| It is a good reform. It creates an added deterrent to things being added (to conference reports) at the last minute. |
| It looks like they're going to do what they should have done in the first place. There's been a lot of pressure on them to make sure that the economic benefit of these contracts stays in the Gulf Coast and doesn't flow to corporate boardrooms thousands of miles away.
