a great pair for america and the state of nebraska. as a senator from an agricultural state i know the value he brought to the cabinet when he was secretary of agriculture. i know what a great job did he as governor and the last six years working side by side with mike johanns has been a real treat. he's a gentleman, a scholar, he doesn't do anything he doesn't know what he's doing and if he's not always right, he's almost always right because he's always got stephanie to guide him in the right direction. i i'd like to pay tribute to a great couple, a great united states senator and a personal friend, mike johanns and his lovely wife, stephanie. i yield back. the presiding officer: the senator from nebraska. mr. johanns, thank you, madam president. mr. johanns: thank you, madam president. let me say i appreciate the fine words of senators chain, chambliss, isakson, there are a few others that will weigh in and express a thought or two and i can't express how much i appreciate it. i would like to offer a few thoughts, my farewell though

the first question on the state government's pushback, i live in nebraska right now. i have lived over the last 15 years in iowa and then a soda as well and i can tell you these are states that are entirely beholden to the interest in the various states. they are huge campaign donors and the guerrillas of the state politics. they are the big industry that exists in the states. iowa in particular. ramstad, the governor has made it quite clear that whatever the industry wants is there to give to them. so you end up in situations where not only is the industry asking for specific things and getting them, but any time that there is an opportunity to reduce the regulation of the industry, it is sort of offered as a matter of course. >> i am just wondering if he ran into any of these restrictions or did they shut down on your or what was your reporting experience. >> so, i haven't run into the restrictions per se. what i have seen is over the course of the reporting there is a kind of heightened sense of awareness from the places that are publishing the work that i'm workin

now, what does nebraska and oklahoma say? that's say that's nice but you're in violation of federal law. then guess what, randi, it's the federal government that should be concerned about that, not states. it's the federal government's fight not nebraska and oklahoma's fight. so the reality is this. the federal government has said we're not going to enforce this, not going to step into this. here's where nebraska and oklahoma come in. they say wait a second, you're having effect on our economy. we're arresting people coming in. our jail cost are going up, court costs are going up because of what you're doing in your state. it's a federal issue. does nebraska and oklahoma have standing or ability to bring forward a suit that involves the federal government? they say yes you're affecting our economy. colorado says no. we do what we want to do. >> where does it stop? if you do it with marijuana, it might lead to what? >> what happens is this. if you make the argument that marijuana is having an effect upon my state because every

colorado or nebraska and oklahoma? go vote at cnbc.com/vote.e, explain what's going on. >> we have a big fight brewing here. the attorneys general of nebraska and oklahoma are asking the supreme court to put an end to colorado's experiment in legalizing pot. they say colorado's law violates the controlled substances act of 1970 and it is burdening their law enforcement in the states. the fact that the federal government is allowing legal cannabis to be bought and sold means the drug is seeping across state lines and they are just not happy about it. they say they are hardly scared. for example, one who owns an edibles company says the industry is too big to fail and oklahoma and nebraska will have to prove that they have endured irreparable harm thanks to colorado's legalization. another pot shop owner says a supreme court suit is small potatoes compared to other things that used to keep him up at night like an aggressive dea. the suit comes at a time when the pulse of the nation seems to swing in legalization favor. this last mid term election

the other thing is nebraska politics. the state legislature has no political party and there is a very strong populist tradition that has come into play. a lot of locals dubbed adtran canada took liberties, threatened eminent domain, seized land sooner than they could have, and generally did not act like a good neighbor and that raised a lot of the common sentiment that has just become more intense. , --: a story on omaha.com we are talking about the land along the route that would be used for the pipeline. eminent domainis issue that appeals to a lot of the conservatives opposed to the project. going back to that supreme court case, a law would give keystone a new route but would also give transcanada two years from its passage to use eminent domain powers to take land, even from landlord to -- who do not want to make a deal. only 14 of your years. where it gets interesting, eminent domain rights expire at the end of january but this law is being challenged in the supreme court right now. you can see transcanada tried to

in 1999, mike left the mayor's office and moved over to the nebraska state capital where he served six years as governor. he said one of his proudest gubernatorial achievements was enacting a mental health law that improved the least of nebraska's neediest and most vulnerable residents. that to me tells you about his character and sense of compassion. born and raised as a farm boy, mike was named america's 28th secretary of agriculture in 2005. over the next three years, he held more than 50 separate forums on the farm bill, more than 50. not surprisingly, he continued working on agriculture-related issues when he joint the united states senate. indeed, he's been a true leader, fighting passionately to defend the rights and livelihoods of farmers and ranchers everywhere, especially nebraska. these are issues that are vitally important to millions and millions of americans, including mike's constituents. but they're not the kinds of issues that help land you prime time appearances on cable news. luckily for us, mike doesn't care about media attention, but he does care about is doing the
