The last thing I will mention is that there is a common thread that links all of this, and it is money. The Koch brothers are putting hundreds of millions of dollars into this election. One of their organizations--one--said that it was going to spend $889 million in this election and that anybody who crossed them on climate change would be at ``a severe disadvantage.'' Nice little campaign you got here; I would hate to put it at a severe disadvantage with my $900 million. So what we have is secret money and we have threats related to it that are obliterating what had been a good Republican response on climate change and on other environmental issues. We need to move on. I yield the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Hawaii.
