John Shimkus: “Let me just remind folks that what is going on here is that we have a 2008 standard that we were told 7 years…”

“Let me just remind folks that what is going on here is that we have a 2008 standard that we were told 7 years afterwards: Here is how you comply. That same year, we get new standards saying: Oh, no, no, no. You have got new standards lower than what it took us 7 years to define. That is really the debate. We are not eliminating standards, we are not rolling back standards, we are just saying: Give us a break. Give us time to comply with the 2008 standards before you even force down the 2015 standards. Nothing in this bill rolls back either of those standards. Mr. Chairman, I yield 2 minutes to my colleague from South Carolina (Mr. Sanford).”
