I appreciate the many speakers who have spoken already who have spoken to the bipartisan nature in which this bill has proceeded. At this time, I think we need to thank the Judiciary Committee... I am also very grateful to be a part of the Natural Resources Committee, which I think has worked in a bipartisan way to present this bill. I have to admit that the only thing that would really make me happier is if we were discussing this bill in October rather than this close to Christmas. But other than that, I am very much appreciative of those people who worked for this bill, especially the administration, who is supportive of it, and the resident representative from this particular area.
