she and james weldon johnson became great friends. johnson read some of her poetry. sent it back to his friends in harlem who then began publishing her poetry in new negro renaissance publication such as the crisis and other publications. and through her poetry, which was widely admired by her peers, spencer became good friends with many important black culture literary and intellectual features in the middle decades of the 20th century. many of those figures visited the home she and her husband had in lynchburg. basically, you name an important black cultural figure of that period and they likely stayed at ann spencer's home. they were known as very gracious hosts and she was an avid gardener so she had beautiful gardeners and would regularly host literal conversations about culture in her home and in her garden. just to name a couple of visitor, they were probably at her home, some included du bois and a letter from him to spencer. they first met in 1898 and became very close friends and this is a letter from him mentioned a visit he's going to be taking in 1934 an

the so-called hyde and weldon amendment remain intact. maintaining these protections are important to securing bipartisan support for these bills. though there are -- there is a lot to like in these bills, mr. speaker, there are also some things i would change if it were solely up to me. i don't think any one of us here, republican or democrat, would view either of these bills to be perfect. but what we have achieved here is a bipartisan compromise. i think all of us in this chamber can be proud of the work we have accomplished here. especially in times of divided government and ever more polarized political environment. finding compromises across bipartisan lines and between chambers of congress and the administration is no small fete -- feat. that we have done so here today is a testament to the house of representatives and reminder that the things that unite us are more powerful than those that divide it. with that, mr. speaker, i reserve the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from oklahoma reserves his time. th
