“It has a bioenergy reserve program to allow us to learn how to grow switch grass and how to harvest it and store it and move it; woody biomass so we can get cellulosic ethanol going. We have for the first time significant money in for fruits and vegetables, which are 50 percent of the agriculture in the United States. We have country-of-origin labeling. It's going to be mandatory on fruits and vegetables and meats starting September 30. We have interstate meat shipment, another issue that's been hanging on for 20 years. We've solved a lot of problems in this bill. We have a bill I think that covers all the interests in the country, and we have a bill that we should all be proud to vote for in this House. Again, I want to thank all my colleagues for their hard work and look forward to having a strong vote on this and encourage you all to support this bill.”
