Mr. Chairman, obviously, being from California, we have our own versions of what is going on with the drought, and certainly the science that I look at is different than the gentleman's look at the science that he is at; but that is what policy debates are all about. We should debate that here in the Congress, we should debate that in the Senate, and it shouldn't be decisions that are unilaterally made by any President of the United States. That is why we have a democracy here, not a king. I oppose this amendment, and I encourage all of the Members here to oppose this amendment. I yield back the balance of my time.
