I thank my friend for yielding. And the gentleman from Iowa is indeed an expert on renewable energy. and Ive spent a lot of time in his wonderful State examining that program. which is very robust right now. I thought the gentleman might be interested. because this is a subject thats near and dear to your heart. in the recent progress on the border fence and the recent actions that have been undertaken by the administration. The gentleman from Iowa and I have linked arms on a number of occasions to do several things: one. pass the border fence legislation that mandates the construction of a double fence across the southern border for about 854 miles. And as we know. that legislation was watered down some in December by the Senate. but it remains a mandate to do at least 700 miles of fence. And the administration just undertook the waiver of environmental regulations that would keep the fence from being built for many years.
