for an exception should there be one. so, for example, if there is a national emergency or there truly is only one entity that could provide a good or service, then in those exceptional circumstances but only in those exceptional circumstances should there be no competition before rewarding of a contract. again i think that the amendment is very much consistent with the purpose, spirit, and letter of the bill. and would urge my colleagues to support it. and reserve the balance of my time. the chair: the gentleman from texas. mr. sessions: thank you, mr. chairman. mr. chairman, do i want to thank the gentleman, mr. andrews, not only in his testimony before the rules committee yesterday but also that of mr. conaway. with the inten

jobs come use only associate with other more famous high-tech corridors, of course in california, massachusetts, are right here in northern virginia. but broadband has not impacted small high-tech businesses. this technology has changed traditional business models that all small business owners once relied on. as such, it is particularly important that small businesses have access to broadband technology so they can compete on a global level. this committee has long understood that small business come in all shapes and all sizes. and occupy a wide range of different industries. with this in mind, we do not want to disconnect mainstream. we also want to connect every street. every side alley and every country road so that all small businesses, whether they are a traditional farming interest or internet startup, out in these less populated areas, have the same technological opportunities. so while we must expand access to these services at the same time, we must ensure broadband is affordable for these entrepreneurs. according to reports from the fcc, businesses with 25 or employees or less, take two times more employees for broadba
