I thank my friend from California. I support the gentleman's intentions, but I have concerns with the impacts if this amendment were enacted as written. Lumber is a sustainable building product.

The American Wood Council and the Southeastern Lumber Manufacturers Association are opposed to this amendment. Mr. Chairman, I urge my colleagues to oppose it.

Welcome to the modern Democratic Party. This is not your dad's Democratic Party. It's not your grandmother's Democratic Party. This thing has veered so far to the left, and Michigan is at the epicenter of that.
They are encouraging a lot of people to get worked up to cross that line between what would be normal political discourse into radical, aggressive political behavior, including attempted murder, which you just saw in the UFC fights.
I think that the Democratic Party walked away from working and middle-class Americans a decade ago, and in Michigan, people are starting to wake up to this notion that we can't continue to do this and expect our kids to stay.
