I thank the gentleman for yielding. What Biden administration bureaucrats fail to realize is that poorly designed rules made here in Washington can have devastating consequences for Pennsylvania communities. From south central to southwestern Pennsylvania, Gettysburg to Johnstown, Altoona to Bedford, Chambersburg to Lewistown, this impact will be felt. This rule from the Department of Energy would only serve to worsen the crippling shortages of transformers already faced by American manufacturers. Just recently, I spoke to a business in Pennsylvania that had been forced to wait 18 months for transformers to open their new business. These shortages are leading to costly delays that ultimately cost jobs, cost livelihoods, and cost the American public. Mr. Chair, I urge all of my colleagues to support this amendment.
