i would like to go back to ms. thomas. easing regulatory burden on energy resources is something that we talked about numerous times. and i'm surprised that nations don't have their ability to control their own destiny in energy development. in rural america we have a electric co-ops that are not for profit entities. are you asking for something like that in that ability to create some energy independence from -- for indian nations? >> thank you, congressman. in about 16 states rural electric co-ops are not regulated by the state utility commissions. and the rest of the states they are. in arizona, for example, our arizona corporation commission does regulate the rural electric co-ops from a rate-making standpoint, tariffs, reliability. they're subject to the state's renewable energy standard. in 16 states, the states don't exercise jurisdiction. so the co-ops like public power companies, like lawp, get their own rates. they're member owned and driven. so the idea is that the members would help control what the co-op does.
