basically, if you are concerned about your rural hospital or health care system centers, this is the amendment that will save them. This is the amendment that will protect them. You can go home and say, basically, that we have made sure that no matter what happens with the Affordable Care Act, we are going to make sure we protect our rural hospitals and rural clinics. That being said, all of us have rural areas in our States. I urge the adoption of this amendment and the support of this amendment. It has the teeth of the budget point of order. So I urge everybody: If you care about your health care providers-- the economic engine, the protection of your people in your areas that have very poor health care coverage right now--make sure you vote in support of this amendment. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Wyoming.
