“Thank you for yielding, Mr. Towns. I thank you again for your leadership for bringing us together, but it's going to be through your leadership and others here on the floor tonight, our great Speaker, and bringing together Members of this body to make sure that we can have a bipartisan national energy plan.

So we do have a chance for a win-win-win.”
