mr. speaker , i yield myself the balance of my time . 
mr. speaker , this task force creates an opportunity to bypass , eliminate the bureaucracy and fragmentation of the myriad of jurisdictions of this body . 
this task force creates a new dynamic . 
it brings people in , democrats , republicans . 
it brings the public into the process . 
it brings scientists into the process . 
it brings people who work in all the various marine industries into the process to evaluate , to analyze in a very clinical manner the ocean commission recommendations . 
this is about specific recommendations coming out of a bipartisan task force with the idea that we eliminate bureaucracy ; we eliminate the committee jurisdiction problems and hand to these various committees the specific recommendations that we have evaluated over this 6-month period of time . 
the subcommittee is moving legislation with the recommendations from the ocean commission report and the pew commission report on oceans . 
we are dealing with what to do about sanctuaries , marine protected areas , coral reefs , marine debris , magnuson issues , ecosystem management of the fisheries . 
all of these things subject to our jurisdiction and the rules of the house are being moved through that subcommittee . 
i urge my colleagues to vote in favor of the task force .
