I rise in support of the Isakson amendment, which would seek to simply elevate the scope of the minimum guarantee from 84 percent in TEA LU up to 93 percent, the level in TEA 21. Basically, for the State of Georgia this means instead of getting 76 cents back on every dollar, the citizens of Georgia would get 84 cents back on every dollar. That is our money, and it is only fair. I strongly support the Isakson amendment.
