This amendment raises serious constitutional issues and may amount to an unconstitutional bill of attainder. This is not the way to handle policy disputes with Secretary Granholm, who is a very highly qualified, dedicated public servant. I have never actually heard this. These are serious charges, and this amendment prioritizes legislative theater over the American people and has no chance of becoming law. Mr. Chair, I strongly urge my colleagues to vote against this harmful amendment, and I reserve the balance of my time.
