Barbara Boxer said "Mr. President, my amendment simply ensures important issues will be addressed, such as how much oil will stay here versus how much will be exported and, therefore, will we suffer from higher energy prices? How much steel will be made in America? How many private property rights suits will result from this pipeline? We have had a lot of them on the southern lake. How will this affect our national security, the dirty tar sands oil? Our American national security experts warn us against the instability worldwide caused by climate disruption. I urge an ``aye'' vote on this amendment, regardless of how you feel about Keystone. These are essential issues which must be addressed. The PRESIDING OFFICER.
