                              JOB KILLING

  (Mr. KINGSTON asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. KINGSTON. Mr. Speaker, last year the brains over at the EPA, in 
all their wisdom, came out with the conclusion that since milk comes 
from animal fat and fat has oil in it, therefore milk is a hazardous 
substance. And so if a dairy farmer has a spill in a milk tank, they 
have to have a hazardous substance evacuation plan. It was so 
ridiculous that Democrats and Republicans alike worked to repeal the 
law.
  This is just one of the crazy examples that we see day after day from 
the bureaucracy in Washington, and it's one reason why businesses 
aren't investing in new jobs. There is a lot of money on the sideline 
right now because of regulatory uncertainty. Businesses need to know 
the rules of the game in order to engage. Right now there's no 
motivation to do it.
  There is a beer brewery, and they came up with a beer called St. 
Paulie's Liquid Wisdom, just a whimsical kind of name. But what did 
Uncle Manny say? You can't have that name because it's a medical claim. 
That is the state of job killing in this administration.
