I actually like PHMSA. I like, when you do stuff, you seem to do it pretty well.
You have enough staffing, you have enough funding, you get along with OMB. Well, and again, I don't--I am not even sure I can ask you this question, because you haven't been there long enough.
I get that. Then why don't we have a bill just to stop New York State from doing this and leave the other 49 to do it? Leave Alabama alone.
I am particularly opposed to this bill because in New York State, we have a powerful securities fraud law, called the Martin Act.
