this summer with the leadership of the committee chairman, senator thune and ranking member bill nelson, both champions of rail safety in this instance, resulted in some very key reforms, and the senate passed the drive act. not perfect, troublesome in some highway safety elements but forward thinking on rail safety. it includes funding for p.t.c., redundant signal protection, improved inspection practices, and a follow-up on the f.r.a. deep dive investigation. these provisions help along with cameras and grade crossings to advance the cause of rail safety. the house has done nothing. the house bill is completely and objectly lacking on rail safety. therefore, this motion instructs our conferees to insist on the senate's provisions. i know that our conferees will be extremely sympathetic and supportive, but simply to express our views, i ask that this measure be approved and that the motion be taken on voice vote. and i ask that all remaining time be yielded back. the presiding officer: is there objection? without objection. the question occurs on the motion. hearing no further debate,

want to thank you for your work on this bill and the opportunity to share my views. >> thank you very much. >> thank you, mr. chairman thune, ranking member nelson and members of the committee. this morning i would like to make three points. no one has been paying attention over the decades as consumer rights have been stripped away where unseen forecast of contracts have been disparaged by the growth of the clauses. the idea behind the legislation is a good one and fits intro a long history of legislation action designed not only to protect consumers but our market economy. and as of now, we are unable to support this bill because it seeks to limit the enforcement rights of state and federal officials. when i see non-disparagement clauses i see the logical conclusion of a decades long corporate effort to strip consumers of another fundamental right. consumers are typically required to wave all sorts of rights including the right to seek relief in the justice system and now the right to even speak. the use of non-negotiable contracts, people have been stripped of the 7th amendment right of a jury trial and why should we be surprised businesses w
