mr. president, we want to add two more cosponsors today, senator hester and senator markey, and that brings us to a total of 35 cosponsors on this very important and common sense and amendment outlining the importance of the biggest 21st century trade barrier, and that is currency manipulation. i want to thank everyone who is joining together to cosponsor this. i also know there is a tremendous amount of energy going on to defeat this amendment going on in this last day and a lot of amendments -- comments made on the floor, and i want to first of all say that -- in response to comments from someone i have great respect for, the senator from tennessee who has an incredibly report and -- incredibly important role on policy issues, i would caution that we would call support for manufacturing, whether it would be auto or others, or supply trains, or manufacturing when we talk about protecting american jobs, i would point to the fact that there is a very important company of coal in tennessee that just received advanced technology vehicle loans and i was proud to offer -- author that bill. they
