Greg Walden: “What I think would be really good is you withdraw your amendment and vote for the underlying bill that is really clear…”

“What I think would be really good is you withdraw your amendment and vote for the underlying bill that is really clear in its scope and faith and is a really good legislative product. Mr. McNERNEY. Well, again, I appreciate the chairman's and Mr. Kinzinger's work on this, and I appreciate working with the chairman on this, but I am going to have to insist that we look at this amendment and take it seriously. I do want to protect the public interest. That is really what this comes down to. Again, the term shows up 100 times in the act, so let's not turn our back on the intent of the act. Let's move forward in a way that protects the public interest. Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.”
