I want to come back to the fact that this legislation tries to ensure that pro-development interests get a fair shake. But now we also have to make sure that typical homeowners who are not development interests get a fair shake as well. I am just struck by the fact that my colleagues are willing to say that the typical homeowner, 65 million of them, are supposed to be satisfied to go off and see what happens at the local level and people who want to develop their property get this Federal Express lane and rapid consideration of their claims. That is not my vision of balance.
