“I demand a recorded vote. The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Massachusetts will be postponed. Amendment No. 11 Offered by Mr. DeFazio The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 11 printed in House Report 112-680. Mr. DeFAZIO. Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of the Rules Committee Print, add the following title: TITLE VI--REPORT ON FUGITIVE COAL DUST SEC. 601. REPORT. Not later than 6 months after the date of enactment of this Act, the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency and the Secretary of Transportation shall submit to Congress a joint report on the health, environmental, and public safety impacts of fugitive dust emissions from coal transport. The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 788, the gentleman from Oregon (Mr. DeFazio) and a Member opposed each will control 5 minutes. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Oregon. Mr. DeFAZIO. Well, today, the do-nothing Congress will slink out of town. It's going to be the earliest adjournment in an election year since 1960; but, you know, I guess the Nation has no problems and there's no work undone, so it's just time to go home and campaign. It's pretty extraordinary.…”
