Let me just say that it is good news that our brother from Louisiana is in fair condition. I appreciate that news report. And I also want to take up the previous speaker's offer to work with us on tax reform. We look forward to his assistance in moving that issue forward. I might say that he is mistaken. The bill that we are talking about today is about protecting public interests. The last time I checked, people who I know like green trees, not black ones; they like their electricity to be there when they turn their light switch on; and they like water. These are three issues that we are looking to protect and make sure that people in the United States can enjoy all of these attributes. Mr. Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Colorado (Mr. Buck) to talk about exactly that.
