Rob Bishop: “There is a backlog issue that needs to be done in a bipartisan and bicameral way.”

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.

Twenty years from now, come back here, and we will tell the gentleman we told him so. Madam Speaker, I have no objections to the bill, and I yield back the balance of my time.

I think many of those local fisheries on the coast would have some quibbling with your jurisdictional approach.

Is the gentleman sure he really wants the Federal Government having a forest in his place?
