I think it makes two points----

I believe that climate change is real. I believe that climate change is caused by greenhouse gases.

There is no such thing as a Democrat or Republican pothole.

The national airspace may not be as tangible as roads and bridges, but it is part of our infrastructure and the airports are the most tangible part, so certainly recognize the importance of that.

We will certainly seek to complete every mandate in a timely fashion.

we have got to make sure that we are pursuing all of the above.

I cannot accept the proposition that America is not capable of succeeding on this or any other project.

I am committed to implementing this legislation and all safety legislation to the maximum extent possible consistent with the timelines that are laid out.

This absolutely has to be part of a meaningful vision for the future of surface transportation.

They`re bringing a partisan Democrat bill to the floor, and Republicans are poised to oppose it.

It's clear we've got a broken health care system that costs way too much, and we need to figure out how to fix it.

I support an all-of-the-above approach to energy production, but the intermittent nature of solar and wind will leave a gap in baseload power.

Unfortunately, this legislation misses the mark on any meaningful expansion of the pipeline infrastructure that is needed for cleaner-burning, reliable fuel.

What the current administration fails to realize is that the demand for affordable, reliable energy is only going to increase.

I thank you very much. And in closing I have a question for Ms. Timmons.

Instead of rushing to yet another partisan costly and duplicative package through the process, we should all be working with the Biden administration to implement the appropriations from the Energy Act of 2020.

This partisan bill expands authorizations leading to massive taxpayer spending during a time when Americans are trying to return to normal life, and I think that is unfortunate.

The clean energy resource provides benefits in the form of jobs, economic investment, and improved public health.
