Vaught All right. So, Representative Boyd, would you like to go to the end of the table and present House Resolution 1036?
Boyd Madam Chair, thank– and committee members, thank you for indulging me to hear House resolution1036. This is really a simple resolution from the standpoint of, you know, a year ago, roughly, gas prices in Arkansas were about $1.70a gallon. They are now upwards of $3 a gallon. And we are sending millions of dollars overseas to people in a way that potentially threatens our– does threaten our national security. And I just think it’s time that we restart, you know, the– resume, the Keystone XL pipeline. And that said, I’d be happy to try to answer any questions.
