I have an amendment at the desk. The CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 6, lines 14 through 17, amend paragraph (16) to read as follows: (16) TransCanada Corporation's first wholly owned oil pipeline in the United States is the recently built Keystone I, which spilled 12 times in the United States and 21 times in Canada in less than one year of operation. Despite claims that it is ``the safest pipeline ever built'', Keystone was recently shut down by the United States Government because it was deemed a ``threat to life, property, and the environment''. The CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 370, the gentleman from Tennessee (Mr. Cohen) and a Member opposed each will control 5 minutes. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Tennessee.
