I think when you call an entity one of the most negative--having one of the most negative impacts on our democracy and State sponsored propaganda, and you have control over speech, that is a giant problem, and it certainly shows a lack of…
I have had continuing concerns about you from your previous two hearings and my concerns are only--increased during this hearing.
I urge all my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to oppose your nomination.
You have an anti-rural America view, and it is not just me saying it, Heidi Heitkamp said it.
I don't see how you can be unbiased. It seems to me you have conflicts everywhere, and that makes your impartiality, not to mention your judgment--I think you have very big issues with judgment given your previous tweets.
Damn. That's way out there. Do you think most Republicans are racists and white supremacists?
I don't even know where to begin here. I too am very disturbed with, Miss Sohn, with your tweets.
I want to urge the committee to make sure that we hold the hearings and get Phil Washington's nomination confirmed ASAP.
I just want to say that I certainly would be willing to work with my colleague from Wisconsin on this issue. I have been working on it in good faith with other Members on the other side of the aisle. Maybe, perhaps, she can help me with…
Congress also passed Senator Sullivan's Save Our Seas 2.0 Act in 2020, establishing a new grant to support improvements to municipal recycling programs.
None of this makes sense, particularly when most building materials that we get in Alaska are imported.
Common sense permitting reform is something that every American, regardless of political party, regardless of where you live, agrees with.
We just need the more efficient, timely, certain permitting. We are not cutting corners.
I voted for the bill. It wasn't perfect, but in part because of the permitting provisions. We need more of them, but it was a good start.
It shouldn't take 8 years to permit a bridge. It took 20 years to permit a gold mine.
I was proud to say that my CRA as we call them had a vote on the Senate floor, and it rescinded the Biden permitting CEQ rule.
The only people that helps is the Chinese Communist Party and the radical enviros.
It is so important, and it is remarkable to me that we pass a bill, and then the White House would come out with rules to undermine the very ability to build infrastructure that they have touted.
Can I just get your commitment, if confirmed, that you will implement the policies and funding priorities that we put into law?
Over 82 percent of the communities I represent don't have roads connecting them at all.
It is remarkable how people get away with it. They partner with the radical enviros and shut down the ability to build infrastructure.
