            By Mr. GOSAR:
        H.R. 4740.
        Congress has the power to enact this legislation pursuant 
     to the following:
       Congress's authority to enact laws regulating the 
     environment, in this case the National Environmental Policy 
     Act, derives primarily from findings related to the Commerce 
     Clause, found in Article I Sec.  8 of the U.S. Constitution. 
     The Commerce Clause reserves to the federal government the 
     right to regulate interstate commerce--or commerce between 
     states.
