Mr. Chair, I rise to claim the time in opposition to this amendment. The gentleman from California is recognized for five minutes. Thank you. Mr. Chair. This amendment is an outrageous attack on states rights dressed up as a fake energy emergency. My colleague refers to a national emergency during World War II where the army and our country's posture was different. The current environment is not legitimate. (02:45–02:53)
CLAIM
Asserts that the amendment is a false representation of an energy emergency to undermine states' rights.
