“I will be brief. We are very close, I believe, toward the final passage of an energy bill that many of us have spent a good deal of time with. I want to thank a few folks who have spent a lot more time with this issue than I or than the principals on it. Cory McDaniel on my staff, legislative LA for energy, who has spent a great deal of time over the last good many months as we have fashioned the SAFE Act, as we have fashioned a clean portfolio standard versus a renewable portfolio standard, I thank Cory for that effort. I also thank Frank Macciarola, the minority staff director, and Bob Simon, the majority staff director. We worked closely with them as we have worked our way through this issue. Sam Fowler, counsel for the majority, and Judy Pensabene, minority counsel, have all been very helpful.”
