Like so many other amendments that I have heard here tonight, this is one that really befuddles me that it is in the NDAA. This is something that should be adjudicated in the jurisdiction of the Energy and Commerce Committee, not something that we should be trying to tag onto the NDAA. This amendment simply tries to do too much, too fast, and too soon. It dispatches the scientific assessment of the agency about how to address it and disregards the public's input on the process. Mr. Speaker, I urge a ``no'' vote on the Ross amendment, and I yield back the balance of my time.
