“I am not going to take the time, maybe give it back to the two gentlemen whom I joined on this amendment as well. This is one of those things that is common sense--at least, we believe in. Our people back home, they don't understand this in dealing with some regulation on why we are trying to encourage this clean resource and this energy and pumping the hydroelectric and not getting the credit for it. I have had to deal with this on the core issues on some others where we are actually trying to do what is right for the environment and also trying to do for sustainable and renewable energy. So I just wanted to say thanks for this amendment. I think we are working toward the right way, and I think this sense of Congress to say ``study this'' is the positive way we look at this and we work forward toward using all the resources and all the energy sources that we have and using those in a very productive way. I just wanted to put my support to this and look forward to this amendment being approved. I join with my two other cosponsors on this as well.”
