On the recordMarch 5, 2020

Senator Shaheen and I are here today to report this amendment. This is simply language that is being reinserted back into the Energy bill that was taken out. I will say that it is clarifying language. We made some slight changes to clarify that there are no mandates in this legislation, and it has to do with ensuring that we have encouragement of energy efficiency in the single largest use of energy in our country, which are our residential homes and commercial buildings. So I appreciate the fact that Senator Shaheen is here on the floor. I yield to the Senator. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from New Hampshire.
