To put that into perspective, as a result of pandemic-related learning loss, students may earn $49,000 to $61,000 less over their lifetime.

Clearly, the classroom setting does not heighten children and teachers' risk of severe COVID-19 cases.

We must lean on the scientific facts, and not political fiction.

The American Rescue Plan did not deliver on its promise to help schools safely reopen in this fall.

The current surge we are experiencing in COVID-19 related hospitalizations began in June, long before schools reopened.

Our top priority must be protecting children's access to classrooms for full-time, in-person learning.

We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to make transformative investments in our energy economy--investments that will protect our planet, help keep our communities healthy, and promote shared prosperity.

As we rebuild after the pandemic, we must liberate our energy sector.

These reforms shouldn't be a partisan issue.

I think it's a fool's errand to try to radically transform the greatest economy in the world and have this in a way that picks winners and losers.

I think we need to make decisions also with respect to the United States contribution, again relative to the rest of the world including China and other much larger polluters, and much bigger problems.

So let me get this straight. We've given more favorable NEPA regulatory treatment to oil and gas drilling on Federal lands, than we have to geothermal drilling on Federal land?

Ultimately, the best energy future is one that allows the American people to innovate.

We must liberate our energy sector. We must reduce regulatory barriers to developing nuclear, hydro, geothermal and other forms of energy.
