I'm guessing that this is the sub-committee that is drafting this bill (based on the name of the resolution):

House Committee on Resources

Maryland has just been re-gerrymandered....err, I mean re-districted, and I've been squeezed out of the second district into the first. I've never been a big fan of the first district incumbent. But looky, looky who's on this committee. For the first time in my life, I'm going to write to my congressman, (as well as the rest of the Maryland delegation). Let's see if he can earn my vote.

And don't forget to carbon copy Secretary Norton and, oh heck, ol' Dubya himself. We may end up having to urge him to veto the darn thing!
