as a result, the group pearson did agree -- the group here did agree on something which i consider controversial or effective with either legislation or rolls. i want to emphasize that this is a proposal designed to address the problem of the earmarks and clean up the earmarking process. it is not a campaign finance proposal. it applies only to the earmarking process itself. it should be viewed as a narrow response to what is a very serious problem. it is based upon years of experience we have had in other states. there are about eight states. the sec has established pay for play proposals when it comes to government contracts in order to clean up the government contracting process. this is not a campaign finance law, but a means to make sure these are awarded on performance. we adopted the paper plant loss to the earmarking process and we think we can up with an effective solution. -- we adopted the pay for play ball. there is a definition of business entity is defined quite broadly trying to restrict campaign car attributions. it includes no principles of the business entities. the president,
