Congress should support and strengthen policies inclusive of algae energy system development in future energy and climate change legislation and loan guarantees for commercial demonstrations.

We need to make a significant effort to decarbonize coal, and the question is what do you do with that carbon?

I am much more interested in finding is there a way to take this carbon and provide from it beneficial use.

The question isn't whether we use coal. The question is how.

Congress should authorize and appropriate funds for a comprehensive research, development, and demonstration program administered by the U.S. Department of Energy specifically focused on algae energy systems.

The question is not 'whether,' it is 'how' do we address it?

If we are smart and we go about this the right way, we might well find that you can create an asset in terms of trying to deal with what we consider a liability.

This subcommittee is going to try to have an impact on that, and we tried to have an impact on that in the stimulus bill as well to make sure that most of these things tend to move toward the geologic side of things because of CCS.

It is an unbelievable miscarriage of justice, and I have been working on that case for several months.

I believe Dr. Roubideaux will be inheriting an Indian health system that is broken.

All it not hopeless. I think the fact that someone with great qualifications will step forward to say, let me be part of fixing things, that gives me great cause for hope.

We have passed historic and unprecedented increases in V.A. funding.

Clinician shortages are rampant. Significant health disparities permeate Indian Country.

The Indian Health Service is only funded at about one half of its need.

The Indian Health Service is an agency, I believe, with some very serious management problems.

We are going to need your help to work together to write a new Indian Health Care Improvement bill.

We hope very much in this session of Congress, finally, at last, at long, long last, we will get that done.

If we work together, we can fix what's wrong, we can improve it and we can make it right.
