“In my district in southwest Missouri, we frankly do not have lots of limousine transportation; but we do make lots of limousines. In fact, I think we may be the biggest manufacturer of limousines anywhere in the country; and for those men and women who work to make limousines and for those many businesses, large and mostly small, and our friends in this industry who provide this service at a time when we are more and more concerned about all kinds of transportation and transportation security, this bill really solves a transportation security problem for many people. It solves just simply a problem created in doing business every day for the small businesses that provide this great service to so many Americans, whether it is to go to that football game Mr. LaTourette mentioned or simply to travel from Newark Airport to the City of New York where someone can take a passenger. But as of today they could not wait for that same passenger and take them back to the airport.”
