Mrs. FISCHER. Mr. President, our national parks are facing $13
billion in maintenance needs. The entire Federal land of States is
looking at $22 billion in needs. We want to keep these resources and
parks open for our children and grandchildren to marvel at and enjoy.
All of us have unique and special areas within our States, but we in
Congress have the responsibility to care for the natural resources of
our country.
This amendment has been softened so that the limitations are now just
considerations. Let's vote yes on this amendment to take care of the
resources we have so that future generations can enjoy them.
