Well, this is just more of the same. It is politics, pure and simple. It is three decades later. We have heard we spent $15 billion. All you got is a hole in the ground. This is ``Screw Nevada 2.0.'' I am going to offer an amendment that allows for consent-based decisionmaking, which was the Blue Ribbon Commission's recommendation, and I hope that we can go in that direction. You allow consent-based for interim storage, why not for permanent storage? That would be the way to solve this problem. That would be the way to move us forward. We wouldn't waste billions more and decades more in terms of time. So I urge a ``no'' vote on the rule and a ``no'' vote on the bill.
