I wish to thank the distinguished Senator from Kansas for his words today and for his support of this important project. I would also like to turn to the distinguished Senator from Iowa, somebody who truly believes we should have an ``all of the above'' energy approach but one that means actually doing--not only producing from our traditional sources of fossil fuels but also our renewable sources. He is someone who also understands that if we are truly going to have an ``all of the above'' energy plan in this country and do it, not just talk about it, we need the infrastructure to make it happen. So I turn to the good Senator from Iowa and ask him: Isn't this the vital infrastructure this country needs in order to truly have an ``all of the above'' energy plan that works? The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Iowa.
