Paul Gosar: “What this amendment basically does is, it takes my district out of this withdrawal. Seventy percent of the active mine…”

What this amendment basically does is, it takes my district out of this withdrawal. Seventy percent of the active mine sites and proposed mine sites are in my district, and we want to make sure that we are not victimized, that we are taken out of this withdrawal area. This body actually had rules that they tried to follow that they didn't usurp Members' districts, they worked with those Members' districts. And with that, I would ask that we endorse that and withdraw my district from this withdrawal. Mr. Chairman, I reserve the balance of my time.
