I thank the gentlelady, but that is precisely the opposite of the number of jobs per megawatt. If nuclear creates more energy for fewer jobs and less cost, that's the direction we should go because it's nonpolluting as well. But this notion that we have to keep this going because it just creates jobs and jobs per megawatt, it just baffles me. I rise in support of the gentleman's amendment. We're borrowing 41 cents on every dollar. We ought to save money where we can. Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Oklahoma (Mr. Lankford). The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the noes appeared to have it.
