On the recordJune 3, 2008
I say to my good friend, give me until tomorrow. He reads off correctly some of the allocations, but each of them has some benefit to the problem of the CO2 and global climate change; each one is carefully thought through. So tomorrow I will be able to give this to you in greater detail, once we get before us the actual amendment or the bill that we are going to hopefully continue to debate with the amendment process. The second question the Senator asked about was the nuclear program. There is nothing in any of the bills that have been put into the record thus far, but I have the amendment here to initiate a very significant program to address what the distinguished Senator said is the need for nuclear power to begin to expand, using the current base, which, as he well knows, and I know, has been reduced in the last 12 to 14 years to where it is hardly in existence, either manufacturing or educational. But I have that handled. Lastly, I hope the Senator will spend a little time on a provision I have in this bill by which the President of the United States is given authority to at any time correct inequities or problems he thinks are incorrect.
