today in the Wall Street Journal there coincidentally was an editorial on the subject about which I speak, and this was entitled ``Republicans Blow With the Wind. Another industry wants to keep its tax subsidies.'' It is about the possibility that the Senate will be asked--maybe as early as the next few days during the debate on the Transportation bill--to extend yet 1 more year the Federal taxpayers' subsidy for large wind turbines. I would like to take a few minutes to say why I don't believe we should do that, and I ask unanimous consent that following my remarks the Wall Street Journal editorial be printed in the Record. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. (See exhibit 1.)
