“And we should not be funding diesel equipment in any of these bills anywhere, be it the Nation or the State or the county, and what we need to concentrate on are the natural gas technology and particularly the battery technology. Since the appropriations subcommittee here puts in $190 million for the aviation situation, I would hope that we could, in the future, get millions more to really bring this clean technology into all of the areas of the United States.
