Ever since I've been in Congress, various groups on the business side, those entities that are creating jobs out there, have felt that the Clean Air Act is really - that there are all sorts of presumptions in favor of the environmentalists.
Cricket is my passion; it is my first love. So I will not act in my movies, as they will just be a side business for me.
