introduced this legislation with my democrat colleagues senators done lee, senator heitkamp, senator manchinl as many of my republican colleagues and i appreciate all of my colleagues who spoke out in favor of this legislation. let me just conclude this discussion with these thoughts. our beautiful rivers and lakes deserve protection, and this boss nothing to block -- this bill does nothing to block the waters of the united states. by striking the right balance, we'll restore washington's attention to the country's traditional waterways. protecting these cherished natural resources. at the same time we'll give certainty to farmers, ranchers, small business owners that they can use their property reasonably without fear of constant washington intervention. the existing rule on waters of the united states is the poster child of e.p.a. overreach. the courts have already begun to weigh in on their concerns and have stayed the rule nationally. there's a great legal uncertainty about whether waters of the united states will survive these legal challenges. these challenges could take years. meanwhi

legislation that i introduced along with a number of democrat senators, senator donnelly, heitkamp, and manchin, along with many other senators. the senator from california previously spoke, and i would just point out to her that the california chamber of commerce supports my legislation. the california farm bureau supports my legislation. because this legislation will protect our nation's navigable waters and the streams and wetlands that help our navigable waters say clean. this bill is a testament to the hard work both sides of the aisle has done in achieving an agreement on an environmental protection bill. our rivers, our lakes, our wetlands, all other waterways are among america's most treasured resources. in my home state of wyoming, we have some of the most beautiful rivers in the world. the snake river, the wind river, dozens of others. people from around the world come to wyoming. they come to visit because we have an environmental landscape that is second to none. anyone who has come to my state and experienced yellowstone national park, the grand tetons, the bighorn mountains, comes
