I appreciate my friend from Louisiana for yielding to me. I appreciate his time on the floor. I was in the House Judiciary Committee. I will be spending some time in the 30-minute Special Order here in a second, dealing with a lot of the issues that my friend was just talking about, in particular dealing with energy. What I will be talking about is: They break it; you buy it. That is the reality of what we are dealing with, with our Democratic colleagues here in the majority and in the administration. Energy is the perfect example of that. We are seeing that obviously in Texas, where we are sitting on a sea of oil and gas that we could be exploring further and producing for the world and driving down CO<INF>2</INF>.

I appreciate the gentleman and thank him for holding this Special Order hour time on the floor for our colleagues.
