                            INTENT TO OBJECT

  Mr. GRASSLEY. Mr. President, I, Senator Grassley, intend to object to 
the consideration of S. 520, S. 530, S. 871, and S. 1057. These bills 
would eliminate or modify current incentives for the production and use 
of domestic, renewable biofuels. I object to their consideration 
because they would lead to greater dependence on foreign oil, increased 
prices at the gas pump for consumers, increased greenhouse gas 
emissions, and the loss of U.S. jobs. They also represent poor tax 
policy.
