Passage of our bill also provides a certainty of predictability that industry in America needs.

We have tri-partisan support for our legislation, Democrats, Republicans and one Independent from Connecticut.

That is why we introduced the Clean Air Act Amendments of 2010.

I am going to ask for unanimous consent to enter for the record a number of letters of support for our legislation.

I think Senator Carper is right in pursuing legislation here to deal with these three pollutants.

It is not one size fits all. One size does not fit all. But we will let market forces help guide that.

We say, for example, in our legislation, we want to see mercury emissions reduced by 90 percent by a date certain.

I find it very, very helpful that we have national policies established by Congress in this area.

One of the virtues of a trading system and using market, the highest market forces, to enable us to ratchet down emissions is we give flexibility, in this case to the utilities.

One of the virtues of having to set some targets out there, to say these are our mission's targets, is it provides, we hope, the kind of certainty that we are looking for.

I think what you said is our efforts--EPA and our legislative efforts--our efforts will be mutually reinforcing in cleaning up our air, which is very encouraging to me.

I would hope that we could be more aggressive on the limits on NOx.

I would just--I do not think you were here when we said this, but Senator Voinovich and I worked on this for, I think, for about 4 years during the first part of the Bush administration.

I think that there are not many things that we agree on, but that would be one of them.

How do we strengthen our mission standards, how to reduce the emissions of unhealthy substances into our air, and at the same time not impede our economic growth?

That is really striking.

But we are glad that you could be with us today.

It was great to have your here, and we look forward to working with you going forward in what you described as a mutually reinforcing partnership.
