Stated for:
Mrs. NAPOLITANO. Mr. Chair, on Wednesday, June 25, 2014, I was absent during rollcall vote No. 357 due to a medical emergency in my family. Had I been present, I would have voted ``aye'' on Representative Peter DeFazio (OR) Amendment.

The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under the rule, the previous question is ordered.

If not, the question is on the amendment in the nature of a substitute, as amended.

The bill was ordered to be engrossed and read a third time, and was read the third time.
Motion to Recommit
Mr. GARAMENDI. Mr. Speaker, I have a motion to recommit at the desk.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is the gentleman opposed to the bill?
Mr. GARAMENDI. I am opposed to the bill.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will report the motion to recommit.
The Clerk read as follows:
Mr. Garamendi moves to recommit the bill, H.R. 6, to the Committee on Energy and Commerce with instructions to report the same back to the House forthwith with the following amendment:
Page 2, after line 22, insert the following new section:
SEC. 4. PROHIBITING HIGHER NATURAL GAS PRICES FOR UNITED
STATES CONSUMERS AND PROTECTING OUR NATIONAL
SECURITY.
In reviewing an application for authorization to export natural gas under section 3 of the Natural Gas Act (15 U.S.C. 717b), the Department of Energy--
(1) shall deny such application if--
(A) the export would increase the price of natural gas, electricity, or home heating for American seniors on fixed incomes; or
(B) the natural gas would be exported to any nation that is a state sponsor of terrorism or otherwise threatens America's national security, or to any nation or corporation that steals America's military technology or intellectual property through cyber-attacks; and
(2) shall require, as a condition for approval of any such authorization, the applicant to ensure that United States-flagged ships and shipping containers are used to export the LNG.
Open With
CJG: I have a motion to recommit at the desk. . . .
Speaker Pro Temp: Is the gentleman opposed to the bill?
CJG: I am opposed.
Speaker Pro Temp: The gentleman qualifies and the Clerk will read the amendment.
Clerk reads (Democratic Sponsor can ask UC to dispense with reading or if the Recommit is short, just allow reading to be completed.)
CJG: This is the final amendment to the bill which will not kill the bill or send it back to committee. If adopted, the bill will immediately proceed to final passage as amended.
This amendment would prohibit approval of applications export natural gas if:
The export increased the price of natural gas, electricity or home heating for American seniors on fixed incomes; OR
The natural gas were to be exported to a state sponsor of terrorism or a country that engaged in cyber-attacks against the U.S.;
This amendment would also require that before an application could be approved:
The applicant would have to ensure that U.S.-flagged ships and shipping containers would be used to export the LNG.
Mr. GARDNER (during the reading). Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent to dispense with the reading.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the gentleman from Colorado?
Mr. GARAMENDI. I object.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Objection is heard.
The Clerk will read.
The Clerk continued to read.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from California is recognized for 5 minutes.
Mr. GARAMENDI. Mr. Speaker, this is the final amendment to the bill, which will not kill the bill or send it back to the committee. If adopted, the bill will immediately proceed to final passage, as amended.
My colleagues, America is blessed with many, many resources--all of you, for example. America is blessed with great natural resources, among them natural gas.
We have seen a terrific increase in the availability of natural gas, and it has provided this Nation with the opportunity to have the lowest price energy among the industrial nations, an incredible advantage that we have received as a result of God's gift of natural gas.
The question for all of us to ponder for a moment is: How will we use that natural gas and to whose benefit will it inure?
This bill will provide for the protection of Americans who have, from these number of years, enjoyed a reasonable price for their energy, but if this bill moves forward as presently written, we will be talking about seniors who will see higher prices in their natural gas and in their energy.
If this bill moves forward as it is currently written, we will be seeing our natural resource, this strategic asset, wind up in the hands of countries who support terrorists or countries who are engaged in industrial espionage through cyber attacks on our industry and on our government.
If this bill moves forward as it is presently written, we will not see American ships under our flag with our sailors taking this natural resource, this strategic asset, across the oceans.
However, ladies and gentlemen, if we approve this amendment, we will be protecting our seniors from higher energy prices because this bill says that, in determining the public interest, we will make sure our seniors are protected.
If we adopt this amendment, we will see that none of our natural resource--natural gas, a strategic asset--will wind up in the hands of countries who have supported terrorists.
{time} 1630
We will find that no country that allows people in their country to engage in cyber attacks against our industries or against our government will have our precious natural resource, and we will see American ships with American sailors and American flags on the ocean exporting this strategic national asset.
The question, therefore, for each and every one of us is this: With whom do you stand? The gas companies, who will have billions and billions of dollars of profits exporting? Or, do you stand with our seniors?
Who do you stand with? Countries that are engaged in cyberattacks against America, and who are supporting terrorists?
Who do you stand with? Do you stand with American sailors and shipbuilders?
That is the question. That is what this amendment is all about. It is about protecting America.
I ask for your ``aye'' vote, and I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. GARDNER. Mr. Speaker, I claim the time in opposition to the motion.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Colorado is recognized for 5 minutes.
Mr. GARDNER. Mr. Speaker, we recognize that motions to recommit are procedural motions that are not substantive legislative proposals. They are offered by the minority party, whether Republican or Democrat, with the goal of undermining or stopping the underlying legislation on the floor.
The Department of Energy's public interest consideration already looks at the concerns that you raise in this procedural motion. They already look at the factors that you talk about in this procedural motion.
No liquefied natural gas can go to countries which we have sanctions on or are otherwise restricted in law.
This administration has already said this will provide a net benefit to our economy. This administration has said U.S. natural gas prices will not rise to world prices. This administration has said that studies consistently demonstrate net economic benefits across all scenarios and export volumes. This administration has said the U.S. manufacturing renaissance is unlikely to be harmed by LNG exports.
If you stand for this bill you stand for jobs, you stand for economic opportunity, and you stand against delays. Let's pass this bill and defeat the motion to recommit.
Mr. Speaker, let's oppose the motion to recommit and do what is right for America, creating jobs for us and our allies, answering the call for freedom at home.
I yield back the balance of my time.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the previous question is ordered on the motion to recommit.
There was no objection.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion to recommit.
The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that the noes appeared to have it.
Recorded Vote
Mr. GARAMENDI. Mr. Speaker, I demand a recorded vote.
A recorded vote was ordered.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 9 of rule XX, this 5-
minute motion on the motion to recommit will be followed by a 5-minute on passage of the bill, if ordered.
