We'll call our meeting to order.
I want to thank all of our witnesses for being here today and remind the committee and our witnesses that we have votes today. They shouldn't affect the length of our meeting, but I want to get started on time anyway.
With no further ado, I'm going to turn it over to our first speaker, Mr. Ballantyne, from the Coalition of Rail Shippers.
Take 10 minutes or less, please.
