all of us love this Nation. But how can all of us love this land unconditionally when there exists a law on the books that allows partial-birth abortion? In America today, an abortionist begins partial-birth abortion by causing a woman to…

It is said to those that have been given much, much will be expected. It is with this sense of duty and obligation that the President has turned the Nation's attention, America's attention, to the realization that our Nation can use a…

do not take the word of a Congressman who visited the North Slope for the last 3 days. Take the words of Herman Aishana, a whaling captain who serves on the Kaktovik City Council and is the former mayor. We have got Members of Congress…

this weekend I was fortunate to visit the Eskimo village of Kaktovik. And though I have respect for the gentleman from Maryland, we did not eat whale meat or caribou, we ate turkey sandwiches. There are plenty of people that have never…

Personally I think that ANWR should be opened, because I think that we as a community would benefit greatly from it. She says, 'I support the decision that we, the Kaktovik people, need to be involved, because it is us who knows best, us…

That is correct. One of the arguments that we are hearing is that the old oil technology, that old dark industry of the past, is going to ruin the environment. And it is a falsehood to think that new technology and lessons learned from the…

I was fortunate this weekend to visit the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, ANWR, with the gentleman from California (Mr. Pombo) and several Republican congressmen as well as our Democratic colleague, the gentlewoman from Guam (Mr…

Well said. One of the comments that was made to us was really how there have been a few people that have made it as far north as Anchorage, Alaska, but no one has taken the time to go all the way up to the arctic circle in the northernmost…

Americans invested their tax dollars in building a pipeline that runs almost 800 miles from the coastal plain in Prudhoe Bay all the way down to Valdez, millions and billions of dollars, jobs and the economy back in the 1970s when I…

There was discussion during our hearing that the caribou herd actually uses the pipeline structure as a wind sheer or as a warming element to help them in their mating process.
Apr 9, 2003
when I grew up in Arizona, so many people were talking about wind as being the next technology. So many people were implying that the wind energy that we receive would be cost efficient. Now I am hearing they want us to take down the…

I agree. But in essence there are two caribou herds. There are a lot of people who talk about the porcupine caribou herd, whose numbers are about stable; and then there is the coastal plain caribou herd, whose numbers have grown…

One of the points that came up during our hearing was that the impact that the good Eskimo people have made on the land is an impact that they desire. There is a philosophy that they have that the earth was given to them as a gift; that…

in days when wars were fought with bows and arrows, the international doctrine of self-defense said that a nation should not go to war unless attacked. But in these days of weapons of mass destruction and in these days following September…

On March 10, our children who attend public schools in the jurisdiction of the Ninth Circuit Court, including my home State of Arizona, were told not to start their day with the real Pledge of Allegiance. An absurd ruling made by the Ninth…

I take it then from the gentleman's answer that we have no proof that any cures to human beings, never mind even animals, exist; and by the chart the gentleman showed, it actually accelerates the aging of an animal and actually leads to…

I have seen and heard a lot of rhetoric, and recently we had a letter that was sent around by one of our colleagues that favors the research, if we can call it that, on behalf of the Coalition for the Advancement of Medical Research. And I…

I want to congratulate and applaud the gentleman from Florida for his substantive argument tonight based on fact. There is not a lot of emotional rhetoric there. It is truly your research that contains the truth and not their research…
