                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. GUTIERREZ. Mr. Chair, I was delayed for votes, due to my 
participation in a peaceful rally and protest against the current 
Administration's enforcement policies against immigrant students and 
the families of U.S. citizens. Had I been present for the votes I would 
have voted ``yes'' on rollcall votes 640, 641, 642, 643, 644, 645, 646, 
647, and 648.
  The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the committee amendment in the

                           Motion to Recommit

  Ms. SUTTON. Mr. Speaker, I have a motion to recommit at the desk.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is the gentlewoman opposed to the bill?
  Ms. SUTTON. I am opposed in its current form.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will report the motion to 
recommit.
  The Clerk read as follows:

       Ms. Sutton moves to recommit the bill H.R. 1938 to the 
     Committee on Energy and Commerce with instructions to report 
     the same back to the House forthwith, with the following 
     amendments:
       Page 6, after line 24, insert the following new paragraphs:
       (18) TransCanada Corporation has threatened to condemn the 
     land of American farmers, ranchers, and homeowners along the 
     Keystone XL pipeline route, and farmers, ranchers, and 
     homeowners in the States of Montana, Nebraska, Oklahoma, 
     South Dakota, Kansas, and Texas are at risk of having their 
     property seized by a foreign corporation.
       (19) In its permit application to the Canadian Government, 
     TransCanada Corporation, the owner and operator of the 
     Keystone XL pipeline, projected that the Keystone XL pipeline 
     will increase oil prices in PADD 2, which includes the States 
     of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, 
     Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, 
     South Dakota, Tennessee, and Wisconsin, increasing annual 
     revenue to Canadian oil producers by an estimated 
     $2,000,000,000 to $3,900,000,000 in 2013.
       Page 7, lines 14 and 20, redesignate subsections (c) and 
     (d) as subsections (d) and (e), respectively.
       Page 7, after line 13, insert the following new subsection:
       (c) Protecting Consumers From Unfair Gas Price Increases 
     and Seizure of Farmland.--The President shall ensure that the 
     necessary actions under subsection (a) shall include--
       (1) any feasible step to prevent an increase in gasoline 
     prices in any region of the country; and
       (2) any feasible step to limit the seizure of American 
     farmland and ranchland without consent of the landowners.

                              {time}  1810

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentlewoman from Ohio is recognized for 
5 minutes.
  Ms. SUTTON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to offer this amendment in 
response to a concern that we have all heard and which was recently 
raised in a letter that I received from a constituent in Cuyahoga 
Falls, Ohio. He wanted to know how Congress can help with rising gas 
prices, prices that are forcing him to spend less on taking care of his 
family and causing uncertainty and uneasiness. And it's with my 
constituent in mind that I offer this amendment today.
  Mr. Speaker, today we have an opportunity to join together to pass 
this amendment and do something for my constituent and for the middle 
class families like his across the country that exist in each and every 
district.
  At the outset, I want to be clear, this amendment, this motion, it 
does not kill the underlying bill. So regardless of whether you intend 
to vote for the legislation or against it, you will have the 
opportunity to do that today. This amendment simply offers us, 
Democrats and Republicans alike, the opportunity to speak up on behalf 
of our constituents loudly and clearly.
  What this amendment does is makes it clear that if the underlying 
bill passes, we want the President to take feasible steps to prevent 
gas prices from rising as a result of its passage and to take feasible 
steps to limit the seizure of American farmland. This should be an easy 
amendment for colleagues on both sides of the aisle to support. A vote 
for the amendment means standing up for American consumers to protect 
them against gas increases. A vote for this amendment means you are 
standing up for American families to protect them from unfair seizures 
of their property. These are the goals that all of us in this body, the 
people's House, should share.
  It is important that we act together to pass this amendment today 
because, make no mistake, at a time when gas prices are already too 
high, this bill in its current form will raise gas prices even higher, 
placing an even greater burden on American families and small 
businesses. We know this, Mr. Speaker, because TransCanada, the 
Canadian corporation that is building this pipeline, has admitted as 
much. TransCanada's own assessment from February of 2009 states that 
Keystone XL pipeline will increase the cost of a barrel of crude oil by 
$6.55 per barrel in the Midwest and $3 per barrel everywhere else.
  Mr. Speaker, this is simply unacceptable. It's unacceptable because 
far too many middle class families are already struggling. Without this 
amendment, this legislation amounts to salt in the wounds of working 
families, so many of whom have seen their jobs sent overseas and now 
they will see even more of their hard-earned dollars being sent out of 
the country and will have to pay more for gas to boot.
  And this legislation, in its current form, also stands to harm our 
small business owners, putting a larger financial burden on them at a 
time when we have called on them to create jobs and lead the way in our 
recovery. It will burden our family farmers who will now have to pay 
more to gas up their combines and buy fertilizer.
  But an increase in gas prices is not the only reason this legislation 
needs to be amended. From South Dakota to Texas, we have a situation 
where the non-U.S. energy company building this pipeline has been 
pushing American farmers and ranchers to give up their rights to their 
own property. And for those who have resisted, the company--in pursuit 
of billions of dollars--has been taking Americans to court to seize 
control of their land through eminent domain. TransCanada has been 
bringing these lawsuits even before they have the permits to build the 
pipeline.
  These outrageous acts are bringing Democrats and Republicans together 
to speak out on behalf of property owners and to ensure that their 
rights come before the rights of any big corporation. That is the way 
it should be--us standing together to protect American consumers and 
property owners.
  Mr. Speaker, our country needs to protect the rights of our citizens, 
not subject those rights to a foreign corporation. Mr. Speaker, our 
constituents pay high enough gas prices. They need us to stand up and 
do all that we can to prevent the admitted increases that will occur 
according to TransCanada's own study. With this amendment, we can join 
together to do just that. We can put the American people before 
politics and before corporate profits and ensure that the President 
takes any feasible steps to protect against gas increases and limit the 
taking of property through eminent domain that will result from this 
legislation. This final amendment will ensure these things while 
allowing for an immediate final vote on the bill.
  I encourage my colleagues to stand together and vote ``yes'' on this 
final amendment.
  Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
  Mr. TERRY. Mr. Speaker, I rise in opposition to the motion to 
recommit.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Nebraska is recognized 
for 5 minutes.
  Mr. TERRY. Mr. Speaker, I urge all of my colleagues here to vote 
against this. This is, A, nonsensical and not even relevant here. Why? 
Well, maybe some of my friends on the other side of the aisle have 
confused a public works

[[Page H5538]]

project with this private infrastructure project.
  Number one, private companies do not have any rights of eminent 
domain; they can't take people's lands. So this part about them 
exercising eminent domain is just not relevant here. They aren't doing 
this; they don't have the power.
  The other part is equally as nonsensical. Listen, this is a $13 
billion stimulus infrastructure bill.

                              {time}  1820

  This is what all of us have been asking for because it creates 
thousands of jobs, 20,000 direct union construction jobs. Now, the 
Laborers International Union of North America supports this bill. 
International Brotherhood of Teamsters, United Association of 
Journeymen and Apprentices of the Plumbing and Pipefitting Industry of 
the United States, the AFL-CIO International Union of Operating 
Engineers, the Pipeline Contractors Association. These are the people. 
It's the labor. It's the jobs that are going to be created here, and 
we're standing with the American people.
  Now, this other argument that we have been debating ad nauseam 
throughout the afternoon about bringing in 700,000 to 1.2 million 
barrels per day from Canada that is somehow going to raise prices at 
the pump. I'm sorry, I went through some economics. I don't see how 
adding supply, adding American jobs, making a reliable source of 
energy, and eliminating uncertainty is going to drive up costs. It 
doesn't make sense.
  Let's stand with the American people. Let's create 100,000 new jobs. 
Let's get America working. Let's get the prices down at the pump. Vote 
against this motion for reconsideration, and let's vote to put people 
back to work.
  I yield back the balance of my time.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the previous question is 
ordered on the motion to recommit.
  There was no objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion to recommit.
  The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that 
the noes appeared to have it.


                             Recorded Vote

  Ms. SUTTON. Mr. Speaker, I demand a recorded vote.
  A recorded vote was ordered.
