I think the gentleman will be happy to know that we take care of his primary concerns. First of all my amendment does not deal with only after. We deal with prior to. We have made an adjustment as a result of the Dicks amendment to mine which I accepted. So if there is a substantial threat, we can do the repair work prior to. That is very important.

I think this amendment enhances the bill. It adds to the quality of an already good bill, and we are pleased to accept it.
Just let me say to the gentleman from Illinois how much we value his many contributions to the committee and how much we look forward to a continuing productive working relationship. Mr. Chairman, I yield such time as she may consume to…
H.R. 3893 will increase the deficit, harm the environment, undermine the states and give charity to oil companies while doing virtually nothing, virtually nothing to help consumers.
I would propose in response to the gentlewoman that she withdraw the amendment and we work in the spirit of bipartisanship to refine it so we all clearly understand what we are talking about.
