I yield myself the balance of my time. First, I will urge people to reject the Markey amendment. Now I made an observation. And maybe somebody is saying, Boy, you are really stretching it if you are going to byproducts. And I referenced the way the amendment was written. And the amendment is written where it says very specifically, ``all oil and gas.'' Well, let's see. If a product is made from oil and gas, wouldn't that qualify? So I think this is a very, very serious concern. And once again, it is the unintentional consequences of this amendment. So I urge rejection of the Markey amendment. With that, I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Massachusetts (Mr. Markey). The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the noes appeared to have it.
