madam speaker , i thank the gentleman for yielding . 
what about the amount-in-controversy component , the $ 5 million ? 
under current law , some federal courts have determined the value for requests for injunctive relief by considering the value to each individual plaintiff . 
since that value is usually less than $ 75 , 000 , these courts have kept such cases in state court . 
this is sometimes known as the plaintiff 's viewpoint , defendant 's viewpoint problem . 
would the chairman explain how the bill resolves this challenge ?
