I do agree with his statement when he talked about the czars are not accountable for their actions to the Congress.

The Chesapeake Bay Program is a regional partnership that was started in 1983.

My State's experience is that heavy handed regulations that ignore economic realities and property rights do not work.

A top down, heavy handed Federal approach will not lead to the kind of real changes that are necessary to ensure the health of the Bay.

NASA paid Boeing a bonus of $425 million for work on the Space Station that ran 8 years late.

The President said he would like to competitively bid everything, even the things that we are trying to do that have not been done yet.

The Department of Defense paid $8 billion in unwarranted bonuses to contractors for weapons programs that had severe cost overruns.

Medicare and Medicaid paid out more than $312 million last year for quality care bonuses to nursing homes that provided below-average care.

Americans think we do not get it up here.

A carbon trade war will hurt Missouri farmers who could no longer export crops overseas and manufacturing workers who could no longer export their products.

I believe we must heed these warnings to protect our Nation's security, and addressing the threats posed by climate change will also bring with it tremendous opportunity.

In other words, unilateral action is not going to do it.

We cannot ignore the consequences of climate change.

Let me be clear. Even if we experience catastrophic changes in climate, the Waxman-Markey bill and its soon to be Senate variant would do nothing to stop it.

I could not agree more. We have got to do that. There is a national security issue there.

Waxman-Markey will kill 2.5 million U.S. jobs, even after including new green jobs.

Waxman-Markey not only threatens our economic security at home with massive job losses, but also threatens our economic security by starting a new international carbon trade war.

If we were to pass something close to the House bill, it would have the effect of making us more, not less, dependent upon other countries.
