Mr. President, earlier this month Saddam Hussein indicated that he was terminating oil production for 30 days. That would terminate oil from Iraq to the United States.

I have a chart in the Chamber that shows currently the oil that we are receiving from Iraq. This chart shows the historic trend of crude oil imports from Iraq to the United States. In January, it was about 294,000 barrels. In June, it went up to 973,000 barrels.

One of the extraordinary things occurred in September. In September, it was at a high of almost 1.2 million barrels. Lest we forget, during September we had a terrorist attack in New York, in Washington, DC, and the downing of the aircraft in Pennsylvania.

What does this have to do with Iraq? Well, we have known for some time that Saddam Hussein has been fostering and supporting terrorist activities. And to give you some idea, let me show you this little replica of an acknowledged statement from his Government relative to providing funding to the Palestinian suicide bombers. There is a check for $25,000. Previous to this, he was providing payments of up to $10,000. With an incentive of $25,000, God only knows to what extent terrorist activities will continue.

Yet as we look at the United States and the trends we have seen in oil imports, as the Mideast crisis worsens, we see the price of oil rise.

We also have another chart. We have seen this oil come into the United States. People probably don't really know from where their oil comes. Probably most of them don't care. It comes in to identified areas of New Jersey, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota, Missouri, Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, California, and Washington.

The irony here is obvious, if we go back to 1992 and look at the desolation associated with the burning of the oilfields in Kuwait. Recognize that we are now importing or have been importing about 1 million barrels of oil a day from Iraq. Then with the notice by the Government of Iraq that they are going to terminate production, clearly one has to wonder if it is in the principal interest of the United States to rely on this source.

Earlier in the day, we voted on the issue of ANWR. It was a cloture motion. We did not obtain 60 votes. So far on the energy bill, it is fair to say that the only increase in domestic production identified was associated with ANWR. Perhaps it is ironic that Saddam Hussein should terminate production. But I think it is appropriate, from a principle point of view, that the United States, by formal action, end our imports from Iraq until a couple of things happen.

One is that the United Nations certifies that Iraq has complied with the Security Council resolution No. 687 and has dismantled their programs to develop and construct weapons of mass destruction; and that Iraq cease to smuggle oil in contravention of Security Council resolution No. 986; and finally, Iraq no longer pays bounties to the families of suicide bombers wreaking havoc in Israel.

I recognize the Iraqi oil program is intended to be used for the benefit of the Iraqi people. But that is not the case. My amendment also seeks to ensure that the President use every means available to support humanitarian needs of the Iraqi people, notwithstanding the ban on oil imports.

Most Members consider themselves internationalists. I believe firmly in the importance of engagement with other countries, particularly economic engagement. I am a strong believer in free trade and have worked with many of my colleagues to reform economic sanctions and policies. However, it is time to draw the line on economic engagement when national security is compromised.

Our increasing dependence on unstable overseas sources of oil is compromising our national security. We have seen Saddam Hussein last week urge fellow Arab OPEC members to use oil as a weapon. We have seen what an aircraft can do as a weapon. Saddam Hussein did that by imposing this 30-day embargo of oil exports to the United States until the United States forced Israel to cave in to the demands of the Palestinian extremists.

In 1973, the Arab League used oil as a weapon during a time of similar crisis in the Mideast. At that time, the United States was 37- percent dependent on imported oil. Still the Arab oil embargo demonstrates how powerful a weapon oil can be. And the United States was brought to its knees. Several of us remember during that time of the Yom Kippur War, there were gas lines around the block. The public was blaming everybody for the inconvenience, including Government.

During that particular timeframe, however, the TransAlaska Pipeline was completed. Oil began to flow. And within a few years, 25 percent of our domestic oil production came from Prudhoe Bay. As a consequence, imports dropped dramatically. But that was then and this is now. Times change. On the other hand, how much they stay the same.

Nearly 30 years after the Arab oil embargo, we are faced with a similar threat that we faced in 1973, but there is a difference. The difference is now we are 58-percent dependent on imported oil. Back in 1973, we were 37 percent. The stakes are higher. The national security implications are more evident. One wonders what we have learned. From the vote earlier today, I wonder that, too.

Before us is the reality that Saddam Hussein has called on his Arab neighbors to use oil as a weapon and begin a 30-day moratorium on exports. The United States was importing over 1 million barrels of oil from Iraq.

As we look at the situation in the Mideast today, our Secretary of State, having made every effort to bring the parties together, understanding withdrawal, whatever it took, and the appearance at least that Egypt has refused to meet with our Secretary of State, Mubarak, what that means, I guess one could look between the pages of history and come up with some kind of an evaluation. Things certainly are better but they might get worse.

Reality dictates if you filled up your tank, chances are at least a half a gallon of the gasoline in your tank originally came from Iraq. Think about that. This is the same guy who pays bounties on suicide bombers of $25,000, who fires at our sons and daughters flying missions in the no-fly zones in Iraq, who has used chemical weapons on his own people, who has boasted that he has the weapons to scorch half of Israel.

But when you innocently filled up your tank, you paid Saddam Hussein perhaps a nickel of every dollar you spent at the pump that day. You contributed to some extent to the suicide bombings. You bought shells targeted at American forces. You paid for chemical and biological weapons being developed in Iraq which are targeted at Israel and those Iraqis who would challenge Saddam Hussein.

This article can be used as a reminder of the costly mistakes of not dealing with him. It is more or less a play-by-play review of the gulf war that we are in now but new names and a new era from 2002 could just as easily be inserted into the article. These lessons must not be lost. We recognize he is our enemy. The world must isolate him, cut him off and coax his regime to an early death.

But we haven't learned our lesson, have we? He is still there because we are still buying his oil. Sure, these purchases are masked in the Oil for Food Program, but is it really working? He is still there.

I know the Oil for Food Program isn't supposed to work this way. Saddam is supposed to use the money from Oil for Food to feed the Iraqi people and buy medicine. But we know he cheats on the program, buying all kinds of questionable materials, and that he smuggles billions of dollars of oil out of Iraq, which directly funds his armies, his weapons programs, and his palaces.

I had an opportunity to be in Baghdad several years ago with a number of Senators. We met with Saddam Hussein. This was just before the gulf war. Regarding the circumstances of that meeting, I won't go into any detail, but they are very interesting. He invited us to lunch and never brought lunch. What we got out of the meeting was the recognition that this was a force to be dealt with.

I began the statement by affirming my support for economic engagement. I believe deeply in the principle of free trade. I do not, however, believe in economic disarmament. When, as is the case with oil, a commodity is not only important to our own economic health but also important to our military's ability to defend the Nation, self- sufficiency is a crucial matter. No country or group of countries should have the ability to ground our aircraft, shut down our tanks, or keep our ships from leaving port. Yet allowing ourselves to become dependent on imports of this nature threatens to do just that.

In the case of Saddam Hussein, we are dependent for some 5 percent of our imports from a sworn and defiant enemy. There he is on that chart. But our reliance on other foreign sources of oil is not risk-free. We have a very uneasy relationship with our friends in the gulf. September 11 clearly demonstrated that our enemies in such staunch allies as Saudi Arabia may outnumber our friends.

We already have some form of economic sanction on every single member of OPEC -- a reflection of the uneasy relationship that we have with these nations. So this is risky business relying on countries such as these for our national security.

Some Members have long recognized the folly of importing oil from our enemies -- some more than others. But on July 25, we extended sanctions on importing oil from Iran and Libya. We have not imported any oil from those countries for some time because the sanctions were in existence. We didn't initiate sanctions against Iraq. Well, it is time we did.

Does relying on Iraq make more sense than relying on Iran and Libya? I don't think so. I know that many of my colleagues advocate production in less risky parts of the globe, including here in the United States. The trouble is, we have to drill for oil where we are likely to find it. The fact is, the ground under which most of the oil is buried is controlled by unstable, unfriendly, or at-risk governments.

Look at Colombia and the oilfields being developed in the pristine rain forests down there. We get some 350,000 barrels a day from Colombia.

The 408-mile-long Cano Limo pipeline is at the heart of the Colombian oil trade, and it frequently is attacked by FARC rebels. They have declared the pipeline to be a "military target." They are anticapitalist, anti-United States, anti-Colombian Government rebels.

The trouble is, the half of the country these rebels control has the Cano Limo pipeline running through it -- a convenient target to cripple the economy, get America's attention, and rally their troops for their cause. Countless attacks have cost some 24 barrels in lost crude production last year and untold environmental damage to the rain forest ecosystem.

Last year, rebels bombed the Cano Limo 170 times, putting it out of commission for 266 days, costing Colombia roughly $500 million in lost revenue.

Our administration wants to spend $98 million to train a brigade of 2,000 Colombian soldiers to protect the pipeline. Now, last week, another rebel faction called American oil companies running the pipeline "military targets." I wonder if we are truly unfazed about the close connection between oil, money, and national security. Are we willing to turn our heads on the Mideast crisis to finance the schemes of Saddam Hussein? Are we willing to allow our policy choices in the Middle East to be dictated by our thirst for imported oil from this particular source? Are we willing to let our oil be used as a weapon against us?

We should not allow our national security to be compromised. I know some today have dismissed ANWR as a solution. But the relevance here is principle. Our military cannot conduct a campaign associated with dependence on such unreliable sources.

I sympathize with the desire to eliminate the use of fossil fuels. I believe we will get there with continued research and new technologies. I understand the urge to deny the importance of oil in the national security equation. But all of my colleagues will eventually have to look in the mirror after this debate and ask themselves, again, to what extent we are willing to sacrifice our national security in order to appeal to the fantasies associated with the desires of Saddam Hussein.

One of the things I think is testimony to the severity of how we deal with Iraq is the responsibility of the President and Joint Chiefs of Staff, his Cabinet, and others, as we have observed the reality that he is developing weapons of mass destruction. He has a delivery system capable of sending a missile to Israel. But he has been working on a nuclear capability. When is the world going to deal with that? Had we known what was about to occur relative to the tragic events associated with September 11, we would have taken action against Osama bin Laden. Had we only known.

In the case of Saddam Hussein, the exposure is there. The question is, When and how? Buying oil and increasing our dependence on that country is certainly not the answer because we are funding whatever mischief Saddam Hussein is up to. So that is the purpose of this amendment, Mr. President.

I urge my colleagues to think a little bit about the principle involved and join me in support of the amendment. Again, the irony is that he has cut us off for 30 days. The ramifications of that, the future will tell. Will the OPEC nations increase production and make up for the shortfall? They have indicated they might. Will the price of oil likely go up because of the shortage of supply? It is already going up.

Clearly, by an action taken by the Senate to formally terminate imports from that country, we will send him a message, but will somebody else simply take our place and buy Saddam Hussein's oil?

In any event, I think it is appropriate, from a principle point of view, for the United States to terminate its relationship with Iraq, as the amendment proposes, until such time as he commits to abide by the U.N. agreement, which requires that we have inspectors in Iraq to ensure that he is not a threat to the world; further, that he commits to halt any further funding of suicide bombers associated with the terrible activities occurring in Israel and Palestine.

Mr. President, let me make a few comments with regard to the amendment, and I do not know that I will be in opposition, but I have some concerns I wish to express -- and perhaps ask a few questions -- I have the amendment in front of me -- my understanding of what the amendment is that first of all, it does not in any way prohibit Iraq from exporting oil. I think that is clear. Iraq has made a decision just recently to suspend its exports of oil for 30 days. So that is in place, as I understand it. But this amendment does not prohibit Iraq from exporting oil or does not commit us to any action which would in any way prohibit Iraq from exporting oil.

Second, it does not prohibit us from importing oil from other sources. What it basically says is, we can continue to import whatever the percentage is -- 50 percent, 56 percent -- of our oil needs from the world market. We just cannot import from this source.

Basically, it takes the decision, which has been our national policy, that we would import legally exported Iraqi oil, just as we would import other oil. It says that in order for us to continue with that activity, the President has to give us a certification that it is not inconsistent with our national security or foreign policy interests to do so.

Obviously, our relations with Iraq are a very serious foreign policy issue for our country at this time, and I am persuaded that most Members of the Senate would be very anxious to work in cooperation with the administration and with the President in formulating our policy toward Iraq.

I do not know where the administration stands on this amendment. I do not know if there has been any request for their views on it. I would be anxious to hear from the sponsor of the amendment if he has had a reaction from the administration. We have made some informal inquiries, and we have been unable to get a response from the administration.

I, frankly, think the responsible course would be for us to give the administration a chance to tell us its views. If the President wants this legislation enacted, then obviously that would carry great weight with many Senators. If the President believes this puts him in an awkward position, in that it requires him to issue a certificate to permit continued imports of Iraqi oil, then I think we should know. Obviously, there are many Members of this body who do not want to put the President in an awkward position relative to our relations with Iraq.

I also have concerns about how an amendment such as this could be interpreted in world oil markets. We are very concerned that the price of gasoline has been going up in recent weeks, and we heard a lot about that during the ANWR debate that just concluded. Of course, that is a reflection, to some extent at least, of the rising price of oil on world markets. The price is up around $26 a barrel today, which is substantially higher than it was a few months ago. People are concerned about that.

However, the information I have is that one reason why we import oil from Iraq is that we are able to do so at a discount. Why is Iraq forced to sell its oil at a discount in the world market? Because it is considered by the market to be a somewhat unreliable source for oil, so they are not able to get the premium price that some other producers are able to get. U.S. refiners benefit from that, and U.S. consumers benefit from the fact that we are buying that oil at a discount.

The main point is pretty clear: If Iraq is going to decide at the end of this 30 days to commence exports again, it will find a buyer for that oil. It will likely continue to sell at a discount in the world market. If we prohibit the importation of that oil into the United States, that is not going to hurt Saddam Hussein. That is not going to hurt Iraq. Iraq will find a buyer for that oil. We will be buying the oil we need from another source, but we will be buying on the world market just as we are today.

As I say, I think there is less here than meets the eye as far as actually trying to impact or strike a blow against Saddam Hussein. I do not see that this amendment does that. I think, if anything, it puts our President in the awkward position of having to send a certificate to the Congress saying that, in his view, we should go ahead and continue to import Iraqi oil.

Maybe that is what the President would like. Maybe that is what the Secretary of State would like. Maybe that is what the Secretary of Energy would like.

My initial reaction to this kind of amendment, and I am sure the initial reaction of most Senators, is: Fine, this is an anti-Saddam Hussein vote. How do you go wrong, how do you lose support in your home State by voting against Saddam Hussein? I would venture to say nobody does.

I do not know that many Senators would want to vote against an amendment of this type, but if it is going to be pushed to a vote, I hope before the vote occurs -- and I know it is expected to occur very soon under the unanimous consent agreement -- I hope we can get some communication from the White House as to whether or not they support the amendment.

Mr. President, I oppose the amendment of the Senator from Alaska. I do not disagree with most of the findings in his amendment. Saddam Hussein is clearly in violation of his obligations under United Nations Security Council resolutions. He has repeatedly demonstrated his callous disregard for the plight of the Iraqi people. Humanitarian aid under the oil for food program has been diverted, languished in warehouses, or simply not purchased at all. As much of the Iraqi population goes without adequate health care and nutrition, Saddam lavishes luxury goods on his cronies and builds palaces.

As I stated at the outset, I do not see how this amendment will address the legitimate issues that the Senator cites. The proceeds for the legal purchase of Iraqi oil made by American companies are deposited in an escrow account controlled by the United Nations. Money in that account is then released for purchases of civilian goods. Before any money is spent, the sanctions committee, on which the United States sits, must approve every contract. In other words, we have a veto on how the money gets spent.

To be sure, the oil for food program has flaws. Saddam gets illegal revenues by selling oil outside the program and by collecting illegal surcharges from shady middlemen. It is these revenues that are used by Saddam to prop up his regime, pursue weapons of mass destruction, and pay the families of Palestinian suicide bombers. The Senator's amendment does not address the problem of illegal surcharges or smuggling.

I am also concerned that by effectively pulling the United States out of the oil for food program, we may be sending the signal that we are not interested in the welfare of the Iraqi people. I know that is not the Senator's intention, but it may be an unintended effect of his amendment. This could have an impact on the ability to pull together an effective coalition to confront Saddam.

Mr. President, I have no objection. Following that, I expect to yield back most of my time. I gather we are ready for a vote.

It is the intention of the prohibition on Iraqi-origin petroleum imports to terminate the imports, and they could then be addressed by the President and the President, after consultation with relative committees of Congress, can certify to the Congress that Iraq is substantially in compliance with the U.N.S.C. Resolution 687 and Resolution 986.

Resolution 986 prohibits smuggling of oil in circumvention of the Oil for Food Program, and 687 mandates inspections by U.N. inspectors. So the intent is clear. It is to terminate oil exports in the United States.

The Senator from New Mexico suggested we contemplate and be somewhat sensitive to the attitude of the White House. I think during our extended debate on ANWR we had an extended discussion about the attitude of the White House that did not prevail in this body.

I think what is germane, however, is the attitude of the White House with regard to the sanctions on Iran and Libya. They are quite clear, and I think there is a notable similarity. Those sanctions were initiated in retaliation to terrorist activities associated with Libya. What was it? The downing of Pan American flight 103 over Scotland. That is why we took that action. It was most appropriate. In Iran, in 1979, it was the Embassy takeover and the terrorist activities associated with that.

So we have a parallel. I do not think there is any question about it. We terminated a relationship in the sanction action against Libya and Iran for fostering terrorism.

If what is going on with Saddam Hussein is not an act of terrorism, I do not know what is. I indicated in my statement pretty much throughout, this is a matter of principle for the United States. I do not think there is any question about the justification. It is the same justification. Saddam Hussein is fostering terrorism, and I think we would all acknowledge that. So I think, with all due respect, that is the justification for this action.

Mr. President, I have discussed with Senator Bingaman a concern with his amendment No. 3016. In particular, I question whether we should structure the renewable portfolio standard to refer to the "capacity" of a renewable system or, as done in Senator Bingaman's amendment, to the "energy generated." I think we would simplify compliance by staying with a "capacity-based" standard, but I realize that this is a complex issue. I strongly recommend that we return to this issue in conference and carefully evaluate the pros and cons of these two approaches.
