CLEAN ENERGY ACT OF 2007

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. McGOVERN. First of all, let me thank the gentleman from Florida for voting with the Democratic majority in support of increasing the minimum wage and for voting with us to make it more affordable for students to go to college. We appreciate your support. Judging from his statement on this bill, I get the sense that he is opposed to the underlying bill.

Let me just say if you are opposed to the underlying bill, vote ``no' for everything. If you are for the same old, same old, if you want more, if you support tax breaks and subsidies for big oil, if you are against investing more in renewable energy, vote ``no' on the rule, vote ``no' on the underlying bill. I mean, that is the way this place works. That is your right.
