I just want to say. as you can tell from the number of speakers who have been here. from the gentleman from Michigan and his very esteemed committee and the Merchant Marine and Fisheries Committee and everyone else. many people have worked on this. We are hoping that this is one of the bright spots as we look forward to see this done. I know both the gentleman from Colorado and myself have called this a refugee area. I think it is probably because the distinguished chair today is head of the Refugee Committee. I am not sure. but the more I think about it. wildlife is a refugee anymore in our country as we see urban sprawl and everything. So in a way this is a refugee area for eagles and coyotes and all sorts of things that are being displaced by other things that are happening. So I guess it is. of a sort. although we meant to say refuge area. I started a bad precedent there.
