Madam President, the 2-year delay encourages bureaucrats to stall new permits. It does not accomplish anything. It delays new construction, and it delays new jobs. One of the interesting points about all three of these amendments is that everyone agrees EPA should not be regulating greenhouse gases. If you are going to have a root canal, does it help to wait 2 years? I urge my colleagues to vote against the amendment. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The question is on agreeing to amendment No. 215.
