From the transcript
Just to put my two cents in, I along with you will probably not be supporting the amendment. I think it's a good effort to try to come to some kind of resolution with the North Slope, but I am persuaded by their argument that, you know, the resource comes from the region and they'd like to have more say over what they do within their region.. And I'm supportive of that effort. So with that, do we have any further discussion? Seeing none.
