On the recordJuly 24, 1996
Mr. Chairman, in closing my part of this, we are talking about a total budget here of $2.6 billion. We are talking about a .04 percent overall cut, $11 million out of $2.6 billion. I think for the future of our grandchildren, as has been stated, that sooner or later we are going to run out of fossils, we are going to run out of coal, we are going to run out of everything else, and this is good, clean energy that is being developed now at less and less a cost every year. This is not corporate welfare. Private industry is not going to go out and develop this when there is not a profit to be made. That is why we have to put the dollars in to find these good, clean, renewable sources. I would urge Members to support the Schaefer-Klug-Minge-Fazio, et al. amendment.
