Thomas R. Carper: “the definition of insanity is to keep doing the same thing over and over again and expect a different result.”

Last year, the Environment and Public Works Committee held, I think, not one, but a couple of hearings on permitting, common theme at our hearings, on the importance of public engagement.

For too long, the seats have not been filled, and not been filled properly.

I think that's disgraceful.

I hope is that the issues we just discussed... we can keep at it today and see if we can't find a way to yes.
