It just seems, about the only thing that we hear about, in committee, on the floor, is CO2, climate change, all the time--hounded, hounded, hounded.

But it shouldn't require you having to come hat in hand to this place and ask a Congress Member to run a bill so you can purchase a piece of land that might be surplus already to the government.

I also want to express our deep appreciation to Congressman Doug LaMalfa as the prime sponsor of this bill.

So, we are hellbent on forcing people into electric cars with minerals and metals that aren't even available.
