Mr. Speaker, I would like to inquire how much time is remaining on both sides. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Kentucky has 4\3/4\ minutes remaining. The gentleman from Illinois has 4 minutes remaining.
And so we have a real problem and one comment I would make about Mr. Olson's legislation is some have suggested that we are mandating that only--it be reviewed every 10 years.
Mr. Chairman, I yield 5 minutes to the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Rothfus).
Mr. Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the distinguished gentleman from Oregon (Mr. Walden), who is a member of the Committee on Energy and Commerce and is quite familiar with energy issues.
