[Congressional Record (Bound Edition), Volume 156 (2010), Part 7] [House] [Pages 9427-9428] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office, www.gpo.gov]STRAIGHT FROM BP'S WEB SITE (Mr. GUTIERREZ asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. GUTIERREZ. Mr. Speaker, here is an excerpt straight from BP's Web site. ``Code of conduct is the cornerstone of their commitment to integrity.'' You can't make this stuff up. It goes on to say ``Great companies are built on trust. Trust is earned through the achievement of consistently high standards of behavior and care.'' Wait, but it gets better. The document also says that among the ``basic rules you must follow'' at BP is always to ``make sure you know what to do if an emergency occurs at your place of work.'' Straight from BP's Web site. Well, 40 days into one of the worst ecological disasters of our time, BP has yet to meet its own commitment in its Web site to its own integrity. If the code of conduct is consistently violated, causing massive destruction and loss of life, then that employee or contractor would be terminated. The American people should demand no less. Today I plan to introduce an amendment to the Department of Defense authorization bill to begin the process of terminating BP's business with the American people. Please join me in supporting my amendment to ensure [[Page 9428]] that BP is permanently banned from profiting off the American taxpayer. ____________________
