On the recordJuly 27, 2011
I thank the gentleman for yielding. I will be very brief. I certainly care deeply about clean air, so do all the businesses in Kansas, so do all the agriculture people. We want clean water, but we know how to do it and we're doing it. You said this was the ``ignorance is bliss'' amendment. I would prefer to call it the ``jobs are a good thing'' amendment. When things get mischaracterized--I'm not suggesting we abolish this. There is still $6.2 million available for the Greenhouse Gas Registry. That's as much as was available in 2009. This is a simple, modest amendment that many on your side voted for when I offered it before, and I hope many of them will continue to do that. I thank you for yielding.
