H.R. 607 is before the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, where it awaits further action. Please be assured I will keep your thoughts in mind should this or similar legislation be brought to the floor of the House in the 112th Congress. > > Do not hesitate to contact me with comments or concerns you may have related to this or any other issue.
