“I have mentioned in two or three speeches my displeasure about how this bill was brought to the floor. But this bill presented to us is the third iteration. It is a 590-page bill with a renewables section. I was preparing to debate the renewables section. Now I find the renewables section has been amended two or three times. I ask my colleague from New Mexico to correct me if I am wrong. The mandate requiring utilities and retail electric suppliers to produce 10 percent of their electric power from renewable sources does not include public power. Is that correct?”
