I just want to state that I don't want people who may be listening to this, other Members who may be listening to this, to get the impression that we are putting money in here for the Loan Guarantee Program. There is no money in the underlying bill for the ATVM additional new loans. The only money in there is to administer the existing loans. I understand what the gentleman is saying. I agree with the gentleman. I just don't want Members to think that we are putting money into the program when we are not. I yield back the balance of my time.
