This amendment blocks energy production on Federal lands that are not subject to any restrictions. This is nothing other than another messaging amendment, which is meant to undermine H.R. 21, quite frankly, quite simply stated. Mr. Chair, we need to be focused on ways to make America more energy. That needs to be our focus. We want to make America more energy secure and lower gas prices for the American people. They want to know Congress is doing that. That is a good message for the American people. Mr. Chair, I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentlewoman from Florida (Ms. Wasserman Schultz). The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the noes appeared to have it.
