Of course, this legislative body has all the power to go back to policymaking after an administrative agency makes a determination, but we are not micromanagers. We are legislators. And I urge my colleagues to vote ``yes'' on the Castor amendment to protect children's health. If you won't create an exception for children's health, I wonder, you are not willing to really recognize the fundamental constitutional basis of this government. It is one that relies on checks and balances as the basis of our government. I urge my colleagues then to also support the Castor amendment but oppose the REINS Act in the end. Mr. Chair, I yield back the balance of my time.
