I'm hoping that amendment does pass because our Republican friends have constantly said that they want to do away with regulations that might impede the flow of commerce, and I think that my amendment is a step in that direction. I know that the Coast Guard may not like it, but I think an ombudsman would bring about a fair balance so that we can achieve the things that we need to achieve. With that, again I applaud the chairman and the ranking member for bringing this bill forward. Mr. LoBIONDO. I reserve the balance of my time.
