I would like to end by saying I know there are some rumblings out there about what is this litigation fund being paid for and who is paying for it? The United States Government is being sued. We have to make these payments because we are not abiding by the law. It is not the private industry. There are rumblings out there about: Oh, we are relieving the nuclear industry of reliability. That is absolutely false. We are going to protect U.S. taxpayers from the liability that we are paying because the Federal Government is not complying with the law. And I want to make that straight. That is accountability, that is transparency. That is what my colleague Mr. Keating is doing. And with that, I support his amendment, and I yield back the balance of my time. {time} 1030
