Madam President, let me just underscore Senator Whitehouse's role in the CBAM that he has talked about, because that sets up a level playing field on carbon--the real price of carbon--so we are not at a competitive disadvantage. We have…

Madam President, let me again thank Senator Carper for his leadership on these issues. We are joined by Senator Markey. If we would have passed Senator Markey's bill in the Senate that passed the House, we would not be in this position…
