I encourage my colleagues to read the language of this amendment. It carries out current law. That is simply what it does. Current law requires this consideration by Fish and Wildlife on these projects. This amendment makes it clear that we want the Federal agencies to comply with the law. That is why we wrote it that way. And this amendment would make sure the intent of Congress in implementing the statute is, in fact, carried out. Mr. President, with that, I suggest the absence of a quorum. The PRESIDING Officer. The clerk will call the roll. The legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
