Unfortunately, NOAA did a study which simply said that the hatchery production of salmon in this area more than offsets any loss that comes from the dams. So even though we have this issue of an endangered species trying to eat another endangered species, which one are we going to support. I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Colorado (Mr. Lamborn), who is a member of our committee who understands this particular issue.

There really is no reason to add to this hearing--unless it is to give Members another 5 minutes to campaign, or speak on the bills. It is kind of a waste of time.
The Majority is pushing a so-called 30x30 idea, locking up 30 percent of our oceans by 2030, all under the guise of protecting biodiversity while tackling climate change.
This ban is even more ridiculous after we just locked in mandatory spending of $900 million in perpetuity with the so-called Great American Outdoors Act.
Is the gentleman sure he really wants the Federal Government having a forest in his place?
