The President's proposal is about $174 million below what is proposed in this legislation. And I, too, do not want to interfere with the work that is going on in Nevada when it comes to Yucca Mountain, but this would direct $30 million from the $174 million, more than the President recommended, into this account, which would help us hurry the future, bend the curve, and get us to the point where these technologies are available to all Americans, thereby creating jobs, protecting the environment, and, frankly, making us more secure on the international front.
