On the recordMarch 13, 2014
Again, I will refer my colleagues to the text of the bill. No Federal water rights that they currently have are going to be impaired. That includes national parks. We continue to hear about the upcoming Polis amendment. The original bill that Mr. Polis and I introduced never specifically mentioned just ski areas. It talks about any permit. So if you care about farmers, if you care about ranchers, if you care about municipalities, and if you care about ski areas, which we all share, let's protect those private property rights from Federal extortion. With that, I yield back the balance of my time.
