I thank the Senator from Oklahoma for pointing that out. I think he is exactly right. I am unaware of any real opposition to this amendment. There may be a little bit of opposition, but I am not aware of it. But I know we do have at least one Senator--maybe more--who is, temporarily at least, objecting to all amendments until his or a group of them can be agreed to or made pending. I don't think any objection right now would be specific to this amendment. I also have another technical amendment that I want to call up at the appropriate time. It is not the right time now, but at the appropriate time I do have another technical amendment. I thank my colleague from Oklahoma for his leadership and thank him for his effort, along with Senators Fischer and Landrieu. This has been a team effort. It was bipartisan. We want to help American farmers. Again, the risk of spill on farms and ranches is just minuscule, almost nonexistent. If we look at the track record, there is a very good track record. This is a good amendment, something we have been working on for a long time. I yield the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Louisiana.
