I am aware of that. Clean water takes care of that, and that process is going through. Sometimes we agree. Sometimes we don't. But just let me make an analogy that I think the gentleman would agree with. We had a long debate last night on catch shares, something entirely different. The gentleman was very much so defending--and I agree with him--the fact that there was regional planning. And catch shares works in our part of the country. That is all that we are saying. We think that is probably a better model. This executive order is contrary to that. So my arguments here over and over have been the model, and that's why we should defund it and come back and do it correctly. I thank the gentleman for yielding to me.
